At first, the idea of pajamas masquerading as ready to wear fashion seems a little nuts, but if lingerie can be worn out on any girls night and cozy flannel pants are donned off-campus by co-eds everywhere, why can’t classic pajamas enjoy their time to walk in the sun?

Dolce & Gabbana

The only way to see if this Dolce & Gabbana approved trend will actually work is to go ahead and get comfortable with it.

Five Ways to Experiment with Pajamas

Sleep Shirts - Style as you would a great blouse and pair with your favorite jeans.

Elizabeth & James, Sartorialist, Men's PJ Top

Delicate Robes - Secure and wear like a wrap dress or open like a cardigan.

Phoebe Carlyle, Not on the High Street, Nicole Richie

Flannel Tops - Wear like a plaid shirt and layer over tees or under jackets.

Victoria's Secret, Trend Hunter

Silk Bottoms - Add heels and structured top or Recycle into Harem Pants. 

Balmain and Adam Lippes

Bed Jackets - Delicate vintage substitute for modern fashion capelet.

That Girl Vintage, Giambattista Valli, Andrew Gn, Midnight Glamour
