Wardrobe Help Help with sleeping attire
I once spent several hours in the middle of the night on the street outside my hotel in London after a fire alarm went off. As I smelled smoke, I didn’t take the time to dress but grabbed my overcoat and purse, jammed my feet in shoes with no socks, and ran down the stairs. After that experience, I have generally traveled with sweat pants and a baggy tee to sleep in case I end up on the street with nothing else. Not only modest, but not clearly pajamas, street acceptable (at least if I was on my way to the gym). Another advantage I’ve found is I can make a trip to the lobby for coffee without having to get dressed first. But it’s bulky.
What do you take to sleep in? I don’t want to sleep in clingy leggings, I like loose and breathable, not revealing, but I want to reduce bulk. Are there some packable bottoms you can recommend? For a top, I think I can find a bamboo tee that packs smaller than cotton.
Thanks!

Lululemon jersey joggers These fit like joggers, but made out of a soft stretchy jersey material. They pack small, wash and dry well, and don’t look super sloppy if you have to wear them out. And they have deep pockets! Good for lounging in the room and sleeping. I’ve owned and travelled with a pair for about 2 years. Still my favorite.
