By Cat Fish, The Pajama Company Director of Outreach

Everybody knows that the Big Apple is one of the most fashionable cities in the world. We at The Pajama Company have noticed that one of the of the hottest trends for summer in NYC is pajama-inspired pants!

These spunky trousers are loose and comfortable in the summer heat. They look casual and chic paired with a simple tank or cotton t-shirt. We met Tessa Peach (pictured), who was rockin’ her fun and colorful pants while spending the day exploring Central Park.

Food and Footies

The word “comfort” brings to mind two seemingly different visuals. First, that of a person, curled up in pajamas with a cup of tea. The second image is that of comfort food. We all indulge in mac and cheese, mom’s meatballs, or fried chicken at some point of emotional weakness. We go to food for physical comfort as often as we go to pajamas!


Perhaps the best part of comfort food is the memory associated with it. You might fondly recall your parents popping popcorn over the stove before settling down to watch a movie. You might dwell on the times you spent with your roommates snacking on fresh-out-of-the-oven chocolate chip cookies as a midnight study break. You might think back on lying sick in bed, helped along to health by homemade chicken noodle soup.


Comfort food and pajamas have something very distinctive in common in that they recollect memories and nostalgia. Some of our best memories are spent this way with family and friends. So settle down in your footies with a bowl of ice cream and your gal pals!

As a final touch, try having your food and wearing it too with these stylish foodie pajamas!

One of the special things about pajama-lovers is our uncanny ability to spot a really nice pair of jammies on our favorite TV shows. We’ll yelp out in bemusement if we spy a character rolling out of bed, decked out in a really nice set of footies. Even glamorous TV characters need sleep! So, here’s a compilation of our absolute favorite pajama cameos.

New Girl

True Blood

30 Rock

Mad Men

Kourtney Kardashian’s Pajama Style

If there were one celebrity known for wearing her pajamas on television, it would have to be the new mother of two, Kourtney Kardashian. Whether you love them or hate them, Kourtney and the Kardashian clan have become staples in the American media, and stylish pajamas have obviously become a staple in Kourtney’s wardrobe.

I can admit that watching “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” and the other myriad of Kardashian spinoffs on E! has become a guilty pleasure of mine, and judging by the amount of money the show has brought them (Kim is #6 on the Forbes “Most Powerful Celebrity List” for 2012) it has become a guilty pleasure of many. Although the reasons behind the Kardashians’ fame are questionable, the family has become known for a glamorous style that is always on trend.

While the Kardashian girls are typically seen strutting around in 6 inch heels and designer dresses, it has become clear that even these done-up, high fashion girls love their cozy pajamas. This is especially true of the eldest Kardashian sister, Kourtney, who says on her blog that she “wishes every day could be a PJ’s day.”

Throughout various drama-filled and overly-extravagant episodes of the Kardashian series, Kourtney has sported a variety of pajama looks from silky pajama sets to flannel long johns, and has been known to add her own flair with fun jewelry or headpieces as accessories (see above). We always love to see matching family pajamas!

Kourtney, Scott, Kim, and Mason match their Christmas PJs.

With new baby Penelope having just arrived, we can be sure Kourtney will be sporting pajamas more than ever. At The Pajama Company, we can’t help but admire Kourtney’s pajama style, and have a few looks we think she would definitely approve of.

Thank You, Maurice!

This post is belated to say the least, but there’s no such thing as being too late to appreciate the great Maurice Sendak. Maurice captured childhood and life in general in the short pages of children’s book, such as Where the Wild Things Are. Max was all of us: imaginative, wishful, and occasionally misguided.

At The Pajama Company, our favorite thing about Maurice and Where the Wild Things Are is the way they brought families, friends, and people together. Parents read his books to their children as they drift off to sleep, and those same children fondly remember his books when they’re grown. Maurice Sendak brought us together to explore life. This is exactly what The Pajama Company aims to do. We appreciate families and friendship. Comfort comes in at the top of our priority list. We want to thank and help the mothers that so devotedly read to their children through our partnership with Every Mother Counts.

We love Maurice. We love the way he saw life and the way he conveyed that perspective to others. Continue reading to your kids as you tuck them in at night, remembering Maurice Sendak’s contribution to all of us.

PS: Max in Where the Wild Things Are was a devout pajama-wearer. The Pajama Company has an extensive collection of pajamas for your kids so they can match Max as they read!
