PAJAMA PARTY PEOPLE
I’m a big believer in wearing something cute in even your most casual moments - like going to bed.
I know for a lot of us, our pajamas are the one part of our wardrobe that becomes the catch all for all the leftover bits of our closet - the old sports tee from high school, for example. However, in the spirit of “what we put on our body influences how we perceive ourselves”, wearing something cute & put-together to bed can be such a positive boost to our self esteem. I also appreciate the fact that I can answer the door, take a facetime call, or walk to the mailbox without embarrassment! Added plus - a crisp pajama set will hold up to wear/washes far better than an old t-shirt or yoga pants.
However, when I was postpartum with my babies was when I really appriciated that I had switched to pajama sets. Right from the beginning at the hospital, having a put together look that I could sleep in one minute & talk to a Dr. the next, really made such a difference! Also - a button up shirt is hands down the best breast-feeding top there is (in my opinion), so a standard pajama set has got you covered there. I lived in my pajama sets for those sleepless newborn weeks!
So with the final weeks of winter coziness ahead, lets dig into a few great pajama options available right now.
J Crew’s crisp poplin sets are my hands down favorite - I usually add one a year during a sale to my collection. I have my eye on that green stripe set above! J Crew Factory is also, no slouch in this department - I’ve linked several super cute affordable options. The new hotshot this year in pajamas is Gap actually - with several good looking poplin options available (I love that raspberry pink one!). Finally, don’t sleep on Boden’s sleepwear, this cute floral print is such a stunner! Happy shopping and I hope I’ve inspired you to invest a little in your cozy “down time” wardrobe … because those are the moments life is lived in.
