The Comfiest Loungewear

February 12, 2018 by jessica 3 Comments

Garnet Hill Easy Knit Organic Cotton Pajamas

It’s not uncommon for me to slip into loungewear the moment I get home from work. The change in uniform is a signal to wind down and relax after a long day, and it feels perfectly indulgent to wear something unfussy. However, there’s a fine line between comfortable and sloppy, and I never want to veer into the latter even when I’m at home! That’s why I’m crazy about this comfortable sleepwear set from Garnet Hill. The painterly stripes of the matching set feel modern and pulled together without looking juvenile, but the best part is that they’re made from Green Cotton. Farmed without harmful pesticides or chemical defoliants, organic Green Cotton fibers are refined using less water, less energy, and less pollution.

Style Spotlight: Spring Pajamas

May 13, 2015 by jessica 7 Comments

SpringPJs4

 

We’re in for a stormy weekend ahead of us, which makes spending the day in pajamas awfully tempting. (Brunch, mimosas, and Mario Kart…what’s not to love?) I usually reach for these or these, yet I’m yearning for a spring upgrade. I haven’t found the right pair just yet, but I did come across five appealing options no matter your p.j. personality.

[spacer]

THE CLASSIC
A crisp cotton nightshirt with contrast piping is a menswear classic. Wear your sexiest underwear–or none at all–for a sexy surprise.

[spacer]

THE FLIRT
Lace babydolls and matching panties run the risk of looking outdated and campy. That’s not the case when you add hot pink and fluorescent orange to the mix.

[spacer]

THE SEAFARER
Nautical stripes for summer? Groundbreaking. 😉

[spacer]

THE ANTI-PAJAMA
If pajamas aren’t your thing, invest in a pretty robe with much-needed coverage to get the morning paper and enjoy coffee on the porch.

[spacer]

THE MINIMALIST
A soft pointelle jersey set is a perennial favorite. Upgrade your favorite set with a racerback cami and a pair of shorts. (If dove grey isn’t your thing, start with the camisoles here where you’ll find this Eberjey number in prettiest shade of pink.)

Review: Plum Pretty Sugar Pajamas

September 30, 2013 by jessica 1 Comment

I’ve been looking for a pair of menswear-inspired pajamas and while I like pinstripes and plaids, I didn’t want a menswear-inspired pattern. I remembered seeing mentions of Plum Pretty Sugar on various blogs and found a sleepwear set that seemed to fit the bill. There’s a surprising lack of reviews on Plum Pretty Sugar products, so here are my thoughts:

  • I adore the feminine, vintage design.
  • It’s made of soft, crisp cotton that feels like a set of well-worn sheets.
  • Great attention to detail with piping along the edges and mother of pearl buttons.(Two extras are included.)
  • Pay attention to the size chart as the shortie set runs smaller than other items. It’s too bad that you can’t order the top and bottom in different sizes. I’m a size smaller on top and, as expected, the pajama shirt is looser than it needs to be.
  • Shipping was $7.50. It seems high for an item that came in an oversize envelope and weighs next to nothing.
  • Even though I followed the laundering instructions, the shorts shrunk along the banded hem. They’re now tighter at the hem than the rear and thighs causing them to ride up awkwardly. I wore them to bed last night to see if they’d stretch out to their original shape, but no luck. 

Bottom Line: I’d consider another pair (these), but would line dry them. I’m pretty disappointed that the shorts shrunk so much.

I’m amazed by what Bacon will put up with.

Review: Eberjey

When I get home from work, I’m in loungewear within minutes. The mail can wait. The cat can wait. But pajamas can not. (Really, it’s for the best that I don’t work from home. I’m not sure how often I’d wear publicly acceptable duds.)

And if you include nautical stripes, you know we have a winner. Eberjey sent this charming set to me before our trip to Kentucky – and it immediately made its way into my luggage. I hadn’t had personal experience with Eberjey’s line before, but I was eager to try it … and now I’m hooked. The fabric is unimaginably soft. The cut is perfectly feminine and it’s ultra flattering. I don’t think I’ve ever felt this pretty in pajamas before.

I don’t see my set online, but this one is similar and you can browse the full line of chemises here.

I’ve had my eye on these graphic earrings for awhile and now they’re even more tempting at $50.

For Home…


This drink table is perfect for small spaces when you need a place to perch a cocktail. Plus, it doubles as a plant stand!

Phone nooks don’t get the attention they deserve Phone nooks don’t get the attention they deserve. They’re practically begging to be used as built-in displays for ceramics! 

(I removed the phone jack, pulled the wires back through the hole, and patched it up, so it’s no longer functional for a landline. I assume a future owner won’t miss it either!)

I’ve taken a version of this photo each Christmas to serve as a timeline of the small changes over the years. One thing never changes, though: I think our Christmas tree is the prettiest. 😊 I hope you have a wonderful holiday in however you’re able to celebrate this year. 2020 has been difficult, but we’re in the home stretch now! Sending lots of love your way!

As my holiday gift to you, enjoy my favorite famil As my holiday gift to you, enjoy my favorite family cookie recipe now on the blog! (Find it via the link-in-profile or search for "sugar cookie.”) It never feels like Christmas until I’ve had my mom’s sugar cookies. In a typical year (or even an atypical one like 2020!), I’ll spend a couple of days working on these — baking them the first and decorating them the second — and it immediately puts me in the holiday spirit. Not only are these nostalgic for me as she’s been making them my entire life (there’s even a photo of me, no older than 2 years old, sitting at the kitchen table “helping” with them), they’re hands-down the best sugar cookies I have ever had. And plenty of people agree with not-so-subtle hints to make them each year.

It never really feels like the holiday season unti It never really feels like the holiday season until I’ve made sugar cookies with my mom’s decades old recipe — and until I’ve risked a food-borne illness by snacking on raw dough. I shirked the holiday tradition last year after having been too busy with holiday travel (ten days in Belgium and a long weekend in Chicago left me too busy with other holiday to-dos), but there’s zero excuse to put off baking this year. #AlwaysHome #QuarantineForever
Buffalo plaid packages tied up with string ... the Buffalo plaid packages tied up with string ... these are a few of my favorite things. 🎶 (I don't think Julie Andrews would mind tweaking the lyrics a little bit, right? 😉)

Pro tip: Instead of looking at the gift-wrap section for things to decorate your presents, hit up your local craft store. I bought a package of 75 jingle bells, a dozen mini bottlebrush trees, and twine in seasonal colors for just a couple of dollars each. (The wrapping paper is from Target.)
