PJs with pants
YOU love to feel safe and you are probably a bit risk averse.
Maybe you have had a few knock-backs in your relationships, so you want to go back to that childlike feeling of security.
If you like to sleep in underwear you are probably seeking a sense of security[/caption]
You are not overtly flirty and may need time in a relationship to come out of your shell.
But once you get a sense of security, you will let that guard down and reveal a completely different, sexy side of yourself.

…with no pants
GOING knicker-free underneath makes pyjamas a bit more sexy – otherwise you are signalling a clear ‘no’ to your partner.
You and your other half are probably both on the same page when it comes to how you see your relationship.
Those who sleep without pants tend to be confident and optimistic[/caption]
You are likely to be a bit more free and less concerned about what has happened in your past.
You are confident, optimistic and have a good sense of humour.

Old T-shirt
THIS is a surprisingly sexy choice for bed – it’s the sort of thing you put on to get taken off by a partner.
A T-shirt is a lot more provocative than it seems – even more so than the racy outfits you can buy in Ann Summers.

This choice shows you are in control in the bedroom and you like it that way.
You might even be a little demanding. You avoid all the frills and get down to business.

Silk nightgown
A SOPHISTICATED choice, this sensuous nightwear actively sets out to flirt and seduce.
You might be wearing this outfit at the beginning of a relationship or to reboot love that has gone off the boil.

Either way, it’s an intentional gesture, putting effort into your romance.
You probably put a lot of importance on your partner seducing you – candlelit dinners are on your agenda.

Sleeping in the nude
NAPPING naked shows you have a high level of confidence and trust.
It’s not as sexualised as people think – it’s not even particularly flirty as you’re not putting on an outfit to entice or titillate somebody.
