Staying in PJs all day?

[HighburyLass]

Anyone else not find this appealing? Or even for the morning?
I generally get dressed straight after breakfast because somehow I start to feel a bit grufty if I don't.
I know loads of people find it a treat to load around in pjs all day.

No judgement, just wondering if it's the majority.

Also I have had a chronic illness for many years and wonder if being bedridden for 2 or 3 days regularly has made me equate pjs all day with being unwell.

Just pondering!

Am I the only one who can't be doing with bosoms swinging around all day? I'd also be cold with just pyjamas, unless I'm in bed.

My bosoms don't swing. They barley extend past my rib cage!

...I've only got one left and that tends to behave itself (scared shitless probably as to what happened to its counterpart) so no bras ever for me!

Whereas I can’t fathom why you’d buy jeans that aren’t comfy enough to wear all day and why you’d wear PJs during the daytime, each to their own. However I’m on of those who never stays at home all day and am usually in and out a lot not just once. So I’d be forever changing.

I like the idea of it, but I usually get to a point where I feel dirty and lazy, plus the dog needs walking. So days like this probably result in a bath and a small window of being dressed that lasts a couple of hours, then the pjs return.

I don't sleep in pj's, I come home from work, wash, put pj's on, take them off before I go to bed and put them back on in the morning. I buy a 4 pack of mens massive t shirts, or tshirts that are too old to wear out and have about 20 pairs of lounge/pj bottoms, it's a comfort thing for me. I wouldn't go out in them though. As for bras, I never wear a proper one unless i'm going "out" out, crop tops for work and nothing the rest of the time, but I don't have big boobs, so don't need much support.

I don’t know why, but I’d feel embarrassed if I got caught still in PJ’s if someone knocked at my door, so I like to get dressed early. I’ve no idea where it comes from.

Absolutely not. Its lazy and scruffy.

I do. Or, In fact rarely pyjamas, in that I've got a couple of pairs I only use if I go away with my friends, ie if someone sees me overnight. Normally I sleep naked, and then put on a dressing gown and potter around the house till I have a shower.

I had a pj snow day Tuesday - doesn’t happen often . But had a chilled out lazy day which was needed . I had a bath late afternoon - clean pj’s then slept in them . I also slept in them last night but about to get dressed because I am going to work.

I don’t see the issue really .🤔

I always get dressed and ready for the day after breakfast. I don’t find clothing uncomfortable and would hate to be slopping around in PJ’s no matter what sort or whether they’re clean on.

Why do people buy clothes that they find so uncomfortable they can’t wear them?

I've kept my pj bottoms on today to WFH. My endo has flared, they're nice and loose around my stomach and they will be going in the wash later anyway
Changed my top and put a bra on!

Pyjamas are different from clothes. Pyjamas are for going to bed in, clothes are for daytime wear. I can buy clothes from lots of shops which don't sell pyjamas.

Exactly this!! None of my clothes are so uncomfortable that I have to wear pjs to feel comfortable.

I must be in the minority then because I often don’t bother getting changed out of my pjs/lounge wear sets if I know I’m not leaving the house. I’m not making up excuses to the postman either, I don’t really care if he sees me in my pjs 🤷🏻‍♀️ And when I do come home I put my pjs/lounge sets on immediately.

I don't. I work from home 3 days a week and rarely do I get out of my pj bottoms. I just throw a hoodie or a jumper over my pj top.

Postman can think what he likes!

I couldn't give a monkeys about what delivery drivers think of me wearing when I open the door. They probably feel the same. The ones I see regularly (👋 to the lovely Evri lady) have seen me wearing the full sliding scale of pjs to smart attire.

I usually dress but have been known to complete the slob look with a dressing gown for a days work at home WITHOUT EVEN SHOWERING (shock horror) and quite enjoy it 😆

My clothes are comfortable but if I swell up so much that I look pregnant (the irony there) then I revert to pj bottoms when I'm at home
Just easier rather than sitting with trousers undone etc

Nothing wrong with lazing around in pjs in the comfort of your own home at weekends, but did your 12 year-old son really not go out all weekend, and stay in the same pjs for three days and three nights - so he didn't wash his pits and bits for three days?

I'm always in PJS/loungewear and only get dressed if I have to go out past the local shops.

I don't wear them at night though, I just wear underwear to sleep in.

@Ihateslugs

If I am not dressed when a delivery arrives, I open the door a crack and say “ You just caught me in time, I’m about to go in the shower

As someone who briefly worked as a delivery driver, I would find this much weirder than a pair of pyjamas. People wear PJs in the house all the time, the delivery driver isn't interested in what you wear, they don't know your working hours and neither do they care. They care about a successful delivery so they can get paid. Announcing you are just about to have a shower is strange, particularly given the vast majority of drivers are male.

I sometimes wear comfy pants, but tbh rarely lounge around the house all day unless I'm ill.

Being in PJs all day is my idea of hell - I would need to seriously ill/incapacitated. Even post childbirth, when I have broken bones, traumatically bereaved I have always got changed into some sort of clothes during the day.

Full disclosure - I have horses so getting up early and outside whatever the weather/circumstances is baked into my psyche. Hanging around the house all day in bed clothes would be the opposite of a treat for me. I think I would sink into a slough of despair if I didn't get dressed in the morning.

@ForGreyKoala says who?
Pyjamas, leggings, haram pants, trackies.... it's all the same to me.
Pieces of material. That's all.

According to the dictionary "a loose jacket and trousers worn in bed."

You do you, some of us just don't want to wear pjs all day and sorry, but I think people who do are plain weird and if you read this thread you will find I'm not alone.
