While traditionally, wearing your pajamas in public might be seen like a fashion faux pas, the continuing climb of the sleepwear trend has everyone stepping out in chic, silky pajama sets, giving all of us an excuse to stay in our cozy, comfy PJs all day, without risking looking lazy. The sleepwear trend is definitely here to stay, and we can credit Selena Gomez for keeping the momentum going.

From silk sets with long-sleeve button down shirts and flowing pants, to negligee- and pajama shirt-inspired gowns, Gomez demos how to wear pjs in public, in every chic way possible, all of which, of course, are paired with glam heels.

The "Same Old Love" singer stepped out on in a seriously chic pajama set: a navy and purple patterned silk set, featuring white trimming and buttons from Olivia Von Halle (oliviavonhalle.com; $423). She paired the set with a black duster coat and traditional black pumps from Casadei, wearing her dark brown hair in a low ponytail, and carrying a black wallet clutch.

Gomez made jaws drop at her Revival tour opening night after-party in May of this year, in a silver negligee-inspired gown. It may not be the traditional pants and a shirt look, but it definitely wowed nonetheless. Get a similar slip dress from NastyGal (nastygal.com; $48).

And of course, how could we forget this black silky gown from designer label, Monse, which she wore out in London back in September 2015. The strapless dress played into its pajama-style look, featuring "sleeves" tied across the chest, mimicking the PJ-inspired frock above, with a thigh-high slit (net-a-porter.com; $1,995, originally, $3,990)

Clearly, Gomez loves the comfy-chic look, as she wore a more traditional blue pajama set with a white trim, paired with bright red heels, in Paris, just a few days after debuting the Monse pajama dress. Steal her look with a set from Oscar de la Renta Pink Collection (bloomingdales; $68).
