Slumbering in style

AH, what better way to revel in these last few hazy, lazy days of the holiday season (holding onto them desperately, more like) than in the most comfortable apparel money can buy: pyjamas.

PJs are an item of clothing that, deceptively, have to live up to fairly exacting standards. Depending on your preference and sleep habits, they have to be either lightweight or warm, cottony or silky, one-piece or separates, short or long, and understated or cheery. Anything falling short of such expectations runs the risk of destroying that precious commodity known as sleep.

In the interests of protecting your slumber, I thought I'd share with you my selection of preferred sleepwear.
