Back in the day, a school friend of mine used to receive a beautifully boxed set of pyjamas every Christmas – all the way from La Senza no-less. That was when the lingerie store was filled with enviable and elegant Victoria Secret type drawers and made you feel like you were in Cher from Clueless’ wardrobe, rather than a nightclub. I was always very envious of her new sleepwear and since then have always thought nightwear is a gorgeous gift to both give and receive. Today’s edit features a few of my favourites to wear when you’re catching up on your hard earned beauty sleep.
Classic Style {With A Contemporary Twist}
- Extremely luxe, and oh so chic. These Hush Silk Pyjamas are the height of elegance.
- Still a relatively new company Desmond & Dempsey offer you sartorial luxury even when you’re in-between the sheets and their prints are so on-trend. I’d love to find a pair in my stocking. Hint, hint.
- How pretty are Asos’ Pastel Bloom PJs? Perfect for those grey days when you need a spring pick-me-up.
- At H&M we’re loving the retro styling of their nightshirt. At £14.99 it’s a bargain too.
Pyjamas
- There’s currently 40% off at La Redoute. I know? What a saving. Their nightwear collection is fab and great if you’re after a snugger fit on your nightwear rather than a wider leg. The Grey Short Sleeved Pyjamas with piping detail are my favourites however, I’m loving their three piece sets too
- F&F always have a really great range of sleepwear and this year £12 will get you their Foil Star Twosie. The scoop necked, long sleeved top will keep you warm all winter.
- Lazy Days (available from Asos) have some very trendy separates including this two tone, khaki and grey soft touch jersey set.
- At John Lewis, the 100% cotton floral bottoms are sure to be seriously soft.
Dressing Gowns
- All that’s on my list this year is a White Company Dressing Gown and to be honest I think I’ve been pretty good this year.
- Special mention to F&F for their excellent Floral Stitch Dressing Gown on offer at the moment for just £14.
- I bought my sister last year’s Rosie Huntington Whitely for M&S gown and I’m sure this year’s incarnation will be just as big as a hit.
- Finally at River Island there’s giraffe print. Enough said. Fab-u-lous.
Loungewear
- Charlotte has Boohoo’s off-the-shoulder lounge jogger set and it’s just the ticket for a casual, slow day. For just £20 you could have one in every colour.
- Oysho are really worth checking out for stylish and snug loungewear. How comfy does their v-neck sweater look paired with the stretch cuff pants? That’s right, very.
- I can’t bring myself to do a onesie, I’m afraid I just don’t get it. However New Look’s casual lounge jumpsuit has swayed me to dabble with an all-in-one. Here I am sat by the fire sporting mine.
- There’s limited stocks over at Uniqlo so I haven’t been able to pull out one single item, however their loungewear section has some very soft and snuggly pieces.
- Meanwhile at F&F their floral print cuffed pants will make sure you look chic lounging on any sofa.
Slippers
- Over at Fat Face, all the heart eyes for the pom-pom slippers, with our favourite print at the moment, stars. Plus lovely lounge pants too!
- Gap’s candy stripes are always a signal the holiday season is here.
- For those of you who favour a little novelty, then Next’s character slippers are super cute and a steal at £12.
- While at New Look, their adorable ballerina pumps are the softest shade of grey while Monsoon’s bobble mule are the perfect antidote to tired party feet.
Anyone feel like heading back to bed?! What are you wearing between the sheets? Any other nightwear you’d love to recommend?
Oh I could buy the entire post! Nothing makes me happier than new PJ’s.
I couldn’t resist doing our bit for our local childrens hospital this year and getting the three of us the matching Alder Hey #GetYourStripes chrimbo PJ’s from Matalan. Too cute.
I’ve also picked up little E a dressing gown from the White Company, so now I’m thinking her Mama might need one too. xx
Matching PJs – so cute! And such a good cause too.
Mama definitely needs a dressing gown 😉
I half hate myself for doing the matching PJs, but the other half absolutely LOVES it ?x
It’s sweet! And no-one has to know! Apart from the folks you’ve told on here 😉
Also bought the matching Alder Hay jammas from Matalan so I can get a full onncringe photo come Christmas morning! ??????
Love this Lynsey. Also loving your choice of emojis 😉
Karen, those pjs are adorable!! I wish I’d got us all a matching pair!!
I cannot wait for Felix to be big enough for a dressing gown ( well I can because then he won’t be a baby but you know what I mean!!) and proper PJs-he looks adorable in a baby grow but proper little PJs are just too cute….
I can’t wait for proper PJ’s – I do worry about her getting chilly feet though! Pulling off socks is her favourite x
Any chance of a article about something rather than just a load of affiliate links which is all we seem to get at the mo. BTW do you have a disclosure policy about ads/ affiliate links, couldn’t seem to find one and most blogs do these days?
Hi Anna, we’ve got a stunner of a room tour coming up tomorrow for you.
Our disclosure policy is on our contact page.
I personally do like having a browse through your suggestions, don’t care if they are affiliated or not. I love that you have included a wide variety of brands here, for a full range of wallet sizes.
I also only have a dressing gown on my Christmas list, only right I have the biggest softest fluffiest one from white company yes?
Thanks Claire.
That’s the only thing on my list too! I think we all deserve a big fluffy gown this year. What colour would you like though? I love the look of white but the one I already have always ends up with make-up around the collar. Not a good look!
I love dressing gowns and last year got a snuggly white company one in dusky pink. I have a gorgeous Toast floral one which is thinner and perfect for summer. On my Christmas list is some old fashioned piped PJS. But I would also like all of the loungewear too…
Love piped PJs Anna. There’s some beautiful pairs around x
Oh pyjamas are the best! Love all these recommendations. I really rate Hush for pyjamas / loungewear. They are a bit spendy but the quality is worth it. And I wore them on the morning of my wedding so have a sentimental value too! M&S have really upped their pyjama game this year as well I think. I’m on a search for a dressing gown but I’m quite weird because I don’t like them too fluffy, and prefer them on the shorter side with a hood. I still wear a ‘morgan’ one my mum got me in sixth form… Definitely seen better days. Cost per wear worked out well though! Thanks for the roundup Lauren X
P.S I find posts like this really helpful as it saves me the hard work of looking! Half the stuff on Lolly’s Christmas list the other ended up being bought for girls in my life or went on my list (not strictly the point of the post admittedly…(so I’m all for affiliate links because it helps me out and ensures you get an (albeit small) reward for the work you put into rounding it all up. And we’ve all got mortgages to pay!
Thank you Sian, that’s good to hear, and your girls are going to be very happy on Christmas morning too!
On the dressing gown front, for some reason I’ve always steered away from a hood but as I’m always cold it can only be a good thing. Not sure how impressed my husband would be with me sat watching TV with my hood up though 😉
Ahhh thanks Sian! Glad I could help…in other news we have a gifts for men post pencilled in for you for next week so you might want to stay tuned for that!
Ah wow, thanks for doing one so soon Lolly! And perfectly timed for payday next week 🙂 xx
I quite enjoy the enabling posts as well as I often discover brands/items I wouldn’t have otherwise. I am more of a nightie kind of girl and at the moment M&S are winning for me with these two: http://www.marksandspencer.com/gurpiure-lace-trim-nightdress/p/p22469305 and http://www.marksandspencer.com/long-sweater-nightdress-with-cashmere/p/p60085588 – almost too good for bed right?
Thanks Kat. The sweater dress is immense! Did you watch House of Cards? I can imagine super chic Claire Underwood wearing this.
Love this!
Nightwear is the PERFECT gift for Christmas, does anyone have any suggestions for typical twee but cute Christmas pjs?
Thanks in advance!

We’ll keep an eye out for you Abbie x
Hi Abbie. I’m loving Next for some cute prints but one’s that I’d still wear after the big day too. These animal print ones are sweet http://www.next.co.uk/g643172s3#849461 as are the navy reindeer ones http://www.next.co.uk/g9360s2#466742 x
Those Gap slippers!! ??
I love looking through your links for new ideas- it’s how I discovered Hush which is now my favourite brand and makes up a lot of my wardrobe… not a cheap hobby but hey! Oasis has just launched a lungewear range that looks very snugly, got my eye on this on pay day http://www.oasis-stores.com/gb/new-in/hooded-cosy-cardigan/060704.html?cgid=new-in-all&dwvar_060704_color=07&position=5#&start=5&categoryID=new-in-all
Keep doing what you are doing! Loving the festive posts
Thanks lovely. There’s a matching jumper to the slippers Kate!
Loving the length of the Oasis cardigan x
Bring in Friday payday!!
OMG! I need the fox slippers – and I just happen to have Friday off work to do some Christmas shopping. Thanks Lauren.
They’re so cute Claire. Those ones were Lottie’s suggestion – there’s a whole other gang of animals for your feet too 😉
Have a lovely time on Friday x
What happened to that lovely home tour from yesterday?! I was saving it to read on the commute home but it disappeared!
Sorry Jenni we’ve had a bit of a glitch with the post. We have an absolutely beautiful bathroom tour for you tomorrow though.
Lovely post Lauren – I love all the suggestions – like Sian mentioned it really gives lots of inspiration and I have half of Lottie’s wardrobe from things she has mentioned in previous articles – ha ha! 🙂
Thank you for the lovely ideas x
Glad to be of assistance Nicola! I’m sharing some more festive favourites over on Rock My Family next week if you need more shopping inspiration xx
I flipping love Hush PJs, I’ve just got all my winter ones out, so so so cosy and cute prints!
Ooh you lucky lady Vicky, very jealous x
I bought those fox slippers a few months ago and love them! My 11 month old loves them too! I’d size down though as they’ve stretched a little.
I’ve also got a dressing gown on my list but didn’t know which one I wanted, I do now!! Thanks! 🙂
Love all the links, so much easier than doing the research myself! Lx
Thanks Laura, these type of posts take a long time to research and put together so it’s lovely to hear they’re useful.
Fab choice of slippers 😉
The fox slippers are on my feet right now!!! I bought them back in the summer when I saw them as I couldn’t resist them!! I think I might have to get myself another pair as back-up!!
And have added Hush pjs to my crimbo list 🙂
Fab post – thank you Lauren!
Thank you! Hush Pjs going on all our lists too!
