as the story goes, pajama fashion can take you farther than you think. in my first article, the pajama tales- pt.1, i discussed how i conduct business, fine dine, travel, and date in my pajamas. i have many more tales of how a modern girl on the go can make her pajamas stretch beyond the bedroom. here are another five things i often do while wearing mine.

pajama tale no. 6- i’m a chef and entertainer, all in my pajamas.

are you able to go directly into greeting your guests at the door and hosting your dinner party, without a wardrobe change? because i only wear the flyest loungewear pajamas you can find, i work my look from prep through after dinner drinks.

pajama tale no. 7- i spa in my pajamas.

two years in a row, at two separate new year’s eve parties i wore my kimono wrap, accessorized with a handbag, heels and jewelry. who knew? for my more frequent dance parties, i just cue up my favorite playlist and dance for my westie.

pajama tale no. 10- i go shopping in my pajamas.

Home Office Lounging

by on 10. Nov, 2010 in Erin's Lounge, Uncategorized

There are definitely some benefits to working in the home.  My office is set up at home, and I love it.  Even though I have pretty much outgrown the space, I make the most of it and that means dressing the part.  There are rules to picking the right home office clothing.  Some people think that if they work at home in their pajamas, that’s acceptable.  Well…it isn’t to me, so here are some lessons in this area that I’ve learned.

lesson no. 1- lack of pride in your appearance will transcend to your business.

if you’re sitting around in your pajamas, you may be more inclined to lie on the couch instead of sitting at your desk. you may be tempted to run that errand tomorrow because you’re not dressed and ready to go. you don’t need to get up every morning and put on a power business suit, but comfortable clothing options are always an alternative.

lesson no. 2- choose some comfortable loungewear clothing that is versatile enough to take you through your day, whether in or away from the home office.

there’s no need to jump up and throw on your workout clothes unless you’re planning to workout. the right clothing can be comfortable enough for home, and transition to a business lunch or meeting outside of the home office if needed. that way, if you have to be called upon to be somewhere quickly, you’ll be prepared.

lesson no. 3- set the standard of dress code for those who you currently have working in your home office, or those you will one day hire.

as your home office grows, you’re going to eventually bring in others to help you.  just like in any other work setting, you’ll have to set a standard of dress. while it will most likely be lax, making sure your employees are prepared for the same unpredictable work day you are, is key.

comfortable clothing is key no matter what the occasion. if you look good you’ll feel good. feel better in your home office by dressing for the success of your company.  shop online for comfy clothing.

pajamas can be the most versatile clothing in your wardrobe. i’ve found many uses for my pajamas and several occasions appropriate to wear them. but first, i call my pajamas “loungewear,” that way i can get away with so much more.

here is a short list of some of the things i do in my pajamas.

pajama tale no. 1- i attend business meetings and make multi-thousand dollar deals. all in my pajamas.
seeing how i home office, working in my pajamas is one of the perks.

pajama tale no. 2- steak and lobster dinners with clients, then after dinner drinks. all in my pajamas.
if you pick the right pajamas, they can double as loungewear, and then triple as daywear. with a change of shoes and accessories, you can achieve a completely different look, taking your pajamas from indoors to out in a flash.

pajama tale no. 3- would you prefer the window or the aisle, while traveling in your pajamas?
what better place to wear your pajamas than on a stuffy, uncomfortable airplane? you’re already packed in the plane like a can of sardines, freezing from the recycled air conditioning air, and sitting next to some odd stranger. if you can’t control anything else in your in-flight environment, at least you can make yourself comfortable with the right outfit.

pajama tale no. 4- i love to greet the neighbors in my pajamas.
whether it’s walking the dog, checking the mail, or simply opening the front door. once you remove the fuzzy slippers, what is there to be embarrassed about, if you make the right choices in your pajamas?
