Topic: What do you prefer to wear to bed? and what do you actually wear?

[ChrissyRyan]

As I like my gown a lot, I decided to try to find another.
We will see if ai come up with another!

I got a comfy blue floral long nightgown.  Keeps me warm.

I prefer and always wear bath gowns at home.

 

I have several gowns of various colors for both winter and summer.

Another full length nightgown arrived this week!
It is comfy and feminine.

I wonder if they would be comfortable to wear when it gets warmer.
Perhaps the shorter one would be better in the warmer months.

For now though, I like the warmth these long gowns provide.
I think this will be the last one for now, as you can use only so many.

Dear Chrissy:
In the warmer weather you can wear lighter weight "cotton" nightgowns... just above the knee length.

When it is warmer, I will wear sleeping shorts and a lightweight T-top ....
...or just a cotton lightweight Sleep Shirt that reaches just above my knees.

Wintertime, bitter cold weather, I am wearing sweat pants, hoodie sweatshirt and wool socks.

I will likely revert to my summer sleepwear practice, which includes much of the above.
I will add to that a short nightgown.

A red one. This is thinner than the white one, and I usually wear it in spring and fall, sometimes wear it in winter.

I picked up an aqua chemise with black trim as part of my clothes “down sizing” this past weekend… and I’m trying it out tonight! Hopefully my shoulders don’t freeze because it’s otherwise comfy!

Hugs!!

I recently found a nice pair of pink sweat pants when we were going through some of my wife's old clothes in the basement and now they are my new sleepwear. Usually I just wear a t shirt on top. I move around a lot so nothing loose works.

I recently bought two lightweight nightgowns for warmer weather.  One is a nice cotton gown with a square neck, it is really cute.  The other has a more satiny feel and is shorter than the cotton gown.  I had satiny type bathrobe but nothing for wearing all night in bed.

The flannel gowns are warm and can be used for lounging around the house but seemed on some nights to be too warm to wear recently.  I was using some high low hem t shirts to sleep in recently but I decided that I would try these two gowns.  They seem to be working out well.

   This summer I am wearing a long "sleep-shirt"    and  sometmes
 "sleep shorts" and a loose T-shirt.

When I am away at work I wear a short length nighty with cats on, I have 3, each slightly different design so rotate. At home I wear a long T shirt, plain, one is yellow, the other peach. The T is so close to being a nighty but it keeps K happy.

I have to remind myself that I carry fat on my lower body.  If I cover my upper and lower body the same I can feel cold because I don't have enough insulation up top!  I feel warmer if the lower body is more exposed in cold weather.

I started wearing a sleeveless nightgown in hot weather.

In the summer I wear shear baby dolls, most are very short but I do have some longer ones.  In the spring and fall, it’s mid-thigh/knee length, satin or chiffon nightgowns.  In the winter it’s ankle length satin or chiffon nightgowns.  Sometimes I do mix it up on occasion depending upon my mood.  I’m fortunate enough to be able to wear what I prefer.  Oh, and all with panties, well most of the time anyways.

That sounds nice.  I am still looking over some sleek satiny ones, I think I prefer the sleek, single color ones with spaghetti straps.

Had a fancier one with bows but slept in it just twice and washed it twice and it seemed to have lots of loose threads. so I donated it.  It was quite girly.  To my surprise there was one nightgown that popped up online that looked very close to it and it had a description of being sissy wear!  For sure, not for me as I am a woman.  Funny in a way, glad though that it is donated!  Ruffles, lace, and bows, over the top girlie.

I am unsure exactly what a baby doll nightie is, because I looked online and there seems to be quite the variety of them and some seem different than others.  Maybe they tend to be any sexy nightie?

It has been quite warm this last week, and tonight there are thunderstorms and it is somewhat humid.

For bedtime I will be wearing just my long and light sleep shirt tonight.

@Chrissy

When I think about the classic baby doll, it’s very short, it has cups like a bra or bralette and is snug under the bust, and is very shear or lacy the rest of the way down.  By very short, I mean just to the bottom of the bottom, and if you’re a tall girl, maybe it doesn’t quite make it that far

But now, I think you’re right, they tend to be any sexy nightie.

I am still looking at the various styles.  Spaghetti straps are nice but some wider straps look nice too, there is much variety.  My cotton floral gown is nice and of lighter fabric than my flannel ones.  The ones I have I can lounge in, so that versatility is a plus for them.

I slept in a satiny (made of polyester) mid thigh length gown last night.
It is sleek, shiny, with thin shoulder straps.  Although it looked nice and felt nice, I think that a cotton gown or sleep shirt may be better to sleep in. While the satiny one is good looking and nice to the touch, it might not be of the right material to sleep in on a warm night.  I will give it another try soon.

The longer cotton floral gown is better for lounging and sitting around reading a book in the house.
The shiny one is shorter and is more revealing and shape clinging.  I could go the porch and read with the long floral gown but I would not with the satiny gown.

It was nice waking up in my cotton floral nightgown and then just lounging in bed.
It was very satisfying to enjoy the pleasantness of early morning.  Seeing all the little flowers on my nightgown and feeling the morning breeze was really comforting, I felt so safe and warm.

Have a wonderful day everyone!
