Silk Pajamas and Silk Scarves For Formal Dressing

There is nothing like the feeling of decadence and softness that silk pajamas give you; especially after a hard day's work at the office. While many of today's pajama styles are often made of man-made materials such as polyester or acrylic, there is nothing like silk pajamas - particularly those luxurious and elegant silk pajamas with matching silky slipcovers that make you look like you just stepped out of an elegantly appointed French country retreat. Whether you are tossing and turning in your sleep or laying awake worrying about the next day's schedule, silk pajamas can provide the level of comfort and luxury that you need in order to fall asleep soundly at night. If silk pajamas are among your favorite bedding items, then consider making them a permanent feature of your bedroom furniture.

Although silk pajamas can be worn throughout the year, winter is often a time when they are most popular for use. Silk offers superior insulating properties that keep you warm in the coldest months of the year. However, while silk pajamas are a wonderful and versatile way to stay warm, if they are not washable and do not dry in their own product, they may earn themselves a rather unpleasant reputation. If you decide to give them away as gifts or sell them on consignment, they may earn a negative reputation because they are difficult to care for and because they are not as resistant to wear and tear as other types of bedding items. Fortunately, if you buy something with the option of dry cleaning or hand wash, you can easily ensure that your silk pajamas will last for years to come.

Many people today associate silk pajamas with weddings and proms; however, they are also an ideal item to buy for any special occasion. During these times of year, they are often used in place of more formal sleepwear, such as down linens and woolen crib sheets. Because they are so comfortable, silk pajamas make an excellent alternative to a regular pj. If you know someone who is expecting a baby, you can purchase some maternity pajama sets so that mom can have a comfortable alternative to the old sleeping attire. Silk pajama sets typically include a pair of pajama pants and a pair of pajama top; you can also add extras such as a blanket and additional pillow cases in the same set.

During the spring and summer, silk tees are very popular and look very elegant in any sort of pajama ensemble. If you want to add elegance to your pajama set, you can choose a silk tee with an elegant and stylish print. A teeter totter can be a cute addition to your silk pajamas or a classic white cotton tee can work equally well. Some women prefer to use silk tee shirts with a satin blouse over a silk pajama set, while others will pair the tee shirt with a silk blouse. Again, you can add extra accessories such as a throw across the chest or a matching cardigan to complete the look.

Fall and winter are both excellent times to wear a fancy pair of silky pajama pants and a silk scarf with an elegant print. During the warmer months, a lightweight silk jersey shirt is just what the doctor ordered. You will find that the best quality silk clothing comes from the silk regions of Asia and some manufacturers even offer a silk sweater that feels and looks as good as a wool sweater. You may think that it would be impossible to pull off a silk sweater or pants with a print, but we have tried it and people do it every day! You can really pull off this look if you have a solid color but if you prefer a more eclectic look, we suggest investing in a few solid colors that you can team together.

If you would like a more sophisticated look for your pajama sets, then a silk scarf that has a printed pattern will work very well. You can also choose silk pajama sets that include a bodice with a shawl or a shrug. We love these because they provide a great transition from lightweight pajama sets to heavier shawls and sweaters that wearers often combine with a silk scarf for additional warmth. With a little imagination, you can create a chic look that combines silk pajamas with some of the latest fashion.
