How to Wear Pajamas in Public

Vanni Bassetti

Who says you can't wear your pajamas outside during the day? (Here's how one editor did it for a full week.) To compensate for the relaxed look, it's important to add polished elements, like a pair of killer heels, statement jewelry, and a swipe of bold lipstick. Basically, pull it together, so you don't literally look like you just woke up. Still unsure how it's done? Keep scrolling to see fun fashion inspo from the street-style set and then shop a few of our favorite pieces. Consider this the perfect excuse to wear pajamas all day, every day.

To quiet a loud printed set, top it off with a solid coat.

Wear the Top as a Jacket

A black PJ set is definitely easier to pull off. Treat the top as a jacket and layer it over an elegant silk blouse.
