PAJAMA

Whether it’s the reaction on the economy or just a craving for sensual, relaxed and languid luxury designers showed a lot of pajamas on the runway. Personally I haven’t worn a pajama in ages so I don’t know if going to jump on this trend. Not to mention I’m afraid how it’s going to look like when this watered down to the masses. I think it only works when it paired by a tailored jacket
