If your guy is like mine, he looks great in a sweater but he hates the weight.  That’s why this one is so fabulous.  It’s a cotton/cashmere blend (cashmere makes it lightweight and cotton keeps the price down–see, a perfect combination!).  Available in six colors.  Crewneck or V-neck.  From L. L. Bean.  $59.50.

I think JCPenney has some of the best pajamas for women, and they are always reasonably priced.  Better yet, they carry styles in Petite sizes, which is a rare thing to fing.  Stock up now on any of five great, comfy looks for only $21.99.  Available in Petite and Tall also.
