Pretty much everyone has that one giant t-shirt that we use for pajamas, despite the fact that it’s 15 years old and not exactly easy on the eyes. It’s just so soft, right? But fancy, Instagrammable pajamas are also everywhere these days. All those silky sets and trendy co-ords have me thinking that maybe investing in some Insta-worthy pj’s is actually more worth it than I previously thought, though. Of course, there’s also the fact that a plaid, monogrammed set of nightwear looks a little better on Instagram than, I don't know, the t-shirt I got at a high school basketball tournament. But aesthetics aside, slightly fancier pj’s feel luxurious and pretty darn comforting. This level of coziness only goes up around the holidays, when Christmas pajamas are being sold at every store you enter.
And when it comes to pj’s, what started as a Christmas tradition has turned into an Instagram trend. Holiday sleepwear? Check. Cup of hot cocoa with a candy cane sticking out of the mug? Check. Hallmark movie on TV, heavy knitted blanket somewhere in the foreground of the photo? Done and done. Fancy, holiday-themed pajamas are part of an Instagram-approved lifestyle, but they’re also a good investment. Not only can they be worn far beyond the holiday season, they also offer you the opportunity to have a little moment of indulgence each night. And even if it feels impossible, the fancier pajamas are most likely even more comfortable than that old t-shirt we might be having trouble letting go of.
