For rather obvious reasons, I’m not the sort of person who’s seduced by fantasies of time travel. I love a good costume drama (the wardrobe in Outlander is outstanding this season, by the way), but I have no desire to live in any century other than the one we’re in right now.

As my thoughts drift to the first summer spent in my new home, I can’t but feel excited at the thought of updating my predominately gray and black wardrobe with brighter, more climate-appropriate pieces.

I first saw this robe at Lingerie Market back in February, and I’ve been waiting patiently until it was available for sale. Aesethetically, what I like most about Underprotection’s Anika Robe (apart from the loose, unstructured style), is its painterly abstract print. It reminds me […]
