I'm particular when it comes to loungewear [1] — it has to be cute and extremely comfortable. If I can't bend down in a pair of joggers without yanking them up, they're getting sent back! I have a ton of daytime loungewear [2], but lately, I've been struggling to find pajama-style loungewear I want to sleep in. When I go to bed, I don't like lightweight materials, so when I search for sleep-worthy PJs, I tend to look for thicker fabrics with tons of stretch.
I recently spotted these Old Navy Cozy Rib-Knit Rollover-Waist Pajama Shorts [3] ($17) and knew they had major potential. Next I found a matching Cropped Plush-Knit Pajama Lounge Top [4]($17) to go with them.
When the package arrived, I ripped it open, touched the fabric, and said, "Holy crap, this is soft!" The shorts were absolutely perfect. I had a hunch based on the way they fit the model they'd be a little loose, and they were. The knit is ribbed and a mix of rayon, polyester, and spandex. I put them on and fell in love immediately. They hit a few inches above my knees but are long enough so my thighs don't touch while I sleep (a pet peeve). The waistband has a built-in tie with an even softer rollover waist that sits softly on the skin. The matching top is luxe and has a boxy cut, though it isn't ribbed, so they have different textures to them. The set also comes in a darker charcoal material, and I'm absolutely going to get it.

I love the details on these Cozy Rib-Knit Rollover-Waist Pajama Shorts [6] ($17). The ribbed texture makes them look ultracozy, and the rollover waistband is perfect for wearing with crop tops.
Old Navy Cropped Plush-Knit Pajama Lounge Top
The Cropped Plush-Knit Pajama Lounge Top [7] ($17) is equally as soft and has a cropped fit, so it looks super cute with the shorts.
