Do all ur pjs match.

I have put away my summer pjs and got out my winter ones. They are a random selection of pretty , boring , non matching , expensive and cheap. I rarely have any that match as I get hot at night and most winter pjs are long sleeve and I would die wearing those. So I only buy the bottoms.
I also have random selection of tops and bottoms for lounge wear.

are there proper grown ups who have all matching and beautiful.

I have pyjama shorts with coordinating T-shirts. They don’t match match but they’re presentable enough.

Mine match, that's how I like them to be. Why can't you buy tops to match the bottoms? It's only a t-shirt or a vest

Enko · 20/09/2022 19:21

All mine match i like it that way

Flangelasashes · 20/09/2022 19:21

Mine match coz I am a weirdo 😂

MangoBiscuit · 20/09/2022 19:23

I think I have one matching pair. I don't usually wear it together though. Mostly I have pyjama shorts, or thicker longer length ones, and then I pinch DP's tshirts to wear on top. Grin

LionessesRules · 20/09/2022 19:24

Mine match. I only have 3 pairs tho so not difficult.
DS1 is miss matched, as he doesn't care.
DS2 only wears the bottoms so the tops go, brand new, to the charity shop.
DH wears a random selection of his oldest clothes.

Watto1 · 20/09/2022 19:25

Bit of both. In an ideal world, I’d like short bottoms with long sleeved tops but most pj sets are either all long or long bottoms with a t shirt! I have some all long sets for when it’s really cold and all shorts sets for when it’s hot. When it’s in between, I have to mix it up.

Paranoidandroidmarvin · 20/09/2022 19:30

@Watto1 i have this problem. I would love nice thick bottoms and thin short sleeve tops. But the winter ones always have long arms.

I don’t buy pyjama tops, I just retire t shirts from daytime wear if they get shapeless or holey or generally disreputable.
I wear them with pyjama trousers. They don’t match, but I try to co-ordinate a bit.

TimeAtTheBar · 20/09/2022 19:32

I wear pyjama bottoms and whatever vest top I pull out of the drawer.

I knew my MIL was a good one when she bought me two pairs of bottoms for Xmas instead of the sets everyone else buys me.

I do exactly the same.

Me too

red4321 · 20/09/2022 19:34

Like you, I hate the heavy long-sleeved matching tops so try to buy just the bottoms, or wear random T-shirts instead of the matching tops.

I'm sure I looked very stylish in hospital after recent surgery wearing my Smurf T-shirt and tartan pyjama bottoms. Hmm.

PanicAtTheBigTesco · 20/09/2022 19:34

All of mine match but I buy mix and match sets so that I can have long pants with a short sleeved top (ASOS, primark and Tesco generally).

PolarPolly27 · 20/09/2022 19:35

All mine match but I do have some sets with several different styles of tops and bottoms to mix and match

Thestoppedfan · 20/09/2022 19:35

My normal PJs are old T shirts that are too big/ a bit misshaped and old gym pants. My ones when people stay over are beautiful matching m and s ones (my gran still buys me a pair every Christmas). Only DH and the postman know the truth.

I don’t own pyjamas full stop! Not one single pair/half pair 😂
I sleep naked, knickers and an old tshirt of dh’s when it’s totally freezing.
can’t stand wearing clothes in bed, I just get tangled up because I move about so much in my sleep!

ADecadeAndAHalf · 20/09/2022 19:40

All of mine match something in the drawer!

Ollybob · 20/09/2022 19:40

I've had matching sets but often find the tops too hot so have a drawer full of bottoms and use random old t shirts to go with them.
Might make more of an effort if I stay away with people though.
Also find it a pain to find cotton pj's, primarks big selling point is there nightwear is made from recycled materials, who wants to sleep in plastic?

AlwaysFoldingWashing · 20/09/2022 19:41

Yeah, pyjamas, socks and underwear are always matching

gogohmm · 20/09/2022 19:44

I only own one pair, they do match but I keep them for situations where you need them, I don't wear them at home

GettingOrganisedNow · 20/09/2022 19:44

I decided to go for a grey and navy theme for my pjs, so I can buy separate tops and bottoms as long as they're some sort of grey or navy. This means that I can wear any combo and they always match!
