Sleepgoddess Elasticated Vegan Silk Slip-over Pillowcase
Ask any beauty insider and they’ll rave about the skin and hair benefits of a silk pillowcase. What they won’t rave about, however, is how they always seem to slither off the actual pillow. Sleepgoddess’s genius slip-on vegan silk and satin styles have an elasticated back that makes it simple to pull over your pillow, with a secure fit that prevents them from sliding off.
Created with breathability in mind, the friction-free fabric will help your hair to thrive by reducing loss of moisture, eliminating frizz and preventing bedhead, while also being gentle on skin – and who doesn’t want that?

Le Colonel Liberty cotton pyjama shorts
When you think of chic floral prints, there’s no doubt Liberty’s iconic designs spring to mind. Dresses, bags, pillowcases, you name it – swathe it in a Liberty print and the appeal automatically quadruples.

Handmade in Le Colonel’s Lille studio, naturally the French touch adds elegance to the classic pyjama short silhouette with a soft silk bow and micro side slit without compromising on comfort thanks to the elasticated waist.

Their Nibs ladies traditional cotton pyjama set
We don’t care what Miranda Priestly said – florals for spring may not be groundbreaking but that doesn’t mean wearing the sartorial version of a flower meadow to bed won’t cheer us up. So it makes sense that British sleepwear label Their Nibs has brought some plant power to this 100% cotton pyjama set.
Inspired by sprawling wild flowers, we love the contrasting white trim, the comfortable elasticated waist tie and the even more comfortable pockets (because let’s face it, all clothing is better with pockets).
