    I wear my favorite pair of fleece bottoms from home to the dojo before I open it for classes. If I've been cleaning all day, and started the day in my pj's, I see no point in changing into regular clothes for the 1.2 mile drive from my driveway to the back of a building, just to change into my formal uniform.

    Beyond tacky in my opinion... my husband is active duty Army and there are a number of military wives that go everywhere in their loud tacky PJ's. They are some of the worst offenders around; so much so, that there is now a dress code on post that bans PJ's in public places among other things like saggy pants and too short shorts. I wish everywhere had a dress code sometimes.

    When I was a student, I worked in a hotel bar to pay my rent and food - I usually got home about 3am.

    I got up at 8am to get the paper from the local shop (about 5 mins walk across a busy road) If I didn't get the paper, they would be all gone, bought by people who were returning home from church and I looooooved my Sunday paper. Yes, I went to the shops in my PJs and usually wellies as they were easy to slip on and off. After a few weeks, the staff didn't even blink.

    When I got back home, I got back into my still warm bed, spread the papers out and usually went back to sleep after an hour of reading.

    It didn't mean I was lazy or giving up on life or any of the negative things that people have said on here. In fact, it was a perfect way to spend a quite Sunday after a busy week. Sometimes it is a practical solution to a temporary problem, no more, no less.

    This actually sounds like such a wonderful way to spend a Sunday that I cannot deny the charm of wearing PJs in public in this instance. Also, learned the new term of "wellies" for slippers.
    Wellies are gumboots

    On my friends baby sisters birthday we all went to Walmart in footie jammies to pick her up. (Her dad works there). We then put on cute dresses and went to Chippendales looking all hot.

    Some pajamas don't look like pajamas. Sometimes I buy pjs and they look so good that I choose to wear them as clothes instead as an outfit. I doubt anyone can tell the difference. Victoria Secret makes them classy. The tops with built in bras. I shower and everything. I don't even sleep in them. I've looked at those nasty Walmart pics and I know that isn't anything like what I wear. Unfortunately, there was a time when I sported a silky pink robe pjs slippers and all walking about two miles mid day with my boyfriend hungover. I really didn't give a crap. I was hungry. Besides, when you look good in anything, why not? Some people actually CAN rock pjs!

    NEVER EVER wear pjs in public. Once you do, you've said "that's it, I've given up".

    It's not hard to invest a little effort, people.

    AGREED! Unless you're sick with a raging flu virus or in labor...no PJs!

    Gym clothes are as low as I go in terms of fashion choices in public. I don't think I've actually seen a person (under the age of 2 or so) in pajamas in public. Then again, I've got this matching plaid flannel set/fuzzy slippers image thing going.

    No, some people just think they can. Those are the people we are laughing at in this thread.

    I'd give you the stink eye. Never ever do that. Unless your a baby and that's only because they have no choice

    I don't own any, personally. But I have gone to the store in slippers when I was sick.

    Sorry if I got my germs on you. And if you wear yours in public, I'm not offended, but I will giggle about it until the end of time.

    Girls who wear pjs in public are usually smelly. I bet they don't brush their teeth either...

    PJs are fine to get away with when in high school/college (and once in a blue moon). But I'm not a fan of seeing people wear pajama bottoms every day! That and I know I can't get away with the pajama bottoms look :frown: .

    When I was younger I would wear PJ pants to school sometimes. Ever since I bought yoga pants I don't find it necessary anymore. However if for whatever reason I do end up wearing PJs to the store one day and anyone wants to make a comment about it I'll tell you to eff off.

    I do what I want.

    During Hell Week/finals week, you'd be hard pressed to find anyone NOT in their PJs. At least, not on my college campus. We HAVE given up. Lol.

    Totally misread this title, sorry! Still, either way it depends upon how much alcohol is involved.

    I never wear PJ's --- don't even own a set. Personally, I don't find them appropriate in a public setting.

    I refuse to wear pjs out my house. I don't even like taking trash out in them. If I leave I'm in tee shirt and jeans. Just how it has to be. The closest I ever got to pjs was when I was pregnant I worse sweatpants once I got to big for my other clothes and I have 2 pairs of maturnity jeans I wore to work. As soon as I could wear jeans again I was.
