In case you missed it, Oprah’s Favorite Things were announced earlier this week, aka, the best-of-the-best wellness products she personally approves of for gifting and otherwise. Unsurprisingly, we want everything on the 2023 list (this happens every year, tbh.) But what we’re really drooling over are her favorite sweatpants—the Softies Solid Marshmallow Reverse Seam Loungewear Set—which retail for a cool $139. Youch.
Luckily, you don’t have to sacrifice your entire wallet to enjoy a cozy new set of PJs this year. The Koolaburra by Ugg Double Needle Rib Wide Leg Lounge Set ($56) is the softest, coziest dupe for Oprah’s favorite “marshmallow” sweats, and best of all, is almost a third of the price. *Adds to cart.*
Since nice sweatpants can be a serious splurge, we’re so excited about this dupe. For starters, it’s perfect for everything from reading on your couch to decorating for the holidays—the subtle ribbed knit is made of a polyester-Spandex blend, so it’s got a bit of stretch without being overly baggy or billowy. The fabric is soft and cozy, but not heavy, so it’s still comfortable to sleep in without waking up feeling way too hot.
Another reason to love this set is the ease of care. No one wants to have intense laundry instructions for something that should be relaxing, like luxurious pajamas. The Koolaburra lounge set is machine-washable, and can also be dried in your dryer stress-free. That way, if you get some hot chocolate on it while you’re catching up on Bravo (it happens!) or dribble some toothpaste down the top while you’re brushing your teeth, you can pop it in the wash and know it’ll come out looking good as new. So long, dry-cleaning bill.
Of course, there’s its reasonable price tag, too. Many of Ugg’s other pajama sets are more expensive, with average price tags ranging from $88 to $120. Luckily, the Koolaburra lounge set dupe is just $56, meaning you could theoretically buy two sets and *still* be under the price of the Softies alternative. And they’re so cute, you might want to buy two pairs. The Koolaburra by UGG Lounge Set currently comes in five pretty colors: the dark gray Blackened Pearl, a creamy Cashmere Taupe, Indigo, a dusty Midnight Rose, and earthy Sagebrush Green. We also love that the pajamas are pretty size inclusive with sizes ranging from XS-3XL, so you can find your comfiest, coziest fit.
Of course, if you do want to splurge, this pick from Oprah’s Favorite Things does make a lovely gift, especially for your mom or close friends. But if you’re looking for something that’s snuggly *and* won’t break the bank, you can’t go wrong with this Ugg by Koolaburra Lounge Set. With the most gorgeous color options, lots of sizes, and a reasonable price tag, it makes a perfect present to add to your cart this holiday season. One for you, one for someone special—everyone gets to be cozy in the chillier winter months ahead.
