Satin pajama sets have become a street style staple and we’ve got fresh ways to wear them. Here’s how to wear a satin pajama set outside of the house for date night, brunch, and everything in between.

Think casual luxury.

It’s hard to pinpoint exactly when satin pajama sets went from fashion faux pas to fashion statement, but there’s no denying the fact that they have officially reached peak popularity. (Just ask Zendaya or Chrissy Teigen.) The votes have been cast, the winner has been crowned, and it’s time to don the comfiest outfit in your wardrobe: your pajamas.

But let’s be clear: these aren’t just any PJs. Satin pajamas are the epitome of casual luxury, straddling the realms of public and private. And with an unexpected accessory (read: a statement belt), they can quickly be transformed. Ahead, satin pajama ‘fits that range from Target run-appropriate to brunch-ready and even date-approved.

With a Pastel Button-Down

You can make any satin pajama set work for spring by tossing on an oversized button-down shirt. A bright pastel breaks up the singularity of a matching set while the oversized fit of the shirt creates a casual, unexpected silhouette.

With a Statement Bag and Heels

They might not always be functional, but statement bags are always intentional. Add a pair of high heels and you’ve got yourself a look that’s elevated, not sleepy.

With a Handkerchief Top

We’re not complaining about the return of this ’90s and Y2K fashion staple. After all, we file handkerchief tops in the “comfy, but make it fashion” category. Available with or without straps, depending on the level of support you need, a handkerchief top is perfect for breaking up a satin pajama set. Wear it under an unbuttoned top with a pair of matching shoes for the ultimate not too matchy-matchy, moment.

With a Zip-Up and Crop Top

If you like a touch of athleticism in your casual outfits, this is the satin pajama set outfit for you. The contrast created by athleisure wear like a zip-up cropped hoodie and crewneck tank along with satin pajama bottoms gives this look major fashion street cred without giving up any of the comfort and ease of, well, pajamas.

With a Statement Coat

There's something charming and vintage-inspired about layering a robe-style coat over printed PJs. Vibrant shades of scarlet are always a standout option, but any primary color will bring this look together.

With a White Tank and Tote

Sometimes, “just rolled out of bed” is the vibe and for those times, we recommend pairing a simple white tank with your fave striped satin pajamas. Stripes give a nod to menswear and classic color combinations like navy and white drive the point home. Grab a knitted tote bag and you’ll be ready for brunch or a day of running errands.

With Cowboy Boots

If you love a look that channels a bit of whimsy, pair a printed satin pajama set with cowboy boots. We recommend playful prints and pastels, plus a beaded or crystal-embellished bag to ensure the overall vibe is intentional and dreamy, not childish.

With a Contrasting Robe

Live your best sleepwear life by donning a dressing robe over your satin pajamas. This look works best with contrasting patterns, but would also look equally put-together and intentional with complementary colors.

With a Statement Bra

For a truly show-stopping look, pair an illusion-statement bra with an oversized blazer and pajama bottoms. (You can always button a few of the lower buttons for a more understated look.) This look calls for pointy-toe pumps, but you can also wear flats without losing any of the main character energy. Unlike the other blazer-forward look on this list, wearing something very oversized works best for this look.

With a Denim Jacket

Denim jackets are a wardrobe staple for a reason: they work with almost everything—including, yes, pajamas.

With a Statement Belt

It’s one of the few fashion adages that has stood the test of time: when it doubt, belt it. Keep in mind, a statement belt doesn’t have to be a functional necessity—it’s simply a bold accessory that elevates any outfit.

As a Monochromatic Matching Set

Quiet luxury is all about understated elegance. To channel the trend, opt for a monochromatic satin set, no bells or whistles required.
