You want stylish nightwear for women that is comfortable as well as beautiful. This can seem like an unattainable holy grail, but we have some great finds for you to take your fashion game to the next level even while you rack up on that beauty rest.

This article is going to review a few categories of sleepwear for women and toss in a few examples to get your imagination going. Then we’ll tell you how to score your nightwear for less.

Comfy and Cute: The Nightshirt

Nightshirts are a great way to stay comfortable and stylish. Not every nightshirt has to be a giant baggy t-shirt with a character on the front. Many women’s clothing designers have elevated their sleepshirt game.

You can have a wild night with the SoulMates Women’s Sexy Satin Sleepwear. The silky material is cool against the skin and the loose fit is great for warm nights. Paired with a black robe, this sleepshirt would make a statement.

Hot Red Satin Sleepwear

The Disney Women’s Jungle Book Nightgown falls somewhere between a nightshirt and a chemise. It’s the color and cute pattern of this option that make it one of a kind. It is so beautiful for all young teens; you might be tempted to wear it out. We advise against it, but at the same time, we are not sure anyone would even know!

Chemises: A-Line in the Bedroom

In the old days of nightgowns, a chemise was pretty much a slip. They were somewhat shapeless and looked best on super slim body types. That isn’t the case anymore! Many of today’s chemises feature an empire waist. If you can score one in cotton, you have a beautiful sleeping outfit that is super comfortable as well.

AliExpress’s ‘Women’s purple satin pajama sleepwear set’ has a very flattering shape. The skirt is a-line and the empire waist will hide any body concerns you may have. If you already are rocking a svelte figure, this type of nightgown will only accentuate it.

Purple Pajama Set

This is also a great style for plus size women. Lane Bryant’s Mesh Inset Chemise has the same flattering shape as the example above but the pattern on the bottom of the nightgown is different and lovely. It’s a little bit sexy and a whole lot comfy.

Full Length Nightgowns

If you ask us, length is a luxury when it comes to nightwear. Taking your sleeping attire below the knee makes it look like a real dress. Then you just have to choose the right pattern and you’re on your way to snoozing in style.

The first example we want to showcase is this women’s Short Sleeve Midcalf Nightgown from Lands’ End. It’s plain, but a lovely solid color that would work great with a colorful robe. It has a nice shape and will hug all of your curves. The longer length should also keep you warm on chilly winter nights.

Talk about luxury! Oscar De La Renta has you covered with some embroidered cotton nightgown. It’s lovely and simple, just how your rest should be. You could also go with a bit of lace and the Lace Nightgown by Carole Hochman. We absolutely adore the style, the creative ruching at the bust, and the color.

A New Sleep Twist: Rompers

Are you loving the new romper trend? Take it to bed then, why don’t you? You’ll be pretty, flirty, and fun in a sleep romper. You already know they’re the epitome of comfort. The floral patterns on most styles take the femininity up to maximum levels.

Old Navy has a few of Printed Sleep Rompers for women to choose from. They have a relaxed fit and hit at mid-thigh. Could the romper be the new perfect summer sleepwear? We say yes! A bonus is you can run out to get the paper in the morning and no one on the street will know you’re still in your pajamas.

Blue Romper

Victoria’s Secret won’t be left out of this sleep romper game. They have an option for the colder fall weather with this Thermal Sleep Romper. There are several patterns to pick from but they’re all a bit hipster chic. There is really something to be said for laid back sexy and this romper nails it.

Save A Lot & Sleep Better

Don’t you always sleep better when you know you’ve gotten a great deal? I know that I do. I feel satisfied and like we’ve just come off of a safari for sales.

There are many discount coupon websites that offers discounts above and beyond the sales you see displayed at many of your favorite retailer sites. In just a few clicks you can pick up a coupon code to use at checkout at stores like Gap, Target, Overstock.com, and Old Navy. It’s so easy, there is no reason not to save a few extra bucks.

You might even save enough to treat yourself to an extra nightgown or two.

Happy shopping and sweet dreams!

News And Leading Trends In Major Baseball League https://www.frugaa.com/news-and-leading-trends-in-major-baseball-league/ https://www.frugaa.com/news-and-leading-trends-in-major-baseball-league/#comments Sat, 23 Jul 2016 10:14:55 +0000 admin https://www.frugaa.com/?p=174968 Continue reading Specifications & Pricing ]]> 2016′s MLB season opened on April 3rd and will run until October 2nd. 30 top-flight teams will play 162 games across the two top leagues, including facing interleague and division opponents at all levels. Players, fans and pundits are seeing the season hot up as we pass the midpoint and the all-star break, and the battle at the top of the table is extremely close right now. The coming weekend’s games look likely to shake things up once more, with many teams still to play before the weekends.

At the time of writing, the Red Sox have a narrow lead over Orioles – but the Blue Jays and Yankees are close behind in third and fourth place respectively. Boston’s appeal as the league favorite also shows in the selection for the World Series. Xander Bogaerts, David Ortiz, Jackie Bradley Jr. and Mookie Betts have all started for the American League – currently reigning supreme in the series with three straight wins.

American League

Meanwhile over in the National League, Nationals are currently storming to victory. Just the Marlins and the Mets look to have any chance of catching up, and there is a gap between each in the table. Despite this weaker competition among the NL teams, National League remains the slight favorite with bookmakers for the next World Series clash – but this could all change during an unpredictable, exciting season.

Rule Changes for the 2016 MLB Season
Along with the Players’ Association, the MLB has updated the rulebook this year. Guidance on what now constitutes a legal slide has been issued, giving infielders more protection in play while allowing aggressive base-running practices to continue. Breaks and mound visits have also been reduced to 30 seconds to speed up play – particularly for televised games where the break now matches a commercial interlude. The new slide rule was brought into use almost as soon as the season opened, against Toronto Blue Jays’ José Bautista for controversial hand to ankle contact on Logan Forsythe.

There is some talk about changing during the 2017 season to a 154-game system, in part to reduce the pressure on players. Traveling the nation for games is tough, leaving players apart from their families and feeling tired before games. Fans and baseball experts say a small reduction in the annual schedule would make a massive difference to players’ abilities and their enthusiasm. For now, the timetable remains the same but perhaps we can expect this change in the future.

Players To Watch out

Players to Watch in 2016
One of the season’s biggest shake-ups so far has come from Madison Bumgarner, the Giants’ pitcher who chose to hit for himself and proved to be skilled in both areas. The unusual decision had social media buzzing, and has opened up discussions for a separate ‘Pitchers’ Derby’. Talks have even begun on entering pitchers to the Home Run Derby in future.

Meanwhile, Josh Donaldson and Anthony Rizzo are the pundits’ top picks for mid-season MVP. The Blue Jay’s baseman is far ahead in opinion polls, six points ahead in a recent panel vote and showing increasing talent out on the field, making it likely he will keep his title. That said, Angels’ Mike Trout and Astros’ Jose Altuve are still running close behind.

The National League’s victor is less certain, with several players vying for attention. While Rizzo is leading favorite right now, Kris Bryant and David Murphy are in close contention as well.

Revelations From the 2016 Draft
With the mid-season draft closing just days ago, we can now take a good look at the season’s fresh wave of young amateurs, boosted to the pro level after a shining summer performance. There are already some very notable signings and trends to consider when looking at the list of names. The most notable trend is how high school pitchers are hot property right now – six young men with pitching skills were among the first 17 picks this season.

First high school pick this year went to the Philadelphia Phillies, who will be welcoming outfielder Mickey Moniak. Moniak was a surprise choice to many, who predicted that top place would go to Riley Pint or Jason Groome. However, seven home runs and a stellar second half season boosted young Moniak’s net worth and attracted the Phillies’ attention. Groome is still a key figure to watch, and he will no doubt attract some fans when he takes his place at AL leaders Boston Red Sox. NL first team Washington Nationals will be keen to see how their highest placed new signings Carter Kieboom and Jesus Luzardo perform over the season.

With half the season remaining and a great World Series to look forward to, 2016 is sure to be another sensational year with lots of action and drama to come. Nothing is set in stone yet and there could still be some major shake-ups for teams at all levels. One thing is certain – fans can expect some superb games between now and October!

Heavy Industries To Benefit From IOT Advances in 2016

Utilities services have long embraced IOT technology, and these year is seeing the hard work of fossil fuel companies pay off. Despite a slow global shift in the direction of sustainable energy, traditional fuels are still necessary. New coal plants in China and India are due to be built in the next year or two, and it is believed IOT integration will make these power sources far safer and more energy-efficient. The industrial sector can take advantages of IOT developments such as IBM’s Maximo asset management platform to cut around 3% of environment-harming emissions.

Marine industries will also get a boost this year from IOT advances. Smart ships are the next big thing on the high seas, across the whole of the leisure and commercial sectors. Making ships safer is a big part of IOT development, with the new Ship Service Software monitoring passengers, equipment and the ship itself through onboard sensors and connected devices. This Smart Ship concept could transform the cruise industry, with IOT services offering everything from robot bartenders and virtual tours to passenger overboard alerts and medical assistance.

Transport Improvements With The IOT Revolution

Rolls-Royce has teamed up Microsoft to use two leading IOT platforms: Azure and Cortana. Using engine sensors, the automotive and aviation specialists will be able to monitor aircraft and vehicle engines for faults, raise alerts in the event of a problem and also provide valuable data on efficiency and fuel use. Automotive industries have already shown innovative use of IOT software, and 2016′s much anticipated driverless car will rely heavily on the IOT network for many functions.

“Having automated cars and public transport vehicles communicate with their users is vital,” said London City transportation executive Michael Norland. “Smartphone integration, safety alerts and navigation are all areas we are can improve on with IOT technology.” Uber is one company catching on to IOT in tech. Their smartphone application is a simple way to summon transport over the internet, make payment from one device, transmit destination information prior to travelling and receive detailed payment and route information – all while receiving alerts that inform you of your car’s progress. This app can connect into other systems – such as the hearing aid mentioned above – to alert users of their ride’s arrival in innovative ways. This is how the Internet Of Things is developing – connecting everyday items to make services we use anyway simpler and fun.

The future of IOT is sure to keep changing, and we can expect plenty more exciting news from around the world in the next year. 2016 is shaping up to be the year when the Internet Of Things really takes off, and we should soon see its effects in all areas of our lives.
