My OH has been ribbing me something rotten about my bedtime attire. She's just joking (I think) but I just caught sight of myself in the mirror Blush

I'm wearing an enormous pair of fleecy pyjamas, a neck warmer and bed socks. Well I don't like anything too tight in bed, and it's nippy at night. Am I too young to be dressing like this? I'm 37.

Its always boiling in our house so I’m wearing massive post c section pants with DH huge baggy T-shirt on

Louise0701 · 04/02/2020 23:29

@Yetanothernameneeded absolutely

BohoBunney · 04/02/2020 23:30

Pants that cover almost come up to my boobs, a T-shirt marked with foundation from earlier (DP wrestles me on the bed and smudged all my foundation into it) and I’ve got nivea slathered all over my face. Solid 9/10

@Yetanothernameneeded:

Easily the sexiest. You should go on Dragons' Den with those nose tampons.

@justcly agree, comfort and warmth is the most important thing.

I look like a drowned rat at the moment and I'm in my bumblebee nightdress

Itslookinglikeabeautifulday · 04/02/2020 23:32

I’m in my fluffy snow-leopard onesie with my socks on and hair gathered up in a messy bun on the top of my head. My nose/top lip is red and sore from the flu that I am just starting to get over. Sexiness level: 1/10, but only because I finally felt well enough for a shower today.

TheFluffiestCat · 04/02/2020 23:32

Ancient nightie with hole under armpit, which I can't bring myself to chuck out as it's so comfy. Almost as ancient dressing gown which I've just spilled tea on. Hair in scrappy bun to avoid kitten tangling his paws in it. I'm in the spare room keeping the kitten company while DH snores ferociously on the other side of the house. He must be getting a cold. No need to be sexy right now, which is a good job in the circumstances.

Emmelina · 04/02/2020 23:33

Mismatched Christmas pyjamas, from different years. The bottoms are fleece and slightly too big, so although they’re not falling down of their own accord if I shift position they slide down over my arse. Lovely. I’m mid sciatica flare and Am absolutely choked with a nasty winter cold, so my face is deliciously puffy, patchy and dry and I have volume in my hair that “Well Emmelina”can only dream of.
A solid 2/10 I’d say.

fastliving · 04/02/2020 23:38

Reading all these replies I never would describe what I wear to bed as sexy....but it seems the bar is much lower than the M&S nightwear ads would lead us to believe Grin

justcly · 04/02/2020 23:38

@PolPotNoodle

Don't be silly. Socks in bed is how women rebel against the patriarchy.

jammies I got for Christmas that are 4 sizes to big but so comfy.
Just got done puking and I believe I have vomit in my own hair. Trying to summon the energy to go in the shower.
I have thick moisturizer on my face and Vaseline around my mouth and nose
I also have a sty on one eye- dh is a lucky lucky fella

OverByYer · 04/02/2020 23:42

Star covered pjs, facial oil, sweaty hair as couldn’t face washing it after my run ( did shower) and my gum shield to stop me grinding my teeth. All the sexy

theoriginalmadambee · 04/02/2020 23:42

I'm hot, but only because I suffer from hot flushes 🤷‍♀️

haverhill · 04/02/2020 23:46

Sorry, I win.
Rollers (actual rollers), an old sundress now used as a nightie and steroid cream on my facial growths.
10/10

justcly · 04/02/2020 23:47

@Rose789

Don't you just love the way those massive jammies sag round the arse, making you look as if you're wearing a giant nappy?

Proud of you, Mumsnetters. You're really bringing the sexy tonight. 🤣

Thewomeninthemirror · 04/02/2020 23:48

After finally managing to change out of pjs that I’d had on 24hours I’m now in a t shirt that says “Prosecco's for life, not just for Xmas”, pants older and bigger than my children and socks to try and get warm.
My hair is possibly held In the messy bun with vomit and flour, but I’m beyond caring.
Clearly 0/10

Bunnylady54 · 04/02/2020 23:52

rose789 hope you haven’t got a bug 🤮

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 04/02/2020 23:59

I’m not in bed, and will change into a very sexy nightshirt when I go, but I am in grey velour joggers, a big pink stripy jumper, reindeer socks, fake Ugg boots, and my glasses. My face is glowing with products. All my clothes have a fine layer of white cat hair. I will wear the socks in bed, plus earplugs AND a nightguard on my teeth. Off the charts, tbh.

My DP must really, really love me. Generally other than first thing in the morning before work when I have nice clothes/makeup/contact lenses, this is how he mostly sees me during the week.

‘Crotchless fleece pyjamas’ Grin

I am wearing an elderly pair of hippy trousers (all patchwork and squiggles), a hippyish tee shirt with a moon and hare design that’s kind of peeling off and a man’s checked flannel shirt. To top it off, ancient slippers and my reading glasses - sex on a stick! Grin

Craftycorvid · 05/02/2020 00:02

Erm, the design on my tee shirt is slowly peeling off, not the tee shirt (that might actually have been quite sexy).

Lordfrontpaw · 05/02/2020 00:02

Well last night I had a rather slinky little number - but my period started today so now it’s huuuge period pants, mismatching pjs and a a jumper (it’s freezing). I may fetch some socks as I get very cold toes.

JaneJeffer · 05/02/2020 00:05

I’m too sexy for this thread.

DressingGown · 05/02/2020 00:08

Just realised my feet were too hot and took my socks off. Thanks, Mumsnet. X

DressingGown · 05/02/2020 00:08

No prizes for what I’m wearing

shas19 · 05/02/2020 00:10

Hair stool slightly damp and wearing an old maternity jumper dress that I now use to dye my hair in..clean obviously so probably about a -5 in sexiness
