What should you look for in pajamas?

Here are a few other factors to consider as you shop.

Silk pajamas typically arent machine-washable, but certain brands do make washable silk options.

Theyre buttery soft and the quality holds up beautifully in the wash (no pilling or fading).

Theyre super lightweight and loose on the legs without drowning me in fabric, she says.

J.Crew reviewers say the material is supersoft and holds up well after a bunch of washes.

Major convenience factor: Theyre machine-washable, which isnt the case for most other silk sets.

If you like a relaxed fit and a brushed feel, these are the ones for you.

And they dont lean grandma-y at allthese are sets you could easily elevate and wear out of the house.

Gisele PJ Set

Even better: Its machine-washable and comes in a gorgeous range of earth tones.

Plus, the ankle cuffs will help seal out chilly drafts.

I love the open back and wide-leg fit, and the fact that theres nothing tight around my stomach.
