The model Shir Elmaleh uploaded a photo to her Instagram, wearing a light blue set and made us get confused for a moment and think she was wearing pajamas.

At a second look, we discovered all the details that make this set an outfit that you can totally adopt outside the home.

Let's start with the cut: the length of the shirt and the ending in the sleeves indicate a top with an interesting cut.

The creases with the tie on the pants and the deep slit on the sides of the legs make it clear that these are not pajamas, and the combination with the black spiked heels totally boosts the total look.

We have to say that we liked the type of fabric and the colors less, which detract a bit from the look, but we still liked the set.

So how do you wear a fashionable set that doesn't look like pajamas or a sports suit?

All the highlights are in front of you.

Let's start with the definition of a set - it is about two items, top and bottom, of the same fabric, the color and if there is a print, it should also be the same.

Cuts

To stay away from a pajama or sports suit look, we recommend staying away from the cuts that are associated with them - basic cuts, straight-cut sweatpants with elastic at the end, straight-cut t-shirts, with short or long sleeves.

All of these are outside.

We are looking for sets in more sophisticated cuts.

A set of midriff pants combined with a corset-style top can produce an interesting combination between two urban items, not reminiscent of pajamas in any way.

A set of very wide pants, combined with a tie belt from the same fabric, and a matching button-down shirt, creates a super fashionable and advanced total look, suitable for fashionistas.

Also a set of pants with a wide cut, in combination with a trendy vest, both in a plaid print, will suit the office.

Those who want a more elegant look can add a white button-down shirt.

prints

Pajamas will usually come in calm colors like white, pink and light blue, and with small prints of flowers or hearts.

In order not to fall into this style, we recommend choosing striking and flashy prints, which come from the street worlds.

A set of wide pants, combined with a t-shirt with a collar and a front button, in a green and white print creates a look of striking and fashionable overalls.

A set of a mini skirt and shirt with a v-neckline and flared sleeves, in an abstract print in purple, black and white colors, looks great both in terms of cut and print.

A set of a mini skirt combined with a button-down shirt, both of which are made of hard twill fabric with a military camouflage print, takes us away from the worlds of sweatpants and takes us to a total look with a bold touch.

A poem 

Each set has its own combination.

For pajamas - slippers, for a sports suit - sneakers, and for another set - we will choose fashionable shoes and accessories that will leave no room for doubt, and we will match them to the location you are going to - a party, work or spending time in a cafe.

A set of tailored pants, combined with a belt and a t-shirt with a collar and zipper, creates an elegant and meticulous total look, with the belt completely making the set pop.

A royal blue knit set, which includes flared pants and an oversized top, will work great with a pair of glittery silver pointed-toe heels.

The result is a total casual look with a touch of glam.

Another set that can get a homey look without the right accessories, is a beige knitted set.

White boots will give it the urban touch that makes it legitimate for going outside the house.
