The Sleepwear Edit

Step into my sleepwear closet - all loved and vetted by moi!

Especially during the pandemic, I developed a love for investing in sleepwear pieces. There is nothing better than slipping into quality pajamas and pouring yourself a glass of wine after a long day. Of course I have my collection of raggedy t-shirts and sweatpants from high school and college that also deserve love from time to time, but this list is for someone looking to upgrade to something high quality and luxurious! I have purchased all of these for myself and/or close friends, so they have been Nicole approved! I will continue to add to this list as I check off items from my wish list.

Robes

Cotton

Matouk Milagro Robe: This is the fluffiest robe and makes you feel like you are at a spa or luxury hotel. I loved it so much for myself that I have gifted it to a couple of my friends.

Silk

Fleur Du Mal Angel Sleeve Robe: This silk angel sleeve robe will make you feel like a fabulous high society woman. Lounge in it at home, pour yourself a glass of wine, put on a face mask, and relish in self love and self care. The pink color I have is sold out, but there are plenty of other colors and prints. They also recently came out with a pink and feather trim style linked here. I will point out that it is the perfect length for my petite self, but may act as more of a robe top for taller people. There is a boutique located in West Hollywood if you are located in LA and want to try in person!

Pajamas

Shirts

Revolve Departure Tee (SATC Reference): This is a fun t-shirt reference to Sex and the City. I ordered the large so it acts as a night gown. Update: This item tends to sell out shortly after a restock, but you can sign-up for a Notify Me/Special Order!

Feather

SLEEPER feather-trim pajama set: One of my best friends gifted me this set in black and I put it on when I want to feel my most fabulous at home. They are very warm as well, and the feathers are such a fun accent to the set. I am also 5’1 and was surprised that I did not need to get them altered (they hit just above the floor when I have slippers on). They will shed a little bit, but nothing a small vacuum can’t solve for.

Printed

PJ Salvage Long Sleeve Cotton Flannel Pajamas & Headband Set - Espresso Martini: I found these at Nordstrom and immediately had to get them. I am known as the espresso martini queen, and love to put them on when I am making espresso martinis. They are also made of flannel, so perfect for the winter and snowy getaways. PJ Salvage in general makes a broad variety of fun pajama prints. They would be perfect for a bachelorette party or gift! Update: The espresso martini print is now in pink this year! Get it quick before it sells out again!

Bedhead Pajamas Printed Set: Bedhead is another great printed pajama brand with so many fun designs. Unfortunately, the sommelier print I have is from a couple years ago and sold out, but there are still so many other great ones. I have linked some fun Neiman Marcus exclusive ones. They are not as thick as the PJ Salvage ones, so can be worn in both the summer and winter. The fabric is very soft, made of cotton jersey.

Cotton

Amazon Ekouaer Short Sleeve Pajama Set: This brand I found on Amazon is great quality for the price (I call them the Bib Gourmand pj’s). I have purchased a few of the sets, and they have stood the test of time through several washes.

Silk

Morgan Lane Katelyn Fiona Set: This set will make you feel like a princess. The hot pink version I got is out of stock, but anything labeled ‘Katelyn Fiona’ is the same style. Make sure to hand wash these as they are very delicate. I love that Morgan Lane offers petite sizing, and you can also get free embroidering on your set.

Olivia Von Halle The Casablanca Freesia Silk Pajama Set: I gifted this silk set in a similar pink (now sold out) to one of my fashionista best friends and it is so fabulous! I took a peek inside the box, and have never seen such a high quality set (even down to the buttons)! There is nothing quite like a silk set for a self care night, especially 100% 19 momme silk.

*Update: The Casablanca set has since sold out, but the link sends you to their wide array of amazing, luxurious, silk pjs!

Slippers

Louis Vuitton Paseo Flat Comfort Mule: This is here for the ones who love to get their hands on typically out of stock styles and want to ball out. Somehow I was able to get the pink ones, which are now sold out. LV is typically not my designer of choice, but these slippers are so cute and cozy. You may recall Kris Jenner gifting the pink ones to Kylie via Instagram, which is where I was influenced. *Update: Both colors are now sold out, so I have the newest style linked (which I don’t love as much)! I would instead get these cozy Prada mules as a luxury slipper (linked here).

Ugg Fluff Yeah Slides: These warm, fuzzy slides are perfect for roaming around your home and are kept extra secure with the strap. I do not need to vouch for Ugg, as the brand is loved by so many. *Update: It looks like the Fluff Yeah is no longer available on Ugg and department store sites. I don’t love the newer style, so your best bet is to order from Amazon (already linked above) or Foot Locker (linked here).

Fuzzy Socks

Barefoot Dreams In The Wild CozyChic Crew Socks: For anyone who prefers fuzzy socks over slippers or needs some extra warmth, Barefoot Dreams is a great brand and quite literally has the warmest, softest fabric. Check out their blankets too!
