The best women’s pajamas overall
Why you'll love them: So comfortable, you won’t want to take them off when it’s time to get dressed for work, but never fear — The J. Crew Dreamy Cotton Pajamas will be waiting for you when you get back home.
“Ahhh.” Is there any feeling quite so wonderful as the moment you kick off those heels, take off those constricting pants, remove your bra, and slip into a set of supremely comfortable, oh-so-easy-on-your-skin pajamas? Well, when those pajamas are the Dreamy Cotton set from J. Crew, the feeling is even better.
These supremely cute jammies are made of 100% soft cotton with a bit of stretch, so there's no squeezing, pinching, or cutting at your waistline or anywhere else. There’s elastic plus a drawstring, so you can let the waist in or out as you feel the need. The fit is just right: not overly baggy, but not at all tight.
Best Products called these jammies “Worth hitting the snooze for,” and added that they are crazy comfortable.
Reviewers on J. Crew’s own website love the Dreamy Cotton Pajamas, raving about their softness, fit, and good looks. A few buyers said that the pants run a bit long, however.
The Dreamy Cotton Pajama set comes in only two colors: navy stripe or gray stripe. Unusual for pajamas, J. Crew carries the set in both petite and regular sizes — but that's good news for shorter women.
Pros: Soft and comfortable, good fit, wide range of sizes including petite
Cons: Only two colors to choose from, pricey

They’re cute as well. Satin trim around the neck and leg openings adds a feminine touch. The elastic waist won’t pinch or bind. The overall cut of the pajamas is loose, but not too baggy. They're perfect for lounging, sleeping, or even a quick dash to the store in the summer.
