I wasn't sure if this would have to be pajama only or if I could wear it out, but I do both! I love this dress, wear it all the time. I'm going to get some of the other patterns because I just enjoy it so much and it's so comfy. I get compliments every time I wear it. FYI--I got the small, I'm 5'8" and 120 lbs, and for my fellow flat chested girlies, it looks great on.
