The 24 Best Women's Pajamas on Amazon, According to Reviews
Wake up your sleep style with these cozy picks.
I'm willing to bet you have an old, baggy t-shirt from college you love to sleep in. Sure, there's nothing wrong with having an emotional attachment to sleepwear, but a brand-new pair of pajamas is the easiest way to upgrade your life. Simply put, good PJs can make you feel put together an in instant, even if you're just going to bed. I just replaced my raggedy tees with a few silk pajamas, and I've never felt more like a grown-up.
It may sound like an easy task, but finding the right PJs for you comes down to personal preference. Some fancy minimal sleeping attire, while others prefer being swaddled in soft, ankle-grazing nighties, silky separates, or pajama sets. For me, sleeping with pants on is a sort of personal hell, so cute sleep shirts are my go-to. Plus, you have to consider your sleeping habits and the season. If you're a hot sleeper or currently in need of summer PJs, breathable and sweat-wicking fabrics like cotton, modal, and rayon are your best bet. Meanwhile, if you prefer to be toasty warm, a flannel or jersey-knit pajama set will be your best friend.
The pajama market is crowded right now, which means there are endless options for every kind of sleepwear personality. Some even serve double-duty as carefree daywear. After digging through countless reviews, we've rounded up the best women's pajamas from Amazon to catch some Zs in. Whether you prefer shorts, cozy pants, or silky slips, we've got options for you backed up by countless five-star reviews.

Best Sleep Shirts on Amazon
There are two camps when it comes to sleepwear: those who wear pants and those who do not. If you're one of the latter, a breezy free-flowing button-down sleep shirt might be the pajama upgrade you need.
Channel Holly Golightly with this oversized button-up. Reviewers say it's especially soft and lightweight, perfect for sleeping in the warming months. It could even double as a swimsuit cover-up or summer top.
Customer review: "I got this as a sleep shirt and I love it; I could wear this all day and all night. It wrinkles easy (kind of odd to iron a sleep shirt but I digress). I will also use this as a swimsuit cover up. I plan on buying a few more in different colors."
If you're anything like me and hate the thought of wearing pants to bed, this sleep shirt is the way to go. You'll be perfectly covered up, yet still feel cool. This is a great option for new mothers, as the buttons make it easy to nurse. There are even options for long sleeves!
Customer review: "These are soft, cute and stylish. I took them to Europe and found them to be good for pajamas but can also double as a robe when putting on makeup, before getting dressed and not feeling exposed. Literally everyone who saw me in them, loved them. I need more!!!"
It's time to finally stop stealing your boyfriend's t-shirts for bed. You can steal his look, though, with this varsity-inspired sleep shirt. It's cozy, comes in a ton of different colors, and your significant other can have his shirt back.

A great slip dress doesn't need to be anything fancy. A basic one like this will not only serve as sleepwear but can also be worn under sheer dresses or to smooth panty lines. At just $17, it's not a bad idea to stock up on all of the neutral colors.
Customer review: "I have two of these and will buy more. They are soft, lightweight and the material wicks perspiration. They provide modesty for see-through dresses, as well as a smooth look... Also, when summer heat makes the air conditioning struggle to keep up, I wear these around the house. They are sexy, soft and cooling, as well as a great price."

Best Nightgowns on Amazon

It’s so feminine, cool and EXTREMELY comfortable.. it’s true to size , but if you have a smaller chest then probably go down 1 size."

I can't be the only one who sits in my robe for an embarrassingly long amount of time after a shower. If that sounds like you, then this robe is the perfect fit. It's incredibly soft and cozy, meaning you'll need real willpower to put your actual PJs on. Trust me, though, this robe is worth it come cold winter nights.
Customer review: "This robe is everything I thought it would be. Very soft and comfortable, I regularly wear a large “but” I ordered a size up because I like room in my robes. Very nice product I will order again!!"
A friend of mine recently got married and gave all of us bridesmaids matching robes. After wearing mine for nearly an entire day, I had to know where it was from. I couldn't believe her when she said it was only $10 on Amazon. This robe has a buttery soft feel and looks flattering on just about everyone.
Customer review: "Used for bridesmaids the morning of the wedding. Very cute and good value for the price. It includes a belt and has the loops. Washed well and the bridesmaids loved them!"
This bright emerald green robe will instantly add some flair to your pajama collection. The peacock print is so fun and the jewel-tone colors will stand out from a mile away. You can even throw it over jeans and a t-shirt for a casual, daytime look.
Customer review: "It is very cute I will be getting more colors ! Right now I’m 5 months pregnant so it’s really comfortable to sleep in and slip on and just wear that around the house! It is a good length not too long, not too short!!"
