help me find some decent night-wear

[hatwoman]

it's the bane of my life...I can't do straps - my shoulders get cold - I need sleeves. I like something nightie/night shirt like - coming to mid thigh. but would like something that doesn't look like a baggie t-shirt belonging to dh. (although, from the practicality/comfort pov dh's t-shirts are perfect.) can you get vaguely sexy-sttractive with sleeves? (short sleeves btw)

this?

not that sexy though?

White company?

or this?

Good old M&S? This one looks okay if a bit steep. How much did you want to spend?

I have the first one that JaackieNo linked to and it's very nice / warm - dare I say not bad looking either.

It's mine too hat.

Eventually I went to John Lewis - got a lovely non frumpy nightie with sleeves made from the most beautiful soft cotton.

I like the ones made by Floozie for debenhams.

(for some reason that link doesn't go straight to nightdresses, though )

I'm afraid I usually end up in something like \link{http://www.landsend.co.uk/ix/womens-clothing/women/sleepwear-and-slippers/night-dresses/index.html?seq=1~2~3~4&catNumbers=1~23~64&visible=1~2~1~1&store=le&sort=Recommended&pageSize=12&tab=2\these}

I like the ones that look like men's shirts with the sleeves rolled up. Gap, M&S and the White Company all do them.

Designers at Debenhams is very good. Saw me through all the post birth visits!

thanks all - some nice ones here. I have one nice one which is a bodas night shirt but it would be nice to have two decent pieces of night wear. will look in more detail when I've done the ironing. (sunday evenings ay)

yep like the CK ones at Figleaves. though dh prefers some of the other figleaves stuff. he cares not for my chilly shoulders.

it's weird...there are quite a few pyjamas where the top has sleeves and a bit of lace or nice trim or a nice shape, but there are very very few night dresses like that
