I’m going to let you in on something: I’ve been searching for a matching pair of fun pajamas for over two years. I know, Peter Alexander amazing designs and I already spend a mint there but I wanted a Louis Vuitton SS12 pair, without having to starve myself for a week. All the affordable ones were too pajama-like for my liking. I know, such irony, but the look is PJs for day, PJs for party, PJs for drinks, PJs for dinner, PJs-anything but bedtime jamies. They are too stylish to be confined only to the bedroom! Plus, as Coco Chanel cleverly pointed out, “Luxury must be comfortable, otherwise it is not luxury”, I made it my mission to find a chic and cozy pair of pajamas.
Vintage PJs, shades & clutch / Olivia Marcheline necklace / Miss Sixty heels
So every week I ducked into my local opshop, gazing around so that no one saw me flick through the sleepwear selection, I would search high and low for my dream pajamas. A few times I came close. A silk top here or some silk pants there but mismatch was not my aim. So you can imagine the halo around these PJs when I spotted them from a mile away, I raced to the lingerie section, discreetly of course and embraced them, singing “I knew I loved you before I met you, I think I dreamt you into life…” Oh how I love comfy chic. After all, PJs are like a more relaxed form of suits, designed for you to wear from day to night. Every day.
Where would you wear PJs to?

你能帮我保密吗?已经很久了但我一直在寻找一套时尚的睡衣。当然Peter Alexander有漂亮的设计,但我想要一套Louis Vuitton2012年夏季的款式,但价格得实惠。但我所见不贵的睡衣又太像睡衣了。我知道,这很讽刺,但其实时髦的睡衣能穿去吃饭,参加宴会,时装节目等,不需要只限于它们在卧室里。此外,香奈儿曾巧妙地指出,“奢华必须是舒适的,否则就不是奢侈”。因此我下定了决心一定要找到一套别致和舒适的睡衣。
因此,每个星期,我都去访问我家附近的二手店,偷偷地在睡衣部门观察。有几次我差点找到一条丝绸裤子,但因为不是套装,不能碰触我的心。所以,但我最终有一天找到了这套睡衣时,你可以想像我多么的激动。 它既舒服又时髦,我每天都想穿它。睡衣其实很像一套西装,只是宽松一点。从白天能穿到晚。你会在白天穿睡衣吗?。[/spoiler]
That’s a pretty pajamas!
I don’t think I’m daring enough to wear it around the city but perhaps okay for late night coffee session? lol.
Looking great Cecylia! xx
aww thanks Naz! Yes late night coffee would be perfect- you can then just roll into bed after a long night :D cheers!
Definitely too chic to sleep in! Nice find!
Ah Savage Garden reference! I loved them in highschool!
The PJs look great, almost like a jumpsuit the way you’re wearing them! :)
This is pajamas done right! LOVE the look.
