As of recently, wearing pajamas in public has become not only acceptable, but trendy and fashion forward (if worn correctly, of course.) This season, style icons — from top fashion bloggers, to designers, to celebrities — have opted to take a comfier approach to fashion and wear their pjs in public. This is one fashion trend\u00a0we can’t get enough of here at The Pajama Company<\/a>. However, not everyone agrees with us.<\/p>\n

As we discussed earlier this year, a few officials have tried to ban people from strutting around in their pajamas. Louisiana commissioner Michael William<\/a>\u00a0attempted\u00a0to prevent residents in his district from appearing in public places wearing\u00a0\u201cgarments sold in the sleepwear section of department stores.” A\u00a0school in Vermont<\/a>\u00a0banned students from wearing pajamas to classes.\u00a0A\u00a0school in the U.K\u00a0went so far as to forbid\u00a0parents from wearing pajamas when picking up\/dropping off their children.<\/p>\n

Most of the reasoning behind these campaigns comes from the idea that pajamas are unprofessional and unkempt. However, this season we have seen that pajamas can be anything but sloppy. Model\u00a0Miranda Kerr<\/a>\u00a0paired her blue ikat print pajamas with an oversized blazer, nude pumps and big sunglasses for an anything-but-messy airport look (shown above<\/em>), while Rihanna went for a sleek oriental inspired look<\/a> on the red carpet. \u00a0But one of our all-time favorite looks has to be Rachel Roy\u2019s classic red carpet look in our Bed-Head blue and white stripe pajamas (shown below.)<\/p>\n

We would be devastated if these bans kept our style icons, and most importantly the members of our Pajama Company community from trying out\u00a0these ultra-chic pajama looks. So, in order to keep the pajama critics from talking, we have a few tips for putting your look together:<\/p>\n

1.) Make sure your pajamas are crisp, clean, and wrinkle free.<\/p>\n

2.) Keep hair and makeup simple and neat. (See Miranda’s sleek ponytail.)<\/p>\n

3.) Accessorize! Add a structured blazer, great pair of shoes, a pretty necklace, or big glasses.<\/p>\n

5.) Own it! Confidence always makes an outfit, so be proud of your original look and you will get the attention you deserve.<\/p>\n
