Well, it's official, the weather has definitely turned on the West Coast. Courtenay has gone from streaming sun to raging rain. But that's OK. We're tough West-Coasters and we can take it.

Winter brings about our shipments of pajamas. We carry lines of pajamas in silk, flannel, jersey and other materials.

One of our most popular brands for Christmas gift-giving is Bedhead. This year we have pink and grey Eiffel Tower, blue 3-D stripe, snow leopard, blue Abbey Road and fleur de lis prints.

 

As this is the new year we thought we'd take a look back at some of our favorite lingerie, loungewear and, of course, underwear items from 2010. Today we'll reveal numbers 10 - 6.

10.  Bedhead Pajamas - These are a top-of-the-line pajama that wash and wear beautifully a are a long-time favorite of ours. They are a finer cotton flannel than is normally found in pajamas.

Many were snapped up for Christmas, but if you weren't lucky to find a pair under your tree, stop by and try on a pair.

In addition to Moonlight Magic and our offer of free shipping there is even more happening around us on fifth street.

On Vancouver Island we experience a varied climate from crisp and sunny, to mild and wet and even cold and icy atop Mt. Washington. Luckily, whether you play in the snow, or escape the chill in front of a fire, we have winter pieces to keep you feeling cozy.

Thick and Cozy

A perennial favorite is Bedhead pajamas and we have been carrying them for years due to their comfort and universally popular designs. To the right is the Bedhead Jade Vienna design, in cotton, which has just arrived in-store.

For those looking to mix-and-match, Blush pajamas come in colourful, cotton tops and plaid, flannel bottoms, allowing you to create your own unique look.

And of course, look for new lines of robes from Diamond Tea and Bella Notte for the ultimate decadence right out of the shower, or lounging all day long.

If you're heading out into the weather, we recommend looking at Kim Allan Silks, offered in long-sleeved tops as well as long-johns (seen right). Kim Allan Silks not only keep you warm but they offer maximum breathability while wicking moisture away from your skin. Perfect for when you're working up a sweat skiing down the slopes, and when you're waiting for the lift to get back up again.

Nina Von C is another line to check out for those who prefer cotton keeping them warm.

This Winter

Now is the time we layer up, break out the pajamas, unfurl the robes and linger in them all Sunday afternoon. But come in soon to select your style because we warn you, we're not the only ones looking to be pampered this season.

Our summer BedHead pajamas are here in fun, new patterns including sunflowers, peacocks, an Asian theme and even pure white and tan stripes for those seeking a classic look. Their 100% fine cotton sateen fabric is cool enough for warm summer nights but soft enough to make you want to cuddle up with a good book. BedHead pajamas are proudly 100% made in North America.

The budding nature found in spring and summer was the obvious inspiration for many of these new designs, including the green peacock feather set seen to the right. Rich blues and greens work with a multitude of skin types and evoke images of colorful summer fields.
