PYJAMAS ALL DAY EVERYDAY

We all wish we could stay in our pyjamas all day long, well I do. So this trend could be exactly what we've all been waiting for. Its not really anything new, in fact its been hot on the runway and the front row for a couple of years. Its hasn't ever properly transferred down to the high street though, until now. I was killing some time (surprising I know with a 1 year old), and ended up online (surprise) browsing at whats going to be hot in the new year. On Topshop Boutique I stumbled across the most glam collection of Pyjama style day wear and decided this is exactly what I want to be wearing. So I thought I'd take some of the Boutique collection as well as some bits from the rest of the high street that I found and give my take on pyjamas as a wearable trend.

So the look (above centre) shows exactly how the a-listers of fashion have been sporting the trend. Full on Satin classic pyjama shirts and matching wide leg trousers. To really go designer you can even go for an eye catching patterned pyjama. I realise though some of us may not be ready to do toddler group sporting such a dramatic look. So I had a look on the high street for some bits for day and night to still give a nod to the trend whilst being completely wearable. The dress (top left) is perfect for a night out, the detail is beautiful with the lace and the cut I think would suit most body types. I would style it up with a good pair of black ankle boots and a simple clutch. To make this a daytime piece I would go with a grey roll neck underneath it. The 2 shirts (right) are both Topshop, the check top is definitely a way to wear the trend everyday with jeans or cigarette trousers. If your still not sure a good place to start with the trend could be the Jumpsuit (bottom left) it is slightly more structured and has a strong androgynous feel to it but still hints towards the pyjama trend, again with heels to dress up or some bright white trainers for a day time look.

These co-ords from ASOS (left/right), I think are fab. I love the colour of the Monki one and think this would work throughout the seasons as seperates as well as looking amazing together. Same with the C/Meo Collective outfit, this one particulary will be perfect to take you through to the summer and will work with plain camis picking out all the different colours.

I would say the key to styling this look up is keep it simple, less is more. It's all about the flowing fabrics so to have too much going on, on top of that would make it all just too busy and far too complicated. I found some Mules on ASOS, which would be my go to shoe for the trend. These particular ones are on sale at the moment for an amazing £15! The jumpsuit (centre) is another Topshop Boutique find, which I would wear smart a few times to get my moneys worth then dress it down with some ballet pumps. I think it would be so comfortable for mummy duties.

Here are just a few more examples of exactly how I will be styling up the trend. Cigarette pants (every girl needs a good pair) and leather skirts when I want to make it a little more hard wearing with more texture, but still keep it simple. The jumpsuit (centre image) is the final one I chose from the Topshop Boutique collection. As you can tell this is the place to go for pyjamas at the moment, its the best selection I found on the high street for an affordable price. Hopefully I've shown how this trend can be worn by everyone, day and night. Please let me know what you think.
