EDITOR'S NOTE

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Valentine’s Day season is the best time to buy new pajamas. It’s winter, so you’re living in them, plus getting a new set is like a little act of self-love. Some limited-edition picks sitting in my cart include:

• Hanna Andersson’s sets for those with sensitive skin.

• These ribbed pants from Skims in an adorable conversation heart print.

• A classic set from PJ Salvage. I have a pair from years ago that are still going strong.

While you're at it, check out our extensive collection of Valentine’s Day gift guides here.
