Pajamas: More Than Just Sleepwear
Cozy in bed, comfy on the couch, and perfect for wearing all day long: pajamas are the ultimate winter loungewear. What does it take for a two-piece set to keep you perfectly warm, and how do you find your favorite style for relaxing? Here are our ultimate pajama tips!
Why actually wear pajamas?
The word pajama originates from Persian, and the garment was brought to Europe by the British. Pajamas have a long history because their benefits have always been clear: they protect the body from getting cold during sleep, wick moisture away from the skin, and signal to your brain that it is now time to relax.
Warm, warmer, pajamas
There is a perfect pair of pajamas for every season. In winter, cozy fabrics take center stage: pajamas made of fluffy woven flannel, velvety velour, or extra-warm fleece keep the cold out. They feel wonderfully soft and help regulate your body temperature while you sleep. It is best to choose a high cotton content. This natural fiber lets your body breathe and creates a pocket of warmth. For lounging, pajamas made of snuggly plush are a great choice.
Simply cozier by design
Uncomfortable fasteners or a stiff fit? No way! When it comes to pajamas, flexible cuffs, elastic waistbands, and drawstrings rule. The fit is relaxed, the cuts are comfortable, and you can mix and match your loungewear however you like. From sweatshirt-style sets to elegant button-down pajama shirts, you decide exactly how you want to unwind. In the winter, make sure your arms and legs are covered as much as possible. That is because the body loses temperature fastest here while you sleep.
Easy Care
To keep your pajamas looking their best, always check the care label first. Low temperatures are usually more than enough. A gentle cycle in the dryer is a great idea for any pajamas made of fluffy material, but you should always use fabric softener sparingly. Classic two-piece pajamas consisting of a top and pants dry best when laid flat. Hanging them on a hanger can stretch out the fibers.
