Sarah is an over 40 gal with a passion for Goodnighties jammies!
It is so nice to see product out there that meets our over 40 needs,especially those going through menopause! We’re finding all kinds of hot flash fashions!
We recently got to chat with a fan of a new product called Goodnighties, Sarah Baldwin. What a great re-invention story she has! Sarah was having problems with night sweats and came across Goodnights nightwear in desperation of some comfort. She loved the product so much she called the owners and offered to work for them!
They are now partners and she is marketing a product she is passionate about! Moreover, a dear friend of hers tried them because she has Fibromyalgia and found the fabric helped her sleep better at night!
These p.j.'s are made with special moisture wicking fabric to keep you cool!
So what is the secret? Well, these p.j.’s have been designed with IonX technology, the same used in daywear for professional athletes, NASA apparel and even leg wraps for race horses! This product was created to stimulate blood flow to promote healing. The moisture-wicking fabric is an added benefit!
But do they work? We tried them and found them so soft and they certainly did keep us comfortable and cool~
Finally "real" models! YEAH!!!!
Sarah has offered a special discount specially for you!!!
Just enter fabover40 for a 20% (you will get free shipping, too) We found that they ran small, so order a size bigger than you think you are.
(We really like that they use real women as models and are totally Made in the U.S.A.)
We girls all talk fashion all the time, but when it comes to what we are wearing in the privacy of our own bedrooms, well it is certainly not something we usually compare notes on!
With record heat and if you are prone to a hot flash or two, what to wear to bed this summer, is a big question!
Last week I went outlet shopping with a friend and of course there are always rows and rows of nightgowns, p.j’s and of course the sexy nighties…
Aaah, these are much better!!
I feel like a Granny in these stiff cotton print P.J's~
Just for fun I tried on a really dreadful pair of pajamas.
Tips for finding a new sleeping outfit:
1) Touch the fabric first, if it is soft and comfortable that is good!
2) Try finding styles with a low v-neckline, these are usually most flattering!
3)Stay away from crazy patterns, they will be too stimulating! At night you want to put on something that is soothing~
4)Make sure to try them on. I usually go a size larger, so that they are comfortable!
One of favorite brands are Cosabella, however they can be on the pricey side.
Here is a pair that are fun:
Cosabella is a wonderful brand, very comfortable and a better choice than ugly flannels!
If you are feeling dumpy in your night time jammies… run out and try to find a pair that you will be comfy and feel a little sexy in too! (JoJami at the Neiman Marcus Last Call outlet, in Limerick, PA)

We love it when you ask us questions, so here are two sides of the coin about nighttime dressing that we received recently from two of our readers:
Dear Glams,
My husband is trying to save money and is keeping the house on the cool side this winter. At night I am putting on lots of layers over my flannel pajamas and feel like the Micheline man. Do you have any suggestions?
L.R., Pennsylvania
Dear L.R.,
Being cold is hard because you do have to layer. But if you are going to layer, do it in style!
* Go for a color theme in your bedtime wardrobe, so it will at least look coherent. (slippers, robe, and p.j.’s should all coordinate!)
* Underneath the robe, try something other than just pants and a t-shirt, like matching flannels.
* If you have a solid robe, go with print p.j.’s and if you have a print robe, go with p.j.’s that are solid
* We love Pine Cone Hill cozy warm robes. They are by far one of the most soft and cozy robes out there! and they come in tons of pretty colors for you to choose from.
Designer sleepwear is warm and elegant!

HI Glam Gals,
I am over 40, and am wanting some new lounge wear, but want something that
is supportive, and pretty. I live in a hot climate and need something cool.
Is there a store that sells pretty nighties with a lacy top with a built in
under wire?
thank you!
C.W., Florida
Dear C.W.,
We have a few suggestion for you. Sounds like you want to look sexy, but might need a little support. We have a nice video about a great line of ladies lingerie called Yummy Tummies. I don’t think they have an under wire, but they are very supportive especially around the tummy! They are very sexy and can be worn as P.J’s or every day wear.
Buxum's silk knot chemise
Also, if you are busty, there is a line of ladies nighties, called Buxom Inc. These lovely nighties give those with ample vavoom, the room they need!
One more note - for a fabulous selection of p.j.s go to www.herroom.com! Sweet dreams!
When is the last time you updated your nightie?
We know its hard to find something to wear to bed at night that is age appropriate, and sexy… so here are a few of our favorites!
