Sleepwear Question
I need to buy some pretty but not overtly sexual sleepwear. So far i have come up with almost nothing. Where do you ladies shop for pretty sleepwear? (things like long gowns etc?)

1. Thread needs pictures.
When I have company overnight, I will compromise and wear a tube sock.

3. "Almost nothing" sounds overtly sexual to me. I may not be much help here.

I sleep in a tee shirt, but I've bought things at both stores for hospital stays, or for family. They have some nice things, in my opinion.

6. Summer dresses, those light cotton shifts, make good sleepwear -
Back in the day, a nightgown was basically your light undershift or a long camisole anyway, and most of those summer dresses are based off shifts and camisoles. I saw some really nice white and light print empire waist cami-shifts with lace straps that buttoned up the front that would make excellent nightgowns in the ladies casual section. They're light enough to sleep in but "heavy" enough that nothing shows through.

Other options - a nice oversized teeshirt and men's plain boxers.

Good summer sleepwear, if you don't want to go nekkid.

10. Somehow there is an error at this link.
Just click on fashion at www.qvc.com and then click sleepwear.

11. My favorite came from Target
I like it so much I'm going to sew on new straps, 'cause they wore out!
We have a ceiling fan, not air conditioning, because only few nights are hot enough to make sleep uncomfortable... but for hot nights I like this kind of nightgown best.

Ballet-length, with narrow straps, cotton knit gown. Your arms aren't restricted (sleep with one arm bent under my pillow); if you get too warm you can throw the covers off and still have your rear covered ;) ; and the cotton knit is the most comfortable material because it's stretchy, and cool.

I looked at the sites others recommended-

This one would look great on you, Pri-

Very much like my favorite one...& much less $-

12. Sometimes you can find nice sleepwear at Sierra Trading Post
http://www.sierratradingpost.com/d/4421_Womens-Sleepwear-and-Robes.html

They have some fairly high-quality clothing at good prices. Great prices if you wear smaller sizes.
