After reading my good friend Audrey's post on what boys should wear to bed, (See BoyTherapy 'Jammies! Jammies! Jammies!') I thought about what girls wear to bed.
There are all sorts of things girls can don in the sack, as with most fashion women seem to have a lot more choices than men. You can go from $12 packet pj from Coles to chiffon negligees by Chanel. They have dedicated whole shops to dressing women for sleep! And with no shortage of variety, what do your jammies say about you?
Classic Flannelet PJ sets
Well we'll start off with these I guess.. You tend to find these in the sleep section of Target or other department stores, with prints like Tweety Bird and Whinnie the Pooh on them. These are for the girl in you. And by girl I mean little girl. Or toddler. Not the most imaginative of sleepwear and tend to drown you in your bed. They scream "I'll be that little old lady that collects cat figurines!" and are probably best left for the tweens out there.
Designer Jammies
Take everything bad about the Classics. Now burn it. You're left with comfy jammies that don't drown you and actually fit.
With designers out there that dedicate their whole range to awesome sleep wear, you have no excuse not to be great in bed. Get into (my personal favorite) PeterAlexander and have a look around. Guaranteed they will have something with your name written on it. With quirky slogans or beautiful girly designs, there's something for everyone. From sleep shorts to 3/4 pants to full length bottoms with a range of different tops. These say "I'm ready! Look what I can do with my eyes closed!"
Negligees
Well we get to the naughtier side of things now, women's bed clothes differ from men's in a big way here. As woman actually have sleep wear designed for, well.. Not much sleeping! You can find Negligees by nearly every designer out there and they are super super sexy and feminine. Be sure to check if your man has a heart condition before wearing one to bed, as it will be sure to get his thumping! This sort of sleepwear doesn't really say something, but sort of purrs gently in your ear before giving you a steamy kiss.
Clothing to bed
Don't. Just Don't. Not that I know many cases of girls falling into bed fully clothed, but it must be noted that this, under no circumstances is allowed. Not even when you have been drinking. Boys can do it, but they are boys! Not girls in sequin tops with necklaces and layers. No, I don't even care how much you have been drinking!!! I have never had a problem getting out of my clothes after a big night that had me driving the porcalin bus. So you have no excuse. Tshirts are okay. BED Tshirts! Bumming around the house Tshirts! Nothing else. Ever. If you do this I don't care what you have to say. No one is listening.
Undies
Undies have always been the easiest thing to wear to bed. Great for hot nights or if you're too drunk to change into pyjamas. They're always there and you can wear them at other peoples houses too! No one will say 'no' to a girl sleeping in her knickers. You also have the option of wearing a Tshirt, tank top or nothing at all. (which is not recommended for wear at your in-laws or friends houses) When wearing undies to bed make sure you pick up some liners. "Keep your knickers nice". They keep you fresh and can stop you from getting bladder infections when you sweat too much in bed, as generally you will be hot if you're sleeping in undies. They say "I'm kinda lazy, but who cares. I have hot legs."
But try not to wear tight Lycra knickers to bed.. You should wear cotton so your privates can get some air. They need to breathe so that the environment doesnt go bad and you get itchy.
Your (ex)boyfriends massive T shirts
These are like trophies, and any girl will agree, wearing her mans Tshirts to bed is comforting on those nights where he isn't around. The pheromones that stick to the shirt (and they do even after being washed) will relax you and make you feel safe. Plus they're super comfy and you can throw them on with nothing underneath! They say "He's taken ladies" And "If you want this back come get it.."
When you wear an ex's its a bit different. You lose the sensitivity to their pheromones and you've probably had it on your floor for a couple of weeks before you can bare to wear it anyway. Still its a trophy. Wearing an ex's T says "I will eat you alive" (Well that's what I think anyway.. I'm not much of a trophy hoarder)
Sleeping Naked
Sleeping naked is great. But kinda weird when you're alone. Reserved for the hottest of nights or when you've just had a romp with your man, its a great way to relax and its actually good for you. It 'aerates' all those parts of your body that you constantly keep covered and stops gross stuff from going on below the belt. If you are sleeping naked with your man, be careful of him. Nothing worse than flailing about, unrestricted and hurting the poor guys man business.
Sleeping naked says "Phew, I'm tired! How about you Honey?"

Sleep well!
