Living in Your Nap Dress: 12 Everyday Looks to Rock this Trend

Despite their centuries-long history, nap dresses captured the American imagination a few years ago when the fashion received an at-home makeover. It wasn't long before everyone had an opinion on this polarizing style popularized by Hill House. (For the record, we're firmly on the "what's not to love?" side of the nap dress POV spectrum.) Love them or hate them, it's not hard to see why nap dresses have become a wardrobe staple across the country. They're incredibly comfortable to wear and easy to travel with, but when it comes to finding ways to wear a sleep dress or a fresh nap dress outfit idea, things get a little trickier.

Add quiet luxury accessories

Nap dresses are comfortable and casual, but can be elevated to a fancy and comfortable level with the right accessories. This doesn't mean you need red-soled heels or a closet full of designer bags to pull off a quietly luxurious moment. A pair of well-made sandals and a matching handbag create an equally upscale effect.

With statement sneakers

For a look that doubles the cool-girl energy without sacrificing comfort, slip on a sleep dress, grab your snazziest designer bag, and grab a pair of statement sneakers. Don't worry about color matching with this look; Each element contributes its own unique effect.

Add stripes

Add vibrancy to a simple nap dress fit by choosing a single accessory in a contrasting color. A pastel sleep dress with a striped bag exudes cool-girl vibes with almost no effort. To take things further, add a pair of shoes that match your purse.
