Pajamas
I have to wear clothes when I sleep. Even if it's hot out. I wasn't raised by some French grad students or whatever. To sleep naked is unseemly. Also, how can one sleep naked when there looms the ever-present possibility of: what if there's a fire in the middle of the night and you have to run out into the street?
I love pajamas. But I'm incredibly fussy about them. For one thing, the worst thing that ever happened to pajamas is when flannel decided to make itself inextricably linked to them. Flannel pajamas are the worst ever! When is it ever so freaking cold that you need flannel pajamas? Even on the coldest of east coast nights, after about thirty seconds of wearing them, you're like, ugh, why am I so hot? Why am I all sweaty and gross when all I signed up for was a nice night of sleep?
I guess Russian soldiers stationed in the deepest frozen corners of their country have to wear them. But that's about it.
Oh, and don't even get me into flannel sheets. WTF??
Solid, crisp cotton pajamas are the worlds best gift. I want to put them on the instant I get home from work.
Burberry Men's PJ's are great. For women too. Get them in a small and you'll be set. The cotton is soft but ever-so-slightly firm, so they don't get all twisty around your torso or give you a wedgie when you sleep.
If you don't like the "I'm wearing my boyfriends clothing" look (which, by the way, why don't you?), Betsey Johnson has some cute cotton blend pjs I love a lot. These are animal print, which I adore and highly recommend (because animal print is so hard to pull of as daywear without seeming like a hooker or a weird off-kilter granny, it kind of behooves you to wear them in your sleep, where you have freedom of expression.)
They're polyester but feel like satin. Who wears satin pajamas, by the way? If I have to DRY CLEAN MY SLEEPWEAR I think it's time to kill myself.
And last, but not least, these gorgeous little fun Natori Chinese-inspired pjs.
Ahhh, how cute. How could a person wearing these pjs ever sleep alone? Not possible.
Good for: Everyone must wear pajamas.
