Here's a theory: There are two types of people when it comes to how we work from home. There's the type that's up early, teeth brushed, and pants (yes, actual pants!) on before the caffeine hits. Then there's the rest of us... Those who only change out of our comfy pajamas when there's a Zoom meeting on the calendar. Even though we're all about the lazy excellence of a matching sweatsuit, we've found ourselves shifting our fashion focus to another article of minimum-effort attire that'll actually appeal to both sets of WFH-ers.

Introducing the drobe — a name (that we just made up, TBH) for a garment with big potential. It's a robe-type piece that's perfectly suited for the indoors but can double as a dress if and when you need it to. Think Zsa Zsa Gabor levels of glam but Snuggie levels of comfort. But we're not talking about fluffy bathrobes here (although that's one piece of loungewear everyone can get behind). Think more of the flowy type that cascades into the perfect silhouette when fastened at the waist. If your robe's got enough coverage along with a motif that deserves to be appreciated, go ahead and add a pair of chunky mules to the ensemble and call it a dress. You may be concerned about a more secure closure for outdoor wear, but that's nothing a slip, tank, or a little dab of fabric tape can't fix. The look is sleek, simple, and easy-to-wear for clocking in that couch time, joining friends for a cyber cocktail, and then joining them IRL when the time finally comes.

Ahead, we've rounded up a selection of drobes that'll carry you through this period of self-isolation while reserving its spot in your outside outfit rotation too. And if you're not ready to dive right into this daring trend, we've included a few robes that function well as cardigans, coatigans, and oversized tops too. So stay stylish, stay inside, and if you're going to shop, buy something that'll last long after quarantine.

At Refinery29, we’re here to help you navigate this overwhelming world of stuff. All of our market picks are independently selected and curated by the editorial team. If you buy something we link to on our site, Refinery29 may earn commission.

After fiercely defending Piers Morgan’s treatment of Meghan Markle, Sharon Osbourne has been accused of racist and homophobic behavior by several people, including past The Talk co-host Leah Remini. Specifically, Osbourne was accused of directing offensive and dangerous comments at her co-hosts, behind-the-scenes. Former colleagues are coming forward with their accounts of these alleged statements.

According to Remini, who spoke with journalist Yashar Ali, Osbourne “would frequently refer to then-co-host Julie Chen, who is Chinese American, as ‘wonton’ and ‘slanty eyes.'” Osbourne was also accused of referring to co-host Sara Gilbert, who is openly gay, as “pussy licker” and “fish eater.” On Tuesday, Ali published a report which detailed Osbourne’s long record of insulting former co-hosts, Chen and Gilbert, as well as Holly Robinson Peete who, in a tweet, accused Osbourne of saying she was “too ghetto” for the show.

Osbourne’s publicist, Howard Bragman, denied the allegations, releasing a statement: “The only thing worse than a disgruntled former employee is a disgruntled former talk show host. For 11 years Sharon has been kind, collegial and friendly with her hosts as evidenced by throwing them parties, inviting them to her home in the UK and other gestures of kindness too many to name. Sharon is disappointed but unfazed and hardly surprised by the lies, the recasting of history and the bitterness coming out at this moment. She will survive this, as she always has and her heart will remain open and good, because she refuses to let others take her down. She thanks her family, friends and fans for standing by her and knowing her true nature.”

Remini, however, says that Osbourne needs to be held accountable for those statements. “Coming from Scientology, where racism, bullying, and bigotry is taught, I had to unlearn a lot. I’m still learning and hopefully evolving,” Remini said. “I can’t say that Sharon has focused on the work she needs to do.”

These allegations come just a week after Osbourne was called out for defending Piers Morgan during a segment of The Talk when co-host Sheryl Underwood explained how Morgan’s discounting of Meghan Markle’s mental health struggles verged on racism. Osbourne defended Morgan, but later issued a lengthy statement on Twitter where she apologized to “anyone of color” who she may have offended, adding, “There are very few things that hurt my heart more than racism so to feel associated with that spun me fast!”

Osbourne also directly denied Peete’s allegations that she called her “too ghetto.” “It’s an absolute lie — a 110 percent lie. That’s not in my vocabulary. I don’t speak like that,” she told Variety. “The only ghetto I know is the Warsaw Ghetto, and I think that’s the only time I’ve ever referred to something like that.” But Ali’s report noted that in a January 2011 episode of The Talk, Osbourne used the word “ghetto” to refer to Remini’s Brooklyn accent.

Osbourne has reportedly sent Peete a cease and desist letter demanding she take down her tweet or face litigation. The tweet currently remains online. Neither Chen nor Gilbert has commented on the accusations publicly yet, but on Monday, CBS announced that The Talk is taking a temporary hiatus so that it could investigate the exchange between Underwood and Osbourne.

"A Really Bad Day" Will Never Be An Excuse To Kill

What To Know About The Atlanta Parlor Shootings

Why Violence Against Asian-Americans Is Spreading

On Tuesday night, Robert Aaron Long, a 21-year-old white man from Woodstock, Georgia, was taken into custody following a series of shootings that killed eight people — six of whom were Asian women. His first attack, at around 5 p.m., took place at Young’s Asian Massage Parlor, about 30 miles north of Atlanta and 15 minutes away from Long’s home. Less than an hour later, two more shootings in northeast Atlanta were reported. Long has confessed to all three attacks, according to Atlanta police.

Long killed four people and injured a fifth at Young’s Asian Massage in Acworth, Georgia. According to NPR, police then received a call about a robbery at Atlanta’s Gold Spa, and when they arrived at the scene, they found three women dead. Immediately after, they were alerted to a third attack at the Aroma Therapy Spa across the street, where a fourth woman had been killed. Sgt. John Chafee, an Atlanta police spokesman, said it was “extremely likely our suspect is the same as Cherokee County’s.” 

The Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office said that, after releasing surveillance footage from the first attack, the police were contacted by Long’s family, who identified their son and helped authorities track him down. Investigators believe he was headed to Florida to carry out more attacks when he was captured and taken into custody, about 150 miles south of Atlanta, on Tuesday night. He is currently facing murder charges and will appear in court for an arraignment on Thursday morning.

Long graduated from Sequoyah High School in 2017. The bio of an Instagram reportedly belonging to Long reads: “Pizza, guns, drums, music, family, and God. This pretty much sums up my life.” A former classmate told The Daily Beast that the shooter was “very innocent seeming and wouldn’t even cuss,” “sorta nerdy,” “a hunter,” and “big into religion.”

Officials have hesitated to ascribe a motive to Long’s actions, which clearly targeted Asian women during a time of rampant anti-Asian hate crimes in America. Sheriff Frank Reynolds, an official from Cherokee County, said that he interviewed Long and found “indicators that he has some issues, potentially sexual addiction.”

When asked directly whether racism was a motive, Reynolds said that “the indicators right now are it may not be,” and that Long reportedly “frequented these places in the past and may have been lashing out.” However, he added, law enforcement is still only beginning its investigation.

“He claims that these — and as the chief said, it’s still early — but he does claim that it’s not racially motivated,” Cherokee County’s Capt. Jay Baker added. “He apparently has an issue, what he considers a sex addiction, and sees these locations as something that allows him to go to these places and it’s a temptation for him that he wanted to eliminate.” 

All but two of Long’s victims were Asian women. At least two out of the three spas are Asian-owned businesses, and all three, reportedly, have many Asian employees — something Long probably knew if, as Reynolds and Baker claim, he frequented the spas. On top of that, many have noted that salon and spa work is often gendered: According to census data, there is an overwhelmingly large number of women working as spa managers, massage therapists, and massage technicians compared to men.

Citing “sex addiction” without the added context of who the victims are and how Long related them to his alleged addiction is just a way of dismissing the fact that Long’s actions were rooted in racism, misogyny, and entitlement toward women. Specifically, Asian American women working low-wage jobs. As Phi Nguyen, litigation director at Asian Americans Advancing Justice’s Atlanta chapter, told The Los Angeles Times, “That the Asian women murdered yesterday were working highly vulnerable and low-wage jobs during an ongoing pandemic speaks directly to the compounding impacts of misogyny, structural violence and white supremacy.”

One of Baker’s most alarming comments, however, wasn’t about Long’s “temptation” at all; instead, it was when he said: “[Long] was pretty much fed up and at the end of his rope. It was a really bad day for him, and this is what he did.”

Police officials promote the idea that men like Long are “troubled,” or “struggling” or dealing with “issues” instead of saying what it is that troubles them or what those issues are — namely, racism and misogyny. Rather than using coded words as a way of dismissing Long’s actions, officials should let those actions speak for themselves, and not be afraid to call this rampage what it was: a crime fueled by hate, not just a “really bad day.”

We know (and love) Billie Eilish in part for her signature neon-green hair. In the past, the “Ocean Eyes” singer has tried pastel blue and a purplish gray, but her two-toned green-and-black hair is just her signature — or was. If a recent sighting is any indication, Eilish has officially said goodbye to her green roots and hello to a more conventional hair color: bright blonde.

On Instagram today, Eilish posted a clip from what appears to be the set of a photoshoot or music video. The roughly eight-second shot shows Eilish throwing her head back in a hair flip to debut her new hairstyle, a voluminous buttery-blonde feathered blowout with bangs.

Whether this new cut and color is the real deal or a very realistic-looking wig, we can’t say for sure quite yet. However, we’d wager the former, as Eilish has teased a big hair transformation for a few months now. “Can you guess what color?” Eilish posted on her Instagram Stories before debuting her new look, which suggests that the color was likely pre-planned and involved bleach as opposed to a temporary wig.

Should the new look stick around, it’s a major change for the Grammy-winning musician, both in color and in overall aesthetic. Still, fans are already on board, blowing up the comments section with heart and fire emojis to celebrate this new era of Eilish as a bombshell blonde.
