Thanks for including mine, and the fabulous quote–I think I’m leaning toward public jammies being a sign of self-acceptance, being comfortable with who they are. And maybe that’s why I can’t wear them (I normally wear nightshirts, so it’s hardly the same look!)–however, I don’t dress to impress, but rather for comfort. So my new wardrobe is knit Capri length pants (a step above sweatpants)–and way over-sized T-shirts (somebody told me I look like a “gamer”, which didn’t thrill me especially–I’m a poet, for heaven’s sake! 🙂

  Some good ones there, Joy. Bedtime decisions for me would be a no-brainer. I don’t look good in the latter! Nada is better than either.

  Even on a hygge day, I prefer to stick with nada and just snuggle further under the duvet. The only times I worry about that are when I’m staying away and the fire alarm might go off in the middle of the night.
  I’m hoping that Esther doesn’t give us ‘swimsuit’, resulting in the same dilemma: trunks, bikini or nada!
