Studies have shown that your surroundings have an effect on sleep quality, and it’s important to set the stage to make the most of your shut-eye. This includes (trying to) keep electronics out of the bedroom, lowering the temperature, minimizing clutter, eliminating ambient light, choosing cozy bedding and opting for pajamas that keep you comfortable. Here, a few options that look as good as they feel both in bed and around the house (or out and about)—and they just might even promote better sleep.
Lunya
One you slip into Lunya’s smooth, airy silk you’ll never want to sleep in anything else. Offering myriad styles ranging from breezy tees and tanks with matching shorts to robes and a jumpsuit (with a pocket!), these pieces will make it hard to leave the house. Yet the real beauty of this luxurious loungewear is that Lunya’s machine-washable silk adjusts to your body temperature, keeping you cool when it’s warm and toasty during cold, winter nights.
ThirdLove Seamless Leggings
This intimates brand may be known for its inclusive sizing (think bras with band sizes ranging from 30 to 48 and cup sizes from A to I), but the leggings are the loungewear stand-out. The breathable bamboo fabric prevents you from getting too hot or too cold, and the knitted texture sets them apart from any other leggings in your wardrobe. And with no tags or seams there’s no risk of rubbing to disturb your sleep—and they do a great job at flattering your shape as well. P.S. They are approved for out-of-the-house wear as well.
Sleeper
There’s a fine line between loungewear and going-out-wear these days, and the dresses and pajama sets from Sleeper has you covered for both. From silk slip dresses and off-the-shoulder frocks to coordinating tops and bottoms (many of which feature maribou feathers for extra fabulousness) you could literally live in Sleeper’s posh PJs, which are almost too pretty to sleep in.
Negative Underwear
If elevated basics are your jam, meet your new jammies. Soft, understatedly sexy and built for layering, these bralettes, briefs, tanks, sleep shirts, shorts and pants are designed for hanging out comfortably without sacrificing style. Serving up both stretchy and slouchy styles, these pieces are so lightweight you don’t feel like you’re wearing anything at all.
Skin
Skin is all about organic cotton and sumptuous silk, and this expansive range of sleep-ready pieces includes tanks, tees, slips, robes, shorts, pants and anything else you could ever want to lounge around in. From unadorned-yet-chic basics to lace-embellished camis that look equally as sexy on the couch as they do under a blazer (plus bras, panties, bodysuits and more), Skin can help you say, “I woke up like this” for real.
