Pajama Dress(ing)

What's hot right now? Well, besides the weather, this idea of "pajama dressing" which a lot of designers are featuring in their ready to wear collections. We are all about this trend but figure we might as well actually where pajamas rather than buy pieces that look like pajamas since you're going to buy pajamas anyway. How many times can we use the word pajamas in this post? We couldn't resist these pieces from Frou Frou and they will definitely be doubling as maxi dresses this summer; probably the simplest way to pull of the pajama trend if you aren't sure how you feel about it. Other suggestions for those that are a little more daring: wear that silk slip as a skirt, lace tap pants as shorts or pair a menswear inspired pajama top with denim cutoffs and heels.

Here, the sweet details and easy fabrics ensure you will be pj chic on the street. Picture that last one with a little jean jacket or a little more dressed up with an ivory blazer. Lucky we happen to have those hanging in our closet. It's so much fun getting all dressed up. Especially when you're in your pajamas and you don't even want to think about getting ready to go out. Wait...see what I did there? 

Just add wedges. (And a little arm candy wouldn't hurt!)

Pajama Game

a few PERT pj's

I don't sleep in silk fluttery things all the time. I will be the first person to admit my favourite thing to sleep in is a t-shirt! Yep. Just a t-shirt. A thigh-skimming oversized old t-shirt, makes me feel the most pert.

What else gets played in my pajama game? Tank tops paired with candi factory undies or high waisted ruffle "tulsa" shorts from Zinke. A little chemise from Christine Vancouver if I'm feeling girly. An Elizabeth Cotton nightshirt for those occasions when I want to be comfortable yet presentable. A travel essential. Flannels on Christmas morning, obviously.

But I'll always go back to that old t-shirt. I think it's got the most game; when playing around in pajamas.

Favourite Thing: Elizabeth Cotton Flannel Pajama

This week, Elizabeth Cotton's flannel pajamas are our favourite thing at PERT! I recently had a customer that said she felt like she wanted to stay here and hang out in her pj's for awhile! Isn't that so sweet? Pert is a pretty quaint little shop and we aim to make the atmosphere here as friendly and relaxing as possible! Lingerie shopping should be fun and since it's our favourite thing to do we want you to stay and shop with us as long as you like! These pj's are certainly one of the best to lounge around in! They are so soft and so warm, the ultimate luxury in Portuguese flannel. Elizabeth is dedicated to cultivating the world's finest fabrics which is why we love her pajamas. Her fabrics are all natural, produced in European mills especially for her, and then made in a small factory in the historic garment district of New York. 

These jammies are ones that only get better with age! It is no surprise then that they made it onto the "O List" as one of Oprah's favourite things! And now they've become one of our favourites here at the love shack! The flannels we have come in 3 prints, each one being the perfect pick-me-up during our chilly Canadian winter. These pj's are definitely one thing we want to give and get this Christmas!
