SHOPPERS are in a frenzy over Matalan’s new range of Christmas PJs, with matching sets available for the little ones.
The festive season is just around the corner, and many of us will have started excitedly making plans for December 25th.
There’s nothing better than the whole family cuddling up on the sofa watching a Christmas film, and it’s even better if you’ve all got matching pyjamas to cosy up in.
Matalan‘s Women’s Joyful Red Candy Cane Pyjama Set is priced at £18, and is available in a wide range of sizes, from small to extra large.
The fleecy material will keep you nice and toasty all night long, and the adorable candy cane pattern is bound to get you in the festive spirit.
A description on the Matalan website reads: “Our Candy Cane Pyjama Set in red is the perfect way to keep cosy and comfortable this Christmas.
“Made from a soft fleece fabric, with an all over candy cane print, these pyjamas are sure to be a hit.
“Part of our joyful trend, combining warmth, style, and comfort to bring a cosy and vibrant touch to your style.”
The pyjamas also come in kids sizes, from age seven to age 13.
The children’s versions are priced between £9 and £10 and have the exact same pattern and style.
The pyjamas were shared to the We Love The High Street Instagram page, where shoppers raced to share their love for the products.
One person said: “Oh, they are so cute.”
Another person said: “These came home with me.”
And Matalan isn’t the only shop selling matching family pyjamas this festive season.
Primark’s much-loved family pyjama sets (also known as Fam Jams) are returning for another yuletide season after selling out in days last year.
“Whether you wear your matching family Christmas pyjamas on Christmas morning, throughout your festive feast or simply slip into them for a cosy movie marathon, they’re a must-have for the festive season,” bosses at the fashion giant said.
CLEMMIE Fieldsend, Fashion Editor at Fabulous, has shared her top tips for looking fabulous this Christmas.
AVOID: Christmas jumpers
No longer a novelty gag, they’re now gone back to being naff and have no place at a festive party.
By all means, go all in for Christmas Jumper Day for Save The Children, but never wear it before or after that day.
WEAR: Burgundy
You can’t escape burgundy at this time of year and it’s a luxury, deep and rich colour that is a welcome break from Santa-red at Christmas.
Opt for silky textures or velvet for extra style points.
AVOID: PJs
The trend of feather trimmed co-ords has had its day and is so dated.
Don’t pull out your hair plucked pair this year, and don’t get a new set, instead still go for the satin two-piece but just steer clear of the plumes.
WEAR: Sequin Dress
Try to switch up sequins slightly by wearing them with a different texture or colour, eg a sequin skirt with a sleek knit.
But when you’re really stuck on what to wear reach for the sequins, it is Christmas after all.
AVOID: Sequin blazer
Nothing worse than showing up to a festive do looking like the hired entertainment.
Leave the sequin blazer to magicians and Strictly judges, instead always reach for a classic tux style or velvet.
WEAR: Bling trousers
Last party season embellished jeans with diamante bling had a moment, and this year they’re going to be as much of a hit.
If you don’t want gemstones pinging off wherever you go then try metallic, PU trousers.
“Our super-cute family Christmas pyjamas will give you all the festive feels.
“From traditional tartan prints to winter wonderland themed sets featuring your favourite Christmas characters, we’ve got a style to suit everyone, four-legged friends included!”
This year’s designs include The Simpsons, The Grinch and classic Christmas prints.
“This Simpsons pyjama set brings a playful touch to Christmas morning,” Primark bosses said.
“In a cheerful red, it features Homer, Marge, Bart, Lisa, and Maggie dressed in festive outfits, alongside Christmas trees and snowflakes.
“And enjoy sweet dreams with the help of your favourite festive film thanks to these The Grinch fleece pyjamas!
“The long sleeve top features a round neck and eye-catching The Grinch design.”
