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)

No, I’d have put my trousers on instead of writing this thread.

Chickenwing2 · 27/03/2024 15:11

Of course. You can do and wear whatever you like.

Since getting my dog I always wear trackies, leggings or black pj bottoms so I can nip out for walks without changing 😁

Also I see people walking their dog in pj bottoms all the time, no judgement! It's responsible to take the dog out!

I feel as though seasonal print is irrelevant. I’d never worn PJs past breakfast and certainly wouldn’t entertain going out in them.

WhatWhereWho · 27/03/2024 14:39

It takes a few seconds to put something else on though.

Dryt · 27/03/2024 14:37

Highly unreasonable. Why are you not in your Easter pyjamas?

crochetmonkey74 · 27/03/2024 14:36

I don't care personally but I would worry you are feeling a bit low if even putting trousers on seems too much (been there and I wasn't well)

StarlightLady · 27/03/2024 14:33

YANBU, your body, your life, but some may view you as a tad strange.

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

Show quote history

Well obviously it's the end of the world if some random strangers think your lazy😱

GertrudePerkinsPaperyThing · 27/03/2024 14:30

I would throw over a pair of baggy tracksuit bottoms to go out - keeps your PJs clean if nothing else!

But I don’t care what others do.

waftabout · 27/03/2024 14:28

I'd think you were attention seeking. It takes 30 seconds to put on a pair of leggings or plain tracksuit bottoms.

Not only would you feel the need to go out in the Christmas bottoms but you also needed to have a thread about how tired/busy/wacky you are.

PossumintheHouse · 27/03/2024 14:12

Are you taking PJs adorned with Christmas trees and flashy baubles or a pair of red PJ bottoms?
If there's anything specifically Christmassy you're going to look like a right Wally.

I've got Christmas leggings I'm still wearing at the gym.

chocolatelover91 · 27/03/2024 14:21

Just get dressed, ffs!

NoraLuka · 27/03/2024 14:20

I wouldn’t but mainly because whenever I do that kind of thing you can guarantee half the people I know will happen to wander past.

BoohooWoohoo · 27/03/2024 14:19

I wouldn’t go out in pjs but would wear Christmas ones all year round.

Tessasanderson · 27/03/2024 14:18

@idontlikealdi 😂 I really cba, too tired

Rickrolypoly · 27/03/2024 14:18

How hard is it to put on a pair of leggings?

Verv · 27/03/2024 14:18

Honestly, youre taking the dog out in the pissing rain.
Nobody is going to give a shit, and those who do seem to be convinced that because they dress to appease the eyes of others, you need to do the same because your dog needs a wee.

MenoBabe · 27/03/2024 14:17

Devilsmommy · 27/03/2024 14:14

I'd do it, but then I really don't give a toss what people think 😆

Me too

EmilyPlay · 27/03/2024 14:16

I doubt anyone would care. If you have a coat and boots on it hardly matters if your trousers have Christmas trees or whatever on.

Revelatio · 27/03/2024 14:15

You’re going to have to change them anyway as they’ll be muddy? Or are you planning on going back to bed in them?

Are you going to the loo at all today? You’ll have to pull them down and back up then, not much different to just putting a pair of normal trousers on.

mondaytosunday · 27/03/2024 14:15

My son has several of those plaid flannel pj bottoms. He wears them out when doing errands. Not Christmassy though, which definitely would identify them as jammies. Dog walk fine, going to the shops - no.

Youcannotbeseriousreally · 27/03/2024 14:14

i would never ever leave the house in anything but proper clothes. Don’t understand at all that getting dressed is too hard. Too lazy , yes, too difficult, no.
