Pajama Mum:
A UK mum who is seen out in public wearing nightwear — pajamas, dressing gowns, onesies, or slippers — often late at night at places like Tesco or the local corner shop, or even while driving around in nightwear. This can also happen when picking up the kids from school, leading to reactions from the school headmaster and letters sent home asking them to dress in casual clothes instead.
It often reflects a laid-back attitude toward dressing appropriately. It just appeared in the last decade out of nowhere. It’s a mix of laziness and an “I don't give a care” attitude. It’s looked down on by members of the public, shop workers, and other people in the UK, and is a bit of a joke.
In rare cases, they could be photographed or filmed and posted on social media — how times have changed. Wearing PJs sometimes is okay, but it can look slummy, untidy, and off-putting seeing a full-grown woman who can’t be bothered to put on a pair of jeans and a T-shirt.

Lee: I was picking the kids up from school the other day… bruv, there were about a dozen mums outside the school gates in full-on PJs, dressing gowns, onesies — the lot. I’m thinking, was there some kind of pajama party charity event or something, Frank?
Frank: Nah, Lee, it’s just a bunch of Pajama Mums, innit? They’re on benefits and can’t be arsed to get dressed before stepping out in public, mate, LOL.
Lee: Shut up, Frank. You’re winding me up. They haven’t even got a real job! No one cares anymore. This country’s gone to the dogs. I blame social media and smartphones. I'm glad my Mrs is not a Pajama Mum, LOL.
