PJs You Can Totally Wear to Holiday Dinner

Holiday festivities are fast approaching, and we've decided that the universal dress code this year is comfy-cute. We're not just talking about cozy sweaters and jeans (though we love those, too). No, we're declaring it officially acceptable to show up to family dinner in your PJs. TBH, the last thing anyone needs to worry about right now is being uncomfortable in too-tight trousers or a scratchy sequined dress.

Plus, Gap makes it easy to transform pajamas into a runway-ready 'fit with adorable plaid sets, sophisticated collared tops, and versatile ribbed leggings. There are also plenty of options in festive colors and patterns. Just tell your traditionalist grandparents that we gave you permission to wear flannel in the formal dining room this year.

PS: All of the PJs on this list would make amazing last-minute gifts. You're welcome!
