This would be for mainly wearing in the house, but might pop to the shops in it. It's not the sort of thing I usually go for but thought it would look better than pyjamas when someone pops round unexpectedly, or when I want to be comfy at home but still look stylish enough to have a guest round.

Are they stylish or are they tacky? I'm 53 if that's relevant? https://www.marksandspencer.com/modal-blend-sandwash-cropped-sweatshirt/p/clp61227265

I wouldn’t mind one but I’d want a softer looking fabric and I’d want it to be black or navy. Or dark grey maybe. Not those colours.

I like the second set you’ve linked - both the chocolate and the fawn colour ways,
but the colour of the one described as sand wash is horrible. I think they work best if you have two sets, or just an extra hoody and trousers in a coordinating colour so you can mix and match. But as a co-ord I think it’s smarter rhan just a hoodie with leggings and I don’t get why MN deems it to be chavvy.

So if scuba material then very waterproof?!

No. It’s a man made jersey fabric that doesn’t crease. It’s nothing to do with scuba diving if that’s your confusion.

I think each piece is perfectly OK Op; it's having them both to match that propels the whole thing into pyjama zone.

Same items but in different colours are perfectly ok for lounging or supermarket.

I have this from Tesco and I love it. Its soft and warm, I also wear it to the gym. I wear the bottoms with a plain fitted top when it’s warm. I love the matching. I’ve also got some joggers and hoodies from M&S that match.
