This post was originally published in December 2019. It has been updated to reflect the best and most festive Christmas pajamas of the season.

My husband and I love purchasing festive Christmas pajamas for the holiday season. Now I’m sharing my favorites with you!
It started a few years ago when I got us a few matching sets, and it became a tradition to wear them every Christmas Eve and Day! Several years into married life, and I’m still getting us cute pjs, even if they don’t match perfectly. It’s fun to have something cheesy to wear together during the holidays and beyond.
I’ve noticed that matching pajama sets have become increasingly popular for families over the past few years. We may not have children – and there’s no way our cat would wear clothes – but we love to snuggle up in some plaid flannels or cozy sweats by our decorated tree on Christmas Eve while we watch festive movies and drink spiced mocha. I decided it was well past time for me to share my favorite Christmas pajamas with all of you! Whether you’re single, taken, have a whole family, or even a pet, you’ll find festive Christmas pajamas that catch your eye!

Some of my favorite retailers for Christmas pajamas are Old Navy, Target, Kohl’s, and Macy’s.
I’m dividing these up by retailer to make it a little easier to shop and sort through which pieces match if you’re hoping to get something for your significant other as well. There are also a few “solo” items in there – and of course, if a pajama set stands out to you, get it whether or not you have someone to match. I often wear my cute, festive Christmas pajamas all year long!
Old Navy
Here are some of my favorites from Old Navy. I love that they offer really quality pieces at an affordable price, and have so many matching options!
Target
Of course, Target always has great pajamas! I got my husband a pair with Maruchan products on it a few years back, and he’s worn them thin! They’re awesome.
Kohl’s
I only recently discovered what a fabulous selection of holiday pjs Kohl’s offers when I went there to shop with my sister. Even better, when I looked online, most of them were marked down! Grab them while they’re on sale!
Macy’s
You really can’t go wrong when it comes to department stores. They always have great picks for the whole family. Macy’s in particular usually releases super high-quality pajamas for Christmas!

They really are. I’m a sucker for festive pjs this time of year. It’s a bit of a tradition for us now.
Rach says
We love getting Christmas PJs too!! You pretty much shop at the same places as we do. So. many great options. This year, my entire immediate family decided we should all have matching pjs from Target!

I love that everyone decided to do them together. That’s so much fun! I’m sure you’ll have photos? I can’t wait to see!
Sarah says
So many awesome looking Christmas pajamas. This is something I have been thinking about doing for a few years now and still haven’t gotten around to buying any. I think this will be the year to do it. I love the options at Kohls and American Eagle as neither my husband or I enjoy shirts with collars.
Stephanie Whitman says
Oooh well I’m glad I included a few options that work for you then. I hope you get a chance to grab some for yourselves!
Kim says
Christmas Pajamas are my favorite! You can never have too many pairs I feel like. I got my family matching ones from Old Navy!
xoxo,
Kim
Stephanie Whitman says
I agree with that! I know I have countless pairs in my closet (and truthfully, I wear them year-round).
Rachel says
Christmas pajamas are my favorite, too! I love getting a new pair every year and can’t wait to go get ones for this year!! Now to convince Chris to join in on the fun….

I bet you can convince him – just get him some that are cheesy/festive. I got B some with Ramen on them a few years back that he loved!
Tara Fuller says
The thought of your cat wearing christmas pj’s totally made my day! The reaction would be priceless!
Stephanie Whitman says
HAHA it is quite the hilarious mental image, isn’t it? I don’t think her chubby self would even fit in pajamas!
Neely says
I got tons for all of us from old navy this year! So many great ones!
Stephanie Whitman says
That’s so fun! They really do have some fantastic options! I can’t wait to see them all.
Hillary Conheady says
Ok now THIS is my kind of post! Love the ones you featured, especially the Target pairs! About to get my shop on!
Stephanie Whitman says
Hehe I’m glad you enjoyed it 🙂 I hope you have fun shopping for your festive pajamas!
Lovely says
Your Pj’s looks wonderful! I loved the ones from AE.

American Eagle/Aerie really offers some of the best pajamas and cozy clothing in general. I love the options this season!
Anika says
Great picks! I love anything with a tartan print during the winter, always so cosy 🤗

Stephanie Whitman says
Oooh yes! It’s such a classic print for Christmastime, that’s for sure.
Em says
so many cute PJ options! We love doing matching family PJs!
Stephanie Whitman says
It’s really fun to cozy up in those matching pajamas on Christmas morning while opening presents.
Raji says
These pajamas look so nice and I like the ones from Old Navy! I just picked up a few Christmassy ones myself and I love how warm and comfy they are!
Stephanie Whitman says
Great minds think alike, it seems! 😉 I love that you got some fun ones for yourself!
Jupiter Hadley says
The ones from Kohl’s are so cute! This is such a lovely tradition.
Stephanie Whitman says
Kohl’s really surprises me with their cute pajamas each year. They’re totally underrated!
Marlene says
These are so cute and comfy! I love getting Christmas PJs, it’s so festive.
Stephanie Whitman says
It really is! It’s one of the most festive things we do together. One of these days I really am gonna find some that fit my chonky kitty haha!
Jackie says
I love this and could never get my cat to wear anything either. How do people do that?! haha My daughters have the family jammies from Kohl’s and they are mega soft! For our family pic though, I went with some from Etsy, although I wish I had gotten the entire Kohls set instead. Next year!
Stephanie Whitman says
I have no clue, honestly! My cat is VERY fat and would never fit in them, but I’ve seen other people do that and I think it’s adorable. I’m glad you got the ones from Kohl’s. I feel like that’s such an underrated spot to shop! But Etsy is amazing too because that supports smaller businesses!
rebecca says
I always love when you guys wear matching pjs! SO cute! i think you have convinced me that I need a new pair this year!

Stephanie Whitman says
You totally do! They’re just so fun and festive. I have way too many pairs for my own good – but really, how many is too many when it comes to pajamas?
Carrington | Chaos and Coffee says
These are all so cute! I want to buy some more Christmas pj’s this year. I have some from the past but it’s about time for some new ones! Xx.
Stephanie Whitman says
There’s certainly nothing wrong with a bit of an upgrade!
Lee says
Such a great round-up, I love festive pajamas from Old Navy, i get them every year!
Amanda says
You two are the cutest in your PJs! My husband would never… well, maybe I could if I bought him the new Xbox, haha!
Adaleta Avdic says
The matching situation (half matching) is so cute. I am obsessed with that. I wonder what I’d have to do to get Aaron to do this with me!
Merry Sari says
I’m gonna buy this later 😀 Not only for Christmas but I’m going to wear it every day. I love Christmas! Thank you for the recommendation 😀
Deborah says
So cute! My husband will do all the cutesy things with me EXCEPT buy matching Christmas pajamas! I’m seriously considering buying matching ones anyway and then hiding all of his other PJs so he’d have no choice but to match with me! Haha!
Cara Duncan says
Yes!!! Matching jammies are so fun! We got ours from Target last year and Old Navy this year. They both have such great selections with even better prices.
Sarah Lennon says
Love these cute pajamas!! Matching is the best!
Jennifer says
You two are so cute!! Cozy pjs are such a must – we got ours from Old Navy this year. I can’t wait to wear them!
Carolyn says
You found a lot of cute options! The buffalo plaid is probably my favorite just because they are so classic. My son and I match with pajamas-now I’m just trying to get my husband in on it too! I think it’s such a fun tradition. My sisters and I match for our family Christmas as well- it’s been about 5 years of doing that now! It’s a great thing to do for the holidays!
Caitlin says
We buy matching family Christmas pajamas every year – sometimes more than just one pair – and I never thought to look at American Eagle! I don’t know how I missed their collection but it’s so cute! I really love being able to have a collection built on years passed of Christmas pjs.
Anna English says
Target’s PJ collection is on point this year! I have picked up so many fun pieces.
Greta says
I just got some PJ’s for my husband and I at Target. So cute and comfy!

Hacketthillfarm says
We love Christmas PJs! Target and Kohls are our usual go to places for cute comfy jammies
Katie says
I think my favorite is the pair you two are wearing! Those are adorable!
Simona says
You two look absolutely delightful and cute in the pjs you picked! We have a little cape for our cat, he seems to enjoy it…or at the very least he’s not scratched any of us yet so we might end up matching him this year ha!
Molly Transatlantic Notes says
My husband and I do matching pajamas at Christmas and it’s just so fun to do that and have it as a tradition! I love the selection you’ve shared here — they’re so cute!
Jennifer Prince says
Ooh! I need to head to Macy’s. I really need to get a quality pair this year. So fun! I actually need to make time to do this ASAP!

I don’t think we have any of these stores in the UK but I do love Christmas pajamas. I don’t actually own any at the moment, so that will have to change!
Megan Elliott says
These are so cute! I seem to always find my favorite matching PJs at Old Navy, but Target is always a great option too.
