Do you wear your sleep clothes outside in public. I seen some people do it and it looks really comfortable. Do you do it and is it comfortable? I like to wear loose clothing so my body can feel free lol. And its pretty cold outside here and I want to wear layers of clothing. Cold at night and morning and warm in the evening lol. Wish it was warm all day. You some places dont allow you to wear pajamas. Like my school had this rule announced no pajamas! lol. Some people wear pajamas and get busted but I was wondering you shop or anything with pajamas on? People that wear pajamas usually sleep somewhere lol. What are your insights in this? Are you a pajamaer or a normal clothing walk around person?

I don't wear my PJ's out in public, thought have been known to run to the mail box outside the door in them. I love my PJ's and live in the while at home but I dont find them to comfortable for being in the view of the public. I see this alot too, and find it to be a bit tacky when your in a decent place and they are all wearing PJ's and slippers... I mean come on, at least wear shoes!

I don't wear my pajamas out of the house at all. It looks ridiculous and funny to wear pajamas out of the home. I will not feel comfortable at all. In fact i do see some people who wears pajamas out and i noticed that they are usually older ladies.

I think its awful when I see people walking around outside in their pajamas. They are to wear to bed not out shopping etc. I don't care if they are wearing them to take out the garbage or something fast like that but if they are literally going to the post office or to get groceries and are wearing pajamas then I think its an indicator as to their intelligence. At one point it was a fad in high school to wear boxes as shorts but it didn't last very long and you don't see people walking around like that much anymore. I would never go to the store wearing my sweatpants that I wear to bed or my pajama bottoms. I would feel so humiliated. My daughter wasent feeling well today so I let her go to my parents house for my fathers birthday. I let her wear her sleeper pajamas there but that is the first time I allowed her out of the house for the day without making her put her regular day clothes on. And she is only 4.

hello gamingworld no i do not think that i have ever worn pajamas out anywhere before in public. but i love lounging around my house in comfy clothes like that thou and sleeping in them as well. i like to get as cozy and comfy as i can when that i want to. and i have seen lots of people out shopping in public before wearing their house shoes. lol and lots of women were their hair rollers in their hair with a scarf or without a scarf when they would be out shopping like that. i am sorry but i am not going to look like that when that i am out and about shopping. lol take care and have a beautiful afternoon.

Sometimes I sleep in pants that can be worn out in public. I wear some of these sleep pants that are flannel to the store at night if something comes up and I have to run a quick errand to get a forgotten item. Good discussion.

That's silly. I wear sweats (banded sweatpants) and hoodies around town - I don't really care. It's a little weird to see people decked out in real pajamas though, especially at school. I usually wear jeans or dress pants (if I'm doing something after work) but rarely sweats..although they're totally comfortable! Once you're out of high school (which I'm assuming you're in..) and if you decide to go to college, you'll soon realize that EVERYONE who goes will most likely be wearing sweats or some type of pajamas to school each day. It's ridiculous. You'll be thankful that you decided to follow your high school's rules & wear jeans! :)

I don't wear pajamas or sleep wear in public. If I have to go somewhere then I will make sure that I will change my clothes and wear something more appropriate. I'm not against people who love to wear their pajamas though. If they are comfortable with it then it is good.

Yes i do. I am today actually lol I wore and still am my pajama pants out on my 40 minute walk with my dog today and am going to the store later and i don't plan on changing out of them. it's very comfortable. I don't do it very often and today was kind of my first day...i just woke up and was like "screw it" i'm not changing... lol i remember every body wore pajamas to school when i was going. it was like the thing to do. they probably have a rule about it not being allowed now too. my cousin is always wearing his pajamas pants out in public and i think it's because of him that i started doing it lol

I wear pyjamas sometimes but i don't wear it out. It's not that common in my country. And i think if someone does this, it might be annoying for others. For me, pyjamas is for at home, i don't mind people wearing out, but not for me.

I never wear pajamas or sleepwear out. Actually I wear pajamas only after shower for a short time, afterwards I prefer to get dressed in my underwears. I notise some people just going around in sleeping clothing even on the street. That is something we are struggling to avoid negative impression to visitors.

i don`t use the clothes from sleeping to go even at the local store. No sir, i can`t do that. But, i must say, that i was sleeping in some clothes, but clothes that i was wearing them only in the house. Now, my mom buyed me some great pijamas and i like them a lot. Even now i`m wearing pijamas. If i don`t go out, or nobody it`s seeing me, i wear them all day long :D but this it`s rarely :D

i love to wear boxers when I am going to sleep. Because it is cool and nice to wear and you are very comfortable with it. I have around 10 boxer shorts in my closet. Try it. Its nice to wear one.

Decent people don't wear sleep clothes out in the public. Because if you're intelligent enough, there are appropriate dress that depends on time and occasion. Possible if you're going to the grocery just to buy some knick knacks and your in hurry, put on some shorts at least but not your pajamas. LOL.

Absolutely not. Here in my country that would be very wierd and I guess catch many stares, comments and snickers. I have seen people wear them around the area they live like running over to a nieghbours house for a something or out in thier own yard. I wear mine outside in the yard sometimes for a short while or stay in them most of the day indoors (when I have a day at home) as they tend to look and feel so comfortable sometimes. On a day off I usually just want to really relax and laze around.

I never wear pajamas in public and i see some people wear them outside as well.I guess it's must be comfortable.but it's not that polite to other people i think.In additiion,the pajamas are the clothes for poeple wear at home or when they off to sleep.if u wear it outside ,it won't be clean to wear inside. for me ,i am don't care someone's wearing it in public.but i won't do that.(*^__^*)
