How to Wear Pajamas in Public and Look Chic

This just might be the very best trend ever invented — wearing pajamas during the daytime, outside the house like real clothes. Yes, my grandma would surely cringe, but she didn’t have to work and watch and educate her kids during a global pandemic, so I’m not going to stress too much if I don’t have time to get dressed in the morning. Well, actually, even on days I do miraculously have time, I would rather be comfy, knowing I’m not going anywhere and working from home and chasing after the kids all day. Still, if you’re heading to drop off/pick up or to the grocery store, you risk running into someone you know especially if you live in a small town like I do, so you don’t want to look like a total hot mess. That’s why I put together this guide for how to wear pajamas during the daytime, outside the house and still look chic.

Whether worn together or as separates, silky pajama tops and bottoms look just as chic for the office as they do for a night out or a weekend. The best part? You’re wearing your pjs! How could you not get in on this trend? It’s perfect if you’re transitioning back to the office or real life, and can’t quite let go of your comfy clothes. I also love it for hosting a dinner party — so chic without trying in a way that both impresses and puts everyone at ease. Here are ideas and inspiration I’m loving for how to wear pajamas outside the house without looking like a total mess.
