Long after you graduate from college, you will feel nostalgic excitement when you spot a soon-to-be college freshman roaming the aisles of a department store, cart packed full of storage bins, towels, and twin sheets. When you leave the comforts of home, your dorm room becomes a cave of comfort. <\/span><\/p>\n

After a few months, the dorm itself becomes more like home: packed with friends and familiar faces, sharing takeout in the lounge, watching a favorite movie with a roommate, late night study sessions. Students develop different routines and schedules and the dorm becomes a buzzing hub of activity, just as a house is for families. <\/span><\/p>\n

A person\u2019s idea of home revolves around one key element: comfort. One of the classic comforts of home is your ability to wear pajamas anywhere you go. Check out our PJ \u201cLook Book\u201d below for ideas on how to stay cozy, calm, and comfortable anywhere on campus.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. The \u201cI\u2019m Running Late for Class\u201d Look. <\/b>The line for the shower was six people deep and you finally got your turn — there was even hot water this time! Now you\u2019re sprinting back to your dorm room in your bathrobe pick out a stylish outfit and do your hair with the 10 minutes you have left to get to class… or pull on the pajamas that are already on your bed, throw on a hoodie, and head out the door? No brainer.<\/span><\/p>\n

2. The \u201cIt\u2019s Too Cold for Jeans\u201d Look. <\/b>It\u2019s a winter wonderland! And by winter wonderland we mean sleet and freezing rain sloshing around in a frosty snow globe. Your class is across campus and life is good underneath your fluffy, warm down comforter. The thought of pulling on a pair of cold, stiff jeans isn\u2019t the motivation you need to leave your cocoon. Taking a hot shower and zipping yourself into a pair of flannel one-piece footie PJs that feel more like a sleeping bag than actual clothes? That\u2019ll do the trick.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Unisex<\/a>

3. The \u201cBut It\u2019s Raining\u201d Look.<\/b> Wet, cold, foggy: gross. You\u2019re already going to have to navigate puddles and maneuver an umbrella when it\u2019s raining sideways. Throw a jacket over these cozy flannel pants, slip on some dry rain boots, and you\u2019re ready to swim to Organic Chemistry.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Dorm

4. The \u201cWe Don\u2019t Have A\/C in Our Dorm and It\u2019s 96 Degrees Outside\u201d Look. <\/b>If you\u2019re sharing a hot tin can with 300 other co-ed sardines it can get a little stale and stuffy by springtime. After you\u2019ve spent the night sweating next to your desk fan, it might be time to cool off in some breezy boxers in the fresh morning air.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Comfy

Fuzzy Friends “Tiger” Slippers from Aroma Home<\/p><\/div>\n

5. Finals Footwear. <\/b>What day is it? Is it still nighttime? Where are the coffee filters? All questions you find yourself asking during dreaded finals week. This is not the week for real clothes. Or showering. Or sleeping. Or socializing. No finals week zombie walk is complete without a pair of comforting, fuzzy slippers. Slip these on, grab a slice of cold pizza, and knock out that test.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Plush

6. The \u201cThat Party Was Epic But I Need 10 More Hours of Sleep\u201d Look. <\/b>The party is over and you\u2019re feeling less than peppy in the AM. You don\u2019t want to leave bed, but the cafeteria stops serving bacon at 11. Compromise: a bathrobe is essentially a comforter you can wear. Win, win.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Back-to-College<\/a>

7. The \u201cWe Can\u2019t Afford to Go Out Tonight\u201d Look.<\/b> When your budget looks like it’s about to be blown, it’s time to rally the troops for a <\/span>binge-worthy Netflix marathon<\/span><\/a>. Order a pizza and get comfortable in a pair of super soft, extra wide-leg pajama pants. It\u2019ll feel like you\u2019re watching TV in bed, even though you\u2019re surrounded by ten of your closest, brokest friends. <\/span><\/p>\n

\"Unisex<\/a>

The Cat’s Pajamas<\/a> Women’s “Sushi” Cotton Pajama Pant in White<\/p><\/div>\n

8. The \u201cIt\u2019s Been a Rough Week\u201d Look. <\/b>Pajamas, above all, are a security blanket. Whether it\u2019s a breakup, roommate drama, or stress from balancing school and life with your new internship, sometimes we just need to hibernate on the weekend. Make yourself a cup of hot chocolate (or noodles), turn on a Law and Order marathon, and shut off your phone. Put on a pair of PJs in the most fun, outrageous pattern you can find. You\u2019ll be feeling like yourself again by Monday.<\/span><\/p>\n
