Celebrities are redefining how they dress for special occasions, especially when celebrating at home. It’s no longer about glamming up to the nines for the best pictures.  Instead, taking candid shots in loungewear has become quite the trend. From celebrating birthday parties to ringing in the New Year, celebrities are keeping it chill and fun.

Sonam Kapoor’s Christmas celebrations last year at home saw her husband, Anand Ahuja, and son, Vayu, wearing matching blue pyjama sets, while she opted for a red one. What made the sets special was the personal touch – each had their initials embroidered on the shirt pocket.

Kareena Kapoor Khan joined the trend, too, posing in an animal-printed pyjama set for mother-in-law Sharmila Tagore’s 80th birthday. Even the legendary actress sported a check robe over her printed pink nightwear, her hair still in rollers. It made for the coolest picture on the gram.
