the red robe



photos by Cecilia Austin

I wear this robe more than anything else in my wardrobe. A close friend was having a sidewalk sale and the robe was hanging there, beckoning to me. It wasn't until I brought it home that I realized it matched my bedding perfectly! And bed is exactly where I want to be when I'm wearing it, all cozy and warm and reading my silly books. Preferably with Donut by my side, getting her white fur all over me.

Every time I see Donut my heart gives a little jump. I can't get over how much she looks like my Chilli.

The robe is fabulous - I just bought myself a new one today, all blue and fuzzy. I feel like the Cookie Monster, which is brilliant!

Aaah Donut is SO CUTE!! She looks like a big kitty, too, like all of my cats. Excellent for snuggling :)

That robe is gorgeous! How funny that it matches your bed perfectly, too.

That robe looks a bit 50s housewife to me. All you need is a headscarf covering your rollers and a cigarette and you're all set!

Haha.. such a cute series of photos - It's just crying out for some sarcastic cartoon thought bubbles!

MOST excellent. there's nothing better than a good robe. it's up there in significance with good outerwear, shoes and mattresses. especially for us loungers, anyway.

that deep sea book looks rad!
