Have posted about BIL and his GF before and their very PDA.

We are at ILs for our traditional family NYD lunch, it's something we all look forward to and make abut of an effort for, lovely food, wine, get dressed up etc.

Everyone looks lovely, DD is having a whale of a time and then BIL's GF comes downstairs. BIL is in smart trousers, shirt etc and she is wearing pink PJ bottoms, a basque 3 sizes too small and a tatty black Cardigan.

DH joking said "had she just got out of bed?" and she replied "no I've been getting ready upstairs" apparently this is what she is wearing today.

AIBU to think that is just odd? She knows what we do on this day as MIL and me were talking about it on Christmas Eve with her and saying what we were wearing etc.

A big Tesco in Essex where my BIL lives has a sign on the door saying something along the lines of " we kindly request that patrons do not enter the store in pyjamas or other nightwear"

It's clearly pandemic. She's 18, she is infected.

snot wow.. really? People in essex really go shopping in pjs?? Shock

SnotandBothered · 02/01/2011 00:21

They do. Mostly oink bottoms with Uggs.

And not judging - just reporting!

SnotandBothered · 02/01/2011 00:22

YABU she's 18 fgs!! way to make her feel welcome and wanted, 'grown ups' sneering at her, poor girl.

Lol, was just thinking I'd missed out on a new trend with oink bottoms Grin

Ok, so to the adult mind, she looked in appropriate.
To her, she looked fashionable and prob sexy. Because pjs are fashionable at the moment.
And she would have felt really uncomfortable wearing something that wasnt 'her'.
Dont you remember being 18?
