Sometimes when Mav leaves for work I am still in my pajamas and by the time he gets home they are back on. So I try to wear prettier night clothes. With four children the sexy lingerie will just have to stay on the back burner for a bit. (or in a suitcase in my closet as it were) But completely giving up isn't an option. The easiest solution is to have plenty of slips and at the end of the day I just take off my dress and have an instant 'night gown'. I keep a cardigan handy (ala Mr. Rogers) that way I don't need to hide my pretties under a robe to keep warm. But when a robe is needed I have some lovely ones. Pictured above is a beautiful one my mom just picked up at a garage sale. I found the 1920/30's silk night gown I am wearing with it in the bottom of a drawer recently and can't remember where it come from. I love little surprises like that! I wish you could see the detail better.
I am in my pj's quite often too. I need to find some smarter looking ones. The flannel and fleece just don't cut the mustard.
ReplyDeleteThat first photo, WOW! Now that's a way to greet your husband!
ReplyDeleteI love the long nightgown. I've always wondered what the tiny, little pockets were for...
You look super pretty! Lucky husband!
