There are just some things that are not to be worn to in public, specific seasons, or at all in general. Everyone thinks it, and I am just here to say it (well rather write it).

Pajamas are not Clothes.
The sighting of one of many culprits of a fashion faux pas was spotted this afternoon at Chipotle Mexican Grille. Now, I completely understand that it was chilly and raining, and maybe you just didn't want to get out of bed. But rolling out of your front door and into a somewhat crowded restaurant for a late lunch in your pajamas is just completely unacceptable. I mean c'mon, you're wearing shoes. You had time to tie up your squeaky-clean tennies, but you couldn't throw on a pair of jeans, or even sweatpants? I mean sweatpants are just like pajamas in the sense of comfort, but unlike pajamas they are completely acceptable to wear in public due to the fact that they can be worn to gyms (which are public places), and are a great form of casual lounge-wear. So I advise you to think twice the next time you bend over to tie those shoes that you happen to be wearing with your flannel pjs, and just take one step further and put on some appropriate bottoms.

I've got to give the pajama and shoe people credit for at least putting shoes on. I'm sure we've all seen the pajama bottoms and slippers folks out in public or sitting next to us in class. We didn't want to be at the 9am class just as much as you didn't but that's no excuse to roll out of bed and onto the 28 or 29.
ReplyDeleteWell, admittedly (as the kind of dude who totally advocates pajamas at all possible scenarios) there's a time and a place. When you step outside, there are always going to be prying eyes, whether they are scornful or complimentary. I guess my only concern with wearing pajamas out of the house is that they're not really of a thick enough fabric to really be pants.
ReplyDeleteThis reminds me of freshman year in the dorms. Girls would only wear Ugz and pajama bottoms. I mean, I know their room is really close, but you're still outside in blue pajamas covered in monkeys!
ReplyDeleteLuckily for me I don't where pajamas so I can't really get in trouble with this one, but to be honest, it is pretty tacky to where the pajamas out in public. This isn't your bedroom!
