Many of us have long working hours, but some just love sleeping. Good sleep is our ultimate goal. What you wear when you sleep is just as important as how much screen time. It is often overlooked and can lead to serious health issues. Your sleep clothes should be well-stitched and comfortable. This can cause problems with your sleep and constrict blood circulation. These are the top tips to remember before you buy your nightwear.

As we spend our money online or in stores looking for the perfect fit of jeans, tops, shoes, and other accessories, how can we ignore the nightwear that actually brings us to sleep? These are some tips to help you invest.

Sizes/ Customisation

It is important to buy a larger size as this will allow your body to breathe in the fabric. Get some customized and then go to bed in them. You will have trouble sleeping if they are too small.

The Drawstring

Many clothes, including pyjamas and pyjamas have a tight drawstring that can impede our ability to sleep well and maintain a comfortable posture. Comfort is key to a restful and peaceful night. Sometimes, you may have bad dreams if a particular cloth irritates your skin or restricts your movement. One night, I dreamed that someone was tightening my belt as I paraglided in my dream. I woke up from the dream. It was then that I realized it was my drawstring, which was too tight. That was when my body warned me. Drawstrings should not be too thin as they can easily damage your skin.

Buttons

Your sleepwear buttons must be intact and the correct size. The buttons play an important role in comfort, just like the drawstring. You should have them properly stitched on your sleepwear and they shouldn’t pop open during sleep.

Fabric

The fabric for nightwear shouldn’t be too thin or too thick depending on the temperature and season. It should not become brittle after just a few washes. Remember that we work remotely these days. You don’t want to embarrass yourself by buying something that isn’t too shabby and not too formal if you are having online video calls. Keep a spare nightgown or a full-length nightsuit in your bag just in case an emergency arises.

Colors

You don’t have to wear a regular Jane. These are great pick me ups. You may want to relax with a drink or video chat with friends, especially when dealing with the pandemic. Wear something bright and stylish.

Tags

Many nightsuits come with tags that itch, which can ruin the experience. If you’re buying in-store, try the item to see where the tag is placed. Or, if you order online, ensure a good return policy.
