And sure, we can get by sleeping in old gym shorts and a t-shirt, but it&#8217;s decidedly more luxurious to have a real sleep set. And did you know that silk pajamas help keep your skin moisturized? Yes &#8212; that means there&#8217;s a medical benefit to high-end PJs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Your practical side will argue that only you and maybe one other person see your pajamas. And both you and that other person are perfectly fine with your <a href=\"https:\/\/www.thebudgetfashionista.com\/archive\/target-pajamas\/\" class=\"rank-math-link\">Target pajamas<\/a>. But there\u2019s also the equally convincing point that you deserve some self-care and luxury in your life. So if you\u2019re dreaming of a silky sleepwear upgrade, go for it &#8212; especially if you&#8217;re still sitting on a generous holiday check from Grandma. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Silk is indulgent price-wise, but you can find pieces and sets for around $160 or less.

But you could certainly get your luxury fix in by lounging around the house in it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Caring for your silks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>If you invest in silk PJs, make sure you know how to care for them. Sadly, you can&#8217;t just throw them in the washer. Some silks can be hand-washed and others are dry-clean only. If the label says &#8220;dry clean only,&#8221; don&#8217;t risk a hand-wash. It&#8217;ll likely ruin your expensive piece. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To hand-wash silk garments, start with a small spot test using a mild detergent. Make sure the color doesn&#8217;t run and the feel of the fabric doesn&#8217;t change. If the spot test is successful, start by pre-soaking the piece in a mix of water and 1\/4 cup vinegar for 30 minutes.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Then toss the garment in your bathtub with cool water and gentle detergent. Let it soak for up to 30 minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Remove it and gently press between two clean towels to remove excess water. Don&#8217;t wring it out. You can hang it gently on a drying rack or dry it flat. If it dries with wrinkles, iron on the lowest setting.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Now that we&#8217;ve closed the books on another holiday season, we&#8217;re all ready for some quality sleep.
