How to Choose PJs That Work as Streetwear<\/h2>\n

Before we get to the styling, we need to choose the proper type of loungewear:
\nFabrics<\/b>
\n\"\"\u25cf Cotton: Very light for Indian summers; Excellent feel and look for daywear.

\n\u25cf Fleece \/ Sweatshirts: Perfect for heading out to get a cup of coffee in winter.
\nPrints<\/b>
\n\u25cf Checks, stripes, subtle florals for a refined outside look
\n\u25cf Loud cartoon\/graphic prints for a casual errand run or friendly gatherings
\nFit<\/b>
\n\u25cf A Baggy or oversized look is better than a tailored or semi-structured fit
\n\u25cf Pants with a (relatively) high waist give a more \u201cintentional\u201d look.
\nColours<\/b>
\n\u25cf Neutrals, jewel tones, earthy greens, navy blues \u2014 always streetwear-ready.<\/p>\n
