To go out in my Christmas pj bottoms

Would you go out for a dog walk in xmas pj pyjamas and coat over?
V busy few days with egg hunts for Dd, shopping, school things to organise etc
We’re on Easter holidays, it’s rainy on and off, cold and v windy, but my dog desperately needs to go out.
Would you throw a coat on and walk to the nearby green/woods (it’s two houses down and highly unlikely I will encounter anyone)

Went, it was fine, saw a neighbour walking his dog, whether he went home and told his wife how shocking it was to see me in xmas pjs or whether he didn’t even notice, who knows 🤷🏻‍♀️

Have some self-respect. Get dressed.

@PutASpellOnYou Feel better how? It’s a stormy day out, i‘m home with my little girl and dog, by the fire, under a duvet, reading together and eating mini eggs and we’re both v comfy in our pjs…I don’t feel bad at all, I love being comfortable. I’ve spent days on end rushing to work, school things, friends meet ups, shopping etc…days I shower, wash my hair, wear make up etc..all fine, but I love days like this. To throw on a coat and boots to walk two seconds away, surely doesn’t make me look mentally unwell 🙈

Then why pose a question when you are already so sure of the answer?

It's a bit windy out. Wear a Santa hat to keep your head warm.

AllProperTeaIsTheft · 27/03/2024 15:50

I mean... by the time you'd bothered typing the OP, you could have put trousers on. Baffling!

AllProperTeaIsTheft · 27/03/2024 15:50

I wouldn't. I've never owned Christmas pyjamas or gone anywhere in pyjamas though. I don't understand why putting a pair of trousers on is considered such an effort tbh.

@Blueeyes13 Ok you’ve convinced me 😁

We have a field at the back of our house used by lots of dog walkers. There are often people in their pyjamas. I sometimes go in my onesie with a big coat over! Nobody seems to care.

Hmmm...well I wouldn't be seen dead in those indoors, in the dark, at Christmas.

But it's your choice.

Any need for that? FFS.

Tracker1234 · 27/03/2024 15:43

I agree - how long does it take to whip on a pair of leggings or TBottoms.

Dear God I hate this place.

They look very cosy. Leave them on.

Is it weird I don’t really care

Not weird at all. Don’t be a sheeple.

PutASpellOnYou · 27/03/2024 15:18

It's slovenly.
Have you no standards, lazy day or not?
Don't you at least feel better getting dressed?

Youdontevengohere · 27/03/2024 15:17

I have lots of lazy days. Takes less than a minute to put a pair of trousers on though! If you’re getting up and putting on a coat/shoes, you might as well put some trousers on too.

Smartiepants79 · 27/03/2024 15:17

Of I have lazy days.
That still wouldn’t involve leaving the house in my nightwear.
You do what you like but it’s beyond lazy and I’d actually think you were a little bit mentally unwell if I saw you in the woods, in the rain, in Christmas pjs, in March.

Lol no you're so unique and quirky OP, you're not like other girls. Is that what you want to hear? I took the dog out earlier and was soaked to the skin after so had to do a full change, so I don't think it matters what you wear out, you'll probably be changing when you get home anyway. Has your poor dog been out yet?

Howcananyonehatereading · 27/03/2024 15:14

I would never EVER go to a shop in pjs 🥺I’m talking about a patch of green/woods a couple of steps from my home
Good point about possibly getting them wet though, so I will have to put jeans on
Nobody ever had a very lazy day?!

StarlightLime · 27/03/2024 15:13

You can't be "too busy" to get dressed, op. Give over.

This is the point of your thread. You cant be arsed. Imagine if everyone couldnt be arsed.

I would say do what the hell you like but dont be offended if others who can be arsed think you are lazy

Oh come on someone wearing Xmas trousers for a dog walk is hardly the crumbling of society 😄
