This week at IMAGE HQ, methods of self-care have been playing at the forefront of our minds. Whether it’s lighting a luxurious candle when it’s only you home, or making time to squeeze in a morning stretch, carving out a space to pause, reflect, and centre ourselves is an absolute daily necessity.
For many of us, our pyjama selections are made up of too-short in the leg fluffy sets your mum bought you several Christmases ago, cosy thermals you amassed over the years, and a plethora of oversized t-shirts, stained sweatshirts, and tracksuit bottoms that somehow made the voyage from outside-world-appropriate attire to your go-to PJs.
Personally, I never really saw the appeal of pretty pyjama sets — why spend money on something you’re just going to sleep in? That was, of course, until my mother bought me a beautiful set for my birthday one year, and I’ve never known comfort like it. They’ve become my fancy self-care evening pair of PJs, by which I mean I’ll only don them on evenings dedicated to me time.
I’ll have an everything shower, or a bath if I’m feeling particularly extra, light candles, change my bed sheets, spend an excessive amount of time fiddling with my nighttime skincare routine (shout out Niall Horan), and perch in my leaba feeling like a complete and utter princess. It’s the kind of thing that no one’s going to do for you except yourself, and there’s no better feeling than tucking yourself into bed knowing you’ve taken care of yourself that little bit extra.
So, without further ado, here’s our edit of stunningly stylish pyjama sets that you won’t want to take off anytime soon. In fact, throw on a pair of heels and grab a little baguette bag and — dare I say it — you’ve got the effortlessly chic naughties off duty model look down to a fine art.
