The Luxury In Being Comfortable

As some of you already know, I love to be cozy.

robe: Tiny Closet Collection (fabric: Michael Levine Fabrics)

Even if I'm out and about, I have the tendency to marinate in the same coffee shop/bar/restaurant for hours so my clothes are primarily customized to allow me to do that.  There's a sexy luxury in comfort.  

And though I always have some project I'm knee deep in, zooming around just isn't for me so I like that most of my projects keep me at home. So I can get even more cozy!


Lounging in my new robe on Wednesday and waiting for my hair to dry, instead of emailing or writing up an outline for yet another project, I decided to chill and catch up on my favorite neighborhood read.  And also squeeze in a little interior decor inspiration!


I usually wear some super-soft jersey articles but ever since I started going to the spa once a week, I've been so addicted to lounging in the cotton robes they provide.  It wasn't the first time I've put on a robe but it was the first time I put on a good fitting robe.  I loved the fitting and the feel so much that I decided to design my own.  

What I love most about this delicious robe?  The fabric.  It's the drapiest, softest rayon with an absolutely gorgeous print.  I adore it!  I want to make like five more but sadly, all I need is one, you know? haha :)  Forever, a minimalist.


With special pieces like this robe, it makes me love my closet.  It also inspires me to continue making my Tiny Closet unique and meaningful because anything else hanging next to it will just pale in comparison!

Forget the fancy and expensive.  Even if you can't be bothered with sewing, it is very possible and actually makes a difference to have a great quality, well fitting comfortable wardrobe that aligns artistically with your taste.  

I mean, that's what luxury really is.

  1. The robe is super comfy looking, and you've got that so right about having one that actually fits. I'm digging your side table with the rustic-ness, the Ikat fabric chair, (I bet you did that, too, didn't ya creative one?) and I so adore Domimo; have tons of their magazines but haven't purchased that book yet.
    Okay, on to the matter at hand here; I don't want to be bothered with sewing nothing!; therefore, I'll await when TINY CLOSET COLLECTION launches her business and make us ALL one happy little, tiny-consumer wardrobe wearing sistas!

  2. This is a really great robe! Where did you get it? I am about your same height, and I have a very hard time finding robes that are beautiful, feminine, and do not swallow me up.

    1. Hi there! Thank you so much for the compliment! I made it myself. If you're looking for some beautiful, unique robes you might want to check Etsy. They're fill of gems. Or you might just wanna wait to see if I start selling mine :) heehee!

    1. Hi Lisa! Thank you! I go to a really inexpensive day spa, it's a Korean bath house. They have saunas, steam rooms and different pools and I that's what I do when I go :) Most importantly, I also do my hair. In fact, I haven't washed my hair at home in months LOL! If I'm going to wash my hair once a week and it's going to be an ordeal, I might as well make it an enjoyable ordeal.

    1. Thanks Ebony! No, I was actually just drying my hair. I put my hair up and I thought I'd dry it in a helmet instead of a blowdryer :)
