Sleep Tight- Classic Pajamas for Fashionistas




I love pajamas, I mean CLASSIC cotton or flannel pjs. They are great for any occasion at home,they help to keep the chill away.
However, it is a challenge to find pjs that are well made AND fashionable for a decent price.
This year it seems that some department and specialty stores decided have a race for ugliest prints! Horrible!

 I love candy stripes, I like patterns, but some in the stores the patterns have become crazier each year and after one month of washing, the pants have shrunk and the jacket looks like it was washed a million times. The quality is extremely poor.

Here are a few good picks.


The Cat's Pajamas. http://www.thecatspjs.com/Phenomenal site with a wide range of pajamas in flannel and non flannel. I love the sushi print and the water lily patterns.

Fig Leaves

They also carry name brands like Ralph Lauren.



Karen NeuBerger

Became a super hit after Oprah named them to her favorite list.

The prices are great and there is a wide selection available up to size 16. They sell great robes too.

Vermont Country Store

My little secret, now it is out.This is where I purchase classic pajamas for family members. The quality is excellent and it is the classic look we love. The colors are Teal and Lilac and in such demand that they will not get to you before Feb 2011. But they are the best. Sizes go up to 3X.

Do not leave the site right away they sell loads of obsure and out of production perfumes and candies. Wonderful shopping.

Great flannel pjs but not much in the way of cotton.

Love the prints!

Shop for pjs based on your personality such as glam, romantic,chic,wild,classic and fun. And they are buy one get one free!! wow, this is a great deal. Shop I say!

They also have Neuberger, Lauren and the venerable Hanro brand. Really nice.
