    I would like to buy a bath robe for my mother for her birthday. Seeing as I've never worn/bought one, I was wondering where the best place is to get one?

    I was thinking of just heading into Dunnes?

    Necessities are warm and comfy:)

    Well, kinda depends on your mums age group??
    Marks & Spencers sometimes have a nice ranger of robes and p.j.'s.
    You could also get some nice bubble bath and stuff like that, it always gets used.

    Marks and spencers or TK Maxx would be your best bet

    The Per Una range in M&S do particularly soft robes. Highly recommend.

    Went and picked up one of those Per Una bath robes earlier. They are nice indeed, although I didn't get one for myself, bit too girly for me:)

    Thanks for the suggestions folks, tis very much appreciated.
