We've all seen the hesitant pictures of the entire family dressed in matching pajamas, and while I love that tradition, the so-called Mommy-and-Me trend needs to be updated. I've renamed it Family Fashion because it doesn't have to be exclusive to Mommy, and who is the Me anyway? From printed swim trunks for dad and baby to organic cotton striped PJs for aunt and child to beaded necklaces for grandma and glam-ma, the following picks can be worn by the entire family.
Despite my disclaimer that this isn't just for parents, there's a reason it's just in time for Mother's Day! "It's not enough to have a mini-me; I need him to dress like me too!"
I used to think the trend was weird and a little vain. But then my son received a striped Kule onesie that matched my Kule long-sleeve shirt, and it was just too adorable to be twinning with tiny him, so I've never looked back. You should be aware that the same thing could happen to you!
Are you looking for a way to make the holidays more enjoyable and exciting? This holiday season, you might be able to find matching Family Christmas Pajamas for the whole family. When your kids see mommy and daddy wearing identical prints as them, there's no better way to make them happy.
You couldn't be more mistaken if you figured matching holiday prints couldn't be very artistic. First, choose from a wide variety of Christmas themes, including reindeer, bells, Santa, elves wearing pointy hats, and, of course, snowflakes, snowmen, candies, sleighs, evergreens, and just about everything else associated with the winter and holiday season.
Although you can have a standard print for everyone in the family, you can also have sets with various prints for the tees and bottoms or pajamas. Printed tees with simple matching pajamas are an option for mommy and daddy. Alternatively, let's pursue the concept of adults wearing a pattern on a plain tee while the kids enjoy all-over prints.
Here's another thought: How about matching colors for the boys and girls in the household, with polka dots and tiny hearts for the boys and stripes and plaids for the girls? Did you expect the family dog to be abandoned? Certainly not! We have matching printed coats for the dog with the family Christmas pajamas theme to keep them warm and toasty. We haven't forgotten about the cat yet. You can also get them a coat in the same pattern. It's great if you can't get your pets to keep their coats on! With just a neck scarf, they can still join in the game.
Do you think your little girl's doll is missing out? There's no need to be concerned because the doll's prints are all synchronized. After all, isn't she a member of the family? So, this holiday season, make an enjoyable holiday even more memorable. You could even launch a new family tradition with your Christmas pajamas dominating the photos of everyone opening presents!
