The robes are so stylish you can wear them as a bathroom essential at home or as loungewear for a poolside cocktail.
It's made with soft terry cotton on the inside and out, allowing you to wrap yourself in warming comfort after a bath or shower.
The playful robe with red and pink stripes and a blazing blue belt has been flying off shelves, with shoppers pointing out the affordable price point.
There's also a green and white robe with a vibrant red belt, perfect for tying the belt below the stomach or higher up depending on what you prefer.

'Obsessed with this robe and even more obsessed with the price tag,' one said.
'Wait, is this a Hommey dupe?' another asked.
'OMG yes I need it,' one shared.
'I love colours. The towel material is pretty nice. Excited to take this to the pool and beach,' another added.
Perfect for lazy evenings or by the pool, the robes make a fun wardrobe addition.
'With SKOGSSALLAT textile bathroom accessories, I wanted to make daily routines a bit comfier and more fun with playful designs for the whole family to enjoy,' Darja Nordberg, the designer behind the robes, said.
'I certainly didn't hold back on colour. The vivid stripes offer a modern take on iconic IKEA stripe patterns, and the products team up perfectly with SLÅNHÖSTMAL towels.
'I hope these functional accessories bring a sense of joy and well-being each time they are used.'
The robes are part of the new SKOGSSALLAT range, featuring $5 slippers, a $15 bath poncho with hood, $5 toiletry bag and $4 eye mask.

I'm a mum of 12 – £4.50 IKEA buy is a live-saver for our busy council house bathroom, it lasts forever too
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A MUM-OF-12 has revealed the bargain IKEA buy she swears by to keep on top of the busy family bathroom. Zoe, 47, and Ben Sullivan, 50, and their bumper brood make up one of Scotland's biggest families. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 3 Mum-of-12 Zoe Sullivan swears by an IKEA gadget for her bathroom Credit: Zoe Sullivan 3 The mum admits it's hard to store all the family's toiletries in the bathroom Credit: Zoe Sullivan 3 The IKEA caddy has racked up rave five-star reviews Credit: Zoe Sullivan The pair are parents to Elizabeth, 20, Olivia, 18, Noah, 15, Eva, 13, Toby, 12, Agnes, seven, Joseph, six, Flo, three, and two sets of twins, Charlotte and Isabelle, 17, and Leah and Erin, nine. They live in a six-bedroom council house in Burghead, Moray, where they regularly document their hectic lives on their YouTube channel. With 14 people sharing two bathrooms, Zoe said she has to clean the space "all the time". And storage for everybody's toiletries can be a nightmare. In a short social media video, Zoe said: "We were in desperate need of some new bathroom caddies. "I had these metal ones which have been okay. I got them from B&M, but obviously because they get wet all the time they rust really easily and they don't stick all that well." The mum then stumbled across the perfect £4.50 buy from IKEA. Hailing the TISKEN basket with suction cup, she said: "These are great if you don't want to drill anything into the wall, especially if you are renting. "We've got a lot of stuff in the bathroom. There's a lot of people and this is our main bathroom. "But once you stick those things down, they are not going anywhere. I was fed up of my council bathroom looking like a s--thole so transformed it with stick on tiles & an £80 shower screen "They're plastic so they don't rust, easily cleaned just and they they're massive. They hold so much." IKEA bosses say the caddie "puts things within easy reach" without having to drill any holes into your walls. They add: "The tight-grip suction cups won't let go of smooth surfaces like glass or tiles – unless you want them to." And Zoe isn't the only person raving about them, with the handy gadget racking up five-star reviews on the website. One person said: "I was concerned about it staying put, due to only the suction hooks that hold it secure against the surface. This is unbelievable secure. Brilliant." A second wrote: "Bought these because all the metal ones I have bought have rusted. Basic but holds a ton of products. Very secure when installed. We have some texture on our tiles and it's still very secure." Meanwhile, a third added: "Bought this for all the bottles that drive me mad in the shower. "Hubby was skeptical,said wouldn't hold etc but he's been proven wrong, so strong and stays out even full of bottles and no chrome to rust either!"

Jackson Warne reveals how his late father Shane inspired his surprise new career move: 'It's therapy for me'
Jackson Warne has revealed how his new career move is 'therapy' to help him cope with the loss of his father, Shane Warne. The 26-year-old has launched his new podcast, Warnes Way, and explains how he pays tribute to his dad on set. 'We've got a studio we've set up which is in dad's old office so it feels like he's there,' Jackson told the Herald Sun. 'We've got all his memorabilia, his book, his ashtray, it's really special.' Jackson says that he and his dad had originally planned to do a father-and-son podcast together back in 2018, but it never happened. With guests who knew his dad - such as Eddie McGuire and Mark Howard - Jackson says the podcast has served as a means of healing his grief. 'I'm also treating it as a bit of therapy for me,' the professional poker player said. 'I don't see a therapist but when I talk to people like Mark Howard and Eddie McGuire it's so personal and we talk about stories with dad.' Jackson announced the new podcast in an Instagram post earlier this week. 'First episode goes live Monday the 11th of August. Listen and watch on YouTube and Spotify,' he explained in his caption. Guests will include Aaron Finch and Andrew Bassat. The podcast is edited and filmed by Jackson's girlfriend, Kiah Broadsmith. Legendary cricketer Shane Warne died aged 52 from a heart attack while on holiday in Koh Samui, Thailand. It comes after Jackson revealed a personal victory on Instagram, having committed to an entire year without alcohol following his cricket star father's death. In an inspiring display of resilience, he chose to honour his father's memory not with sorrow, but with a dedication to health and clarity. Jackson shared the goal he set for himself at the start of 2023, to remain alcohol-free for the whole year. He wanted to demonstrate a healthier way to cope with life's hardships, especially after experiencing the immense loss of his beloved father. After his father tragically died, Jackson said he could've let his grief ruin him and instead set out on a journey of wellness. He decided to focus on his health, and to channel his trauma into 'energy for life' and was delighted with how much progress he made. Jackson revealed the fruits of his gym labours, admitting that he had shed an impressive 15kg. It wasn't without struggle though, with Jackson revealing his biggest barrier to weight loss success - fast food. 'I miss Maccas,' Jackson admitted.

Ben Cousins looks fit enough to play at age 47 - but he has a VERY unhealthy food habit that's been caught on video
Ben Cousins is set to make his return to the footy pitch and will line up next to Cyril Rioli for an AFL Legends game at Marvel Stadium on August 28. The West Coast Eagles legend, now 47, retired from AFL footy nearly 15 years ago and the offer to pull the boots back on proved too sweet for him. 'I think it might be time to dust them [the footy boots] off. One game, hey? I can get myself up for one! It should be a bit of fun… I'm looking forward to it,' Cousins said on Mix94.5's Pete & Kymba on Monday. And ahead of the match, the 2005 Brownlow Medallist is looking in tip-top shape, publishing several snaps of himself on social media, cutting a toned figure during a recent holiday in Broome. However, while Cousins has been working on his fitness of late, he's also been seen enjoying a few sweet treats. The Eagles premiership winner has appeared on Mix94.5 in recent months to rank the best cinnamon scroll in Perth. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Mix94.5 (@mix945perth) West Coast great Ben Cousins is looking shredded as he looks to make a return to the pitch The station took to Instagram on Wednesday to publish a clip of Cousins tucking into multiple pastries, laughing and grinning as he sampled each one. At the end of the tasting session, Cousins ranked Cottesloe-based North Street Store's cinnamon scroll as his favourite. Cousins has credited his body transformation to clean living and strict training discipline. 'I wouldn't even butter my toast,' the footy great explained, describing the diligent lengths he has gone to, in order to stay fit and healthy. The Eagles star, who hung up his boots in 2010 after a season-long spell with Richmond, blends weight training, cardio and recovery days into his programme, while also focusing on holistic wellness. He is one of several huge names set to take to the field at the Marvel Stadium at the end of August, revealing the player who he was most excited to play alongside. 'Shane Crawford is the coach; Nick Riewoldt is the captain. I only decided [to play] over the weekend. But, for me, the chance to play alongside Cyril, you know? I'm excited about that,' he said. 'It's a big thing; he was just such a great player. The 47–year–old has kept himself in great shape – and joked 'how hard can it be?' when he was asked about having just over three weeks to prepare for the AFL Legends match 'Everyone's situation is different but because he was 28 when he stopped playing, we all felt he had so much good footy left in him. 'To see him run around and have a kick is so exciting and I'm looking forward to handpassing to him or getting one off him!' Cousins was reminded that the game was looming on the horizon, with only three weeks to go until the big day. But on the prospect of returning to the footy pitch he replied: 'It's supposed to be like riding a bike, isn't it? 'It's a young man's game but I can get myself up for one, surely. How hard can it be?'
