How to Style Pajamas as Daywear: 10 Ways

While self-quarantining at home, this is the perfect time to explore how to style pajamas as daywear. And then as we gather in public again, this is always a comfortable style that can be made chic for around town and for evenings. Age doesn’t matter!

Best of all, you can drop into bed at the end of a tiring day without changing…or rather, my favorite is to get up in the morning already dressed. 😉 All you have to do is accessorize for day.

When my kids were in high school, the girls started wearing pajama pants to school in place of their regular pants, skirts or jeans.  And they managed to look perfectly normal.  After that, I learned from my daughter that I could go about town in pajama pants as long as they looked presentable (such as plaid, etc.) So if I was just going to run out to the store or something like that, I would wear a t-shirt and a pair of plaid pajama pants with street shoes and accessories.

And a velvet pajama set that has a camisole top can actually be used year round.
