Spa bathrobes are popular and are used so often because
they are a unique item of clothing that fills in the gap between ‘dressed’ and
‘not dressed’. There are many situations
in life where you would feel a little bit strange wearing your pajamas but you
don’t want to get fully dressed. Spa bathrobes are the perfect in-between
option for these moments because they are more formal than pajamas but they are
less work than actually getting dressed.
Examples of These Halfway Situations
What sorts of situations warrant this look that is
halfway between getting dressed and wearing sleepwear? One example is when you
quickly leave the house to perform a chore outside, such as taking out the
recycling bin, picking up the mail or heading to the laundry room of your
apartment complex. Although you are visible to the outside world, you are still
within a very short distance to your home and therefore this situation is
considered semi-private. You would look very strange doing this in your
underwear or in your sleepwear, but wearing a bathrobe makes it more
acceptable.
Another situation is when a guest surprises you
unannounced and you don’t have time to dress before opening the door. Wearing spa bathrobes is acceptable in this
situation and protects your modesty. You can welcome your guest into your home,
make them a drink and then excuse yourself to go get dressed. Neither you nor
your guest will be embarrassed by the spa bathrobes, but both of you would
likely be if you answered the door in your sleepwear or in your underwear.
Sometimes, depending on how well you know the other
members of your household, eating breakfast can be another one of these
in-between situations that spa bathrobes are perfect for. This makes things
convenient when you just want to eat before getting ready.
