It’s called luxury, darling.

Picture (or dream of) this: You wake up refreshed and rested in a perfect silk pajama set, slip on your comfiest slippers and make a morning cup of hot water with lemon, and go on to conquer the day living your best, elevated life. Sleeping on or in silk is an ultimate luxury. But for most of us, sleeping in silk sheets just doesn’t make sense. Silk pajamas, on the other hand, are the perfect way to treat yourself. Not only do they make you look like wealth, but they’re cool, light, chic, and soft.
