Ok, so I know celebrities can usually get away with wearing some pretty wacky style trends simply because they're famous, but please, please, please -- someone tell me celebs stepping out wearing pajamas isn't a fashion statement that's going to stick! I know there's the whole comfort factor and it can be so tempting to just roll out of bed & leave the house without bothering to change -- but I just can't help but see running around in pajamas as borderline lazy. (Unless you're quickly dropping the kids off at school & coming right back home. That's different.)
Victoria's Secret model Miranda Kerr looks amazing in anything, but even she had a bit of the mom frump going on when she wore her pj's to catch a flight at the airport.
Even though she paired her baggy look with a high-end handbag, a chic jacket, and heels -- it's still hard to ignore the fact that her shirt & pajama bottoms are a bit on the "blah" side. (But then again, she is Miranda Kerr, and she does still look gorgeous, regardless of her frumpy style.)
Other celebs who have hopped on the pajama trend include Rihanna, who wore what looked like a bathrobe on the red carpet in Tokyo, and Salma Hayek, who recently donned a pair of silk pajamas.
There's nothing wrong with dialing back your style a bit, but the problem with this new pajama trend is that it takes all the fun out of getting dressed & ready to face the day in the morning. And for moms in particular, I can't stress just how important I think it is to take the few extra minutes to get out of our jammies and throw on regular clothes before leaving the house.
I definitely have days where I'm pressed for time and wind up throwing on a hat and big sunglasses to hide the fact that I didn't have time to do my hair & makeup. But I always, always manage to put on something other than what I slept in the night before. Even if it's an old pair of jeans and a t-shirt, getting dressed makes me feel better, and I carry myself with much more confidence throughout the rest of the day. Sleepwear is called sleepwear for a reason, and it should stay in the bedroom where it belongs.
What are your thoughts on wearing pajamas out & about?

I wear nice, clean PJ pants when I fly. Airplanes/airports are really uncomfortable. I also usually fly late so it's near midnight when I arrive. And no, it doesn't say " I've given up and have no respect for myself or anyone else."
There is a difference between nice yoga pants or lounging pants and flashy people of walmart pjs. I try not to even stop by the grocery store after the gym if I can help it. I just think some items of clothing are only appropriate at your house or the gym. And there is also a difference between people like us that do it on the rare occasions where a day in the garden or housecleaning has the "oh rats I positively need xxx for dinner" and the people that think it's completely acceptable to show up at your attorney's office looking like that!
Mary Fischer, you are an as$. The only thing lazy in this article is your style of writting.
I would enjoy seeing a photo of you at any point in your day to compare.
It is quite obvious they are not pajama pants.
Depends on the pajamas - I have worn my one piece pajamas out but then I think they look kinda cute: http://www.funzee.com/funzee-range/cute-funzee
