The summer holidays are almost over. The cold, wet days are finally rolling in.
While we’ve been reaching for a sweatshirt in recent weeks because this August hasn’t quite been the 30-degree heatwave promised, we’re ready for the incoming pyjama-clad duvet days watching box sets.
And if we’re going to be living in our pjs from now on, why not make them stylish?
But the weather isn’t the only culprit making us lust after snow days spent in a onesie and not moving a muscle, in fact, Primark’s latest drop of ultra chic, Gilmore Girls-themed pyjamas are also to blame for our winter wish.
Whether you’re a fan of the cosy show, which ended 18 years ago, or you’ve got a soft spot for all things chic and snuggly, we’ve whittled down the absolute best pyjamas to invest in now for the colder months.
From short sleeve options to long, full-coverage sets and even nighties and from brands spanning New Look, Fat Face, Anthropologie and more, here are the nightwear staples that not only look great, but will keep you warm and cosy this season.
All you need is to bank the box sets, bookmark your favourite cosy winter movies, and stock pile the snacks. It’s time to hibernate!
The best pyjamas to buy right now
ASOS DESIGN pyjama top co-ord in red gingham
It’s giving Damson Madder vibes, but for nighttime, though we would easily wear the top out with jeans. It’s perfect for a festive sleepover with your girls.
New Look Loungeable Black Ribbed Shirt and Trousers Pyjama Set
There’s an uncanny resemblance to Skim’s long sleeve PJ set, just New Look’s version is almost £100 cheaper.
Next Oatmeal Pumpkin Long Sleeve Pyjamas
All you need is a pumpkin spiced latte and Hocus Pocus on replay on a wet and windy October weekend, are we right?
M&S Cotton Modal Zebra Print Revere Pyjama Set
We’re dreaming of those starry nights captured in this print, so this set gets our vote of confidence for a cosy nightwear set.
Fat Face Pink Breakfast In Bread T Shirt
If you like to mix and match your pyjamas then you’ll appreciate Fat Face’s Breakfast In Bread slogan t-shirt, which you can wear on its own, with shorts, or long PJ bottoms. Alternatively, size up a few and wear it as a nightie.
Fat Face Eva Ivory Pastry Pyjama Bottoms
Just in case you do want to shop the full matching set at Fat Face, which we obviously do because these jogger-like bottoms will prevent any draughts creeping in.
Cyber Jammies Auburn Womens Pumpkin Print Pyjama Set
Cyber Jammies has launched the most fitting pair of pyjamas for autumn we have ever seen. This set is emblazoned with amber leaves and pumpkins to really get us in the feel for autumn. Plus it’s available in children’s sizes so you and your mini-me can match.
Next Pink Pumpkin Long Sleeve Pyjamas
The louche fit sweatshirt-like top and jogger bottoms makes this the perfect set for lounging at home this autumn, and wearing to bed. It delivers on comfort, style, warmth and affordability.
Next Mocha Brown Jersey Button Through Pyjamas
We love a button front pyjama shirt and loose fit bottoms, but this mocha shade screams hot chocolate and marshmallow season.
By Anthropologie Oversized Button-Front Pyjama Shirt
If you are one who likes to splurge on their nightwear, this is the pyjama top to do so. The bottoms are sold separately for £58. What we love about this PJ set is it offers a relaxed straight fit so you don’t get caught up at night, but the print is subtle and not too overwhelming for the minimalists among us.
Piglet in Bed Berry Gingham Pyjama Shirt
A gingham print pyjama never goes out of style, and we particularly love this berry tone that is in keeping with the warm jewel tones of autumn/winter. Shop the matching trousers, or shorts, separately. Plus, you can buy a matching set for your partner, as well as a full bedding set to really show your appreciation to gingham.
These pjs really are everything you need to prepare for snuggle season.
