Catalog Sunday: The Final MnM lounge wear edition

As I wrap up this year's MnM, I decided to go out with a bang of lounge wear from Sears, 1942/43.
Enjoy!

  1. I should not get as giddy as I do about pajamas and lounge wear!! Especially since I am sitting here in a hooded sweatshirt and an ex boyfriend's boxers!

  2. Loungewear is the unsung awesome of vintage wear, because you can't really show it off at a party, but it's amazing enough tone worn to a party.

  3. I like that a lot of this was practical, rather than just all bias cut satin nightgowns.
