How exhausted are you right now? If you’re like millions of Australians out there, the answer is simple: VERY. That’s because we’re working our butts off right now. There’s always a deadline to meet, a meeting to attend, and attending your kid’s football game/piano recital/karate class.
Let’s face it, we’re all burning the candle from both ends and there’s no end in sight. It’s not just work and chauffeuring the kids from point A to point B either, there are bills to pay, finances to manage, and don’t forget the Larsens housewarming party on Saturday night. You may want to sit down and have a meal once in awhile so be sure you get to the supermarket soon to stock up the house (you can’t rely on Uber Eats every night!).
It seems there’s just so little time to get it all done anymore and with a busy work schedule, an active social calendar (whether it’s yours or your kids’ – or both), and the ever-present litany of chores to do around the house, you’re lucky to get maybe five to six hours of sleep a night.
How many times have you said to yourself or your significant other or your best friend or even the cat, “I could really use a vacation”? Probably more times than you care to count and while that would be so wonderful, you likely utter “I wish” in the very next same breath. The cat looks up at you and you like to think that, hopefully, she feels your pain.
Well we all do, because we’ve all been there! We’re all exhausted, we’re not getting enough sleep, we’re staying up too late to get tomorrow’s things done on time. That expense report, that English paper, that costume for your daughter’s school play. It all needs to be done now.
It can all get to be a little overwhelming before too long and you begin to wonder when you’re going to get a break? What’s the solution here?
Two words: spa robes.
Spa. Robes. Can you think of two more fluffy and familiar words in the English (or any other) language? Just say them out loud. Spa robes. The first thing you think of is comfort. Cushion-y, cloud-soft comfort. When was the last time you took off all your clothes and wrapped yourself in a spa robe?
Not a bathrobe or any of those other pretenders to the throne of softness and pleasure. We’re talking about spa robes here. A spa robe is a luxury all its own. You slip one arm at a time into those lush sleeves and there’s an immediate realisation you’re about to envelope yourself into something special. Something relaxing. Something you’re never going to want to take off again.
The Fascination With Spa Robes
When you put on a spa robe, you know it’s going to be a memorable experience. How come every robe doesn’t feel like this? It’s a question everyone asks themselves at some point. It’s pretty obvious that spa robes aren’t just like all of the others. They’re made of unique materials that are designed to bring the highest levels of happiness possible to a human being.
All kidding aside, what makes spa robes so special? Is it the opulence, the warmth, the complete and total gratification of feeling the garment against your bare skin? Well yes, it’s all of those things and they’re all possible as a result of the materials used in the manufacturing of the robe.
So what kind of incredible components go into the ideal spa robe? Turns out there are many companies out there making “spa robes” (I use quotes because many of these so-called robes are hardly spa quality). It’s important that you do the research to ensure that you are well and truly getting your hands on a spa robe that gives you all of the spa-quality comforts that you expect to enjoy.
Then what are those materials? Exactly which robes should you be considering over the others? For starters you want something that isn’t just soft and supple, but almost otherworldly in its tenderness. How does doeskin sound? Not the actual skin of a baby deer mind you, a space-age microfiber that feels just like the real thing in terms of delicate coziness. If you were selecting an outer shell for the ideal robe, wouldn’t that be the material you would personally select?
The outer shell is merely the beginning and it should be an indication of what’s to come. Reaching for this robe should provide you with a subtle hint of what it feels like to wear.
When you’re talking about linings of spa robes, only certain fabrics will do and when you’re really in the market for the kind of spa robe you can only find in professional spas and resorts you look for something like warm long loop terry cloth. What makes this material so appealing is that it can absorb moisture (like if you step out of a pool or hot tub) but remain lightweight at the same time.
Now you combine doeskin and long loop terry together into one luxurious spa robe and you have the very definition of elegance and comfort that you might daydream about lounging around in all day.
Fortunately, this type of robe is out there and available for the home. You know longer need to wish for that relaxing vacation between entries on your calendar. You have the option of finishing your long, hard day in the same comfortable spa robe that you might request from the front desk of that lavish resort to which you’ve escaped for the weekend.
While that escape may only exist in your fantasies, the robe is very real and you can have it today. You can bring a little piece of that dream vacation to your living room and use it to recharge those emotional and physical batteries until the time comes where you are able to take a real holiday.
One of these days….right?
