Gorgeous Apparel and Gifts from Texeresilk
As a woman, I love going shopping for new apparel and accessories. With that said, I am pretty picky about what I buy for myself, my family and the items I buy to give as gifts. I shop for unique pieces that are quality-made, affordable and versatile.

Valentine’s Day is just around the corner and now is the time to shop for your special romantic gifts or buy something for yourself to wear on Valentine’s Day!
The company sent me a gorgeous 100% Silk Women’s Short Robe in a beautiful Rose Bouquet print to review for all of you. In the past, I’ve reviewed 2 previous items for this company and I can honestly tell you that I am more impressed with them each time!
For the purpose of this review, I had my mother model the silk robe for us. We did it outside (our power was out) so please excuse the not-so-perfect photos with the wind howling 30 mph.
The robe is made out of 100% super smooth 19mm silk. It is cut in a kimono style and features exquisite hand painted bouquets of red and pink roses. It has red trim around the sleeves, collar, pockets and includes a self-tie belt. There are front pockets on each side and an inside modesty tie to keep the robe securely closed.
Hand washing is recommended but you can also machine wash (gentle cycle) and it is dry cleanable. Personally, I washed mine twice on the gentle cycle and hung it to air dry…looks perfect!
I really love the Kimono style because it is cut in a relaxed way and allows me to wear slinky or heavy-weight items underneath it. I don’t know about all of you, but I don’t like skin-tight robes that cling all over me. This one is cut beautifully and fits like a dream! Furthermore, I love that it’s not an all-over “gaudy” looking floral pattern…it’s done very tastefully and it’s not too much at all. Just perfect!
This would make the perfect Valentine’s Day gift to give to your sweetie (hint to all of the guys out there) or buy it for yourself and wear it for Valentine’s Day to surprise your special someone!
Head on over to Texere Silk and take a look around. I know you will love what you see!
