Pajama Party: Perfect the Trend With These Styling Tips

Hannah Weil — Thu, 05 Apr 2012 12:01:57 PDT

This isn't the first time we've seen pajamas go from bedtime staple to red-carpet wear, but it may just be the best few takes on the trend. Fashion pros and celebs alike are embracing the easy separates - and while our first thought was this: if someone's giving us the opportunity to wear our comfiest sleep-time staples right out on the street, why wouldn't we?! That impulse was also checked with visions of the not-so-well-executed take on the trend that makes them look, well, more like pajamas and less like eveningwear. Fortunately, Caroline Sieber in Louis Vuitton, Rihanna in Pucci, and Elisa Sednaoui in Salvatore Ferragamo have all zeroed in on the key to pulling off these pieces perfectly (read: not so literally). Check out our styling tips below, then shop the trend to find your own pair of dress-worthy pjs.

Take a cue from this styled crew and avoid flat footwear - anything like a ballet flat or flat sandal is going to look like a house slipper. Elevate the style with a pair of sexy heels to contrast the easy silhouettes and give them a dressier spin.
Don't be afraid to add interest with a jacket à la Elisa Sednaoui. Her sparkly blazer finishes the whole look with a touch of glamour to offset the more casual feel of her top and trousers.
If you're too timid to try both the pajama top and bottom, channel the look by opting for one piece at a time. You can add your pajama bottoms to a fitted tank and wedges for an elegant day look or throw on the pajama jacket with skinny jeans and heels at night.

Love It or Leave It: Rachel Roy Wears Pajamas to a Movie Premiere

Noria Morales — Tue, 09 Aug 2011 09:18:39 PDT

Well, we never thought we would actually see this. Yes, we saw pajamas as a rising trend for resort - the resort collections of Louis Vuitton and Celine are proof - and yes, we picked menswear pajamas as our August must have, but seeing them worn in public as a complete outfit has taken us aback. Designer Rachel Roy chose menswear pajamas, accessorized with a brown leather clutch and dressy heels, for the One Day premiere in New York. We love the idea of styling the top or the bottoms with something a little less loungy, but the whole outfit seems a bit much. What's your take?

Love It or Leave It: The Pajama Trend

Noria Morales — Tue, 14 Jun 2011 13:20:45 PDT

We've seen slouchy, silky pants and tops for Summer, but we saw two resort 2012 looks that has us thinking pajamas are going to be here for a bit. Celine showed an oversized striped pajama set, while Louis Vuitton presented a more polished pajama outfit, complete with helmet (for those late-night moto rides, you know). Does this mean fashionistas worldwide are going to be adopting pajamas?

Rachel Zoe and Hubby Get Cozy in Love . . . and in Bed

FabSugar — Fri, 04 Feb 2011 12:14:04 PST

We melted a little inside when watching Elle's behind-the-scenes video of Rachel Zoe and husband Rodger lounging in bed for a photo shoot. Rachel looks relaxed yet still wore couture in her "bedtime" outfit; what really got us, though, were Rodger's pajamas. We love us some gorgeous lingerie, but sometimes there's nothing better than your man's pjs. Shop our widget to get your own, and yes, we borrowed a few from the boys.

Motion Sensor Pajamas Let Parents Relax While Baby Sleeps

babysugar — Tue, 28 Sep 2010 12:00:05 PDT

New parents often hover over sleeping babies to keep an eye on every breath their lil ones take. The thought of SIDS can make even a calm mom worry. A Virginia company has announced plans to sell biosensor pajamas (sort of a cross between a onesie and the Angelcare Movement Monitor) early next year. Exmobaby will come with rechargeable wireless transmitters that snap into newborns' clothes and then use wireless technology to feed detailed heart rate, emotional state, and activity level information to parents' cell phones or computers through home wireless networks. How do you feel about attaching babies to these transmitters?

Suri Cruise may be the high heeled mini me of her mama, Katie Holmes, but she also loves her loungewear. The 3-year-old trendy tot has been photographed out and about in past weeks in her pajamas and animal slippers. We're liking the casual side of this cutie and are curious if you take your own kids out in their slippers and PJs - be it for the sake of time or fashion?

Do You Cook in Your Pajamas?

partysugar — Wed, 24 Feb 2010 09:15:35 PST

For some strange reason, I hate cooking in my pajamas. Even if I sleep in and am making a leisurely brunch at my vacation cabin, I need to change into regular clothes before I cook.

I understand that there's no logic to this behavior, but I thought maybe I wasn't alone. How about you?
