In the day time, he'll wear his pajamas with sneakers, a blazer and luxury timepiece. For evening, he'll hit the red carpet in the same pajamas and blazer but with slip on dress shoes and an overcoat. He embodies and defines the literal meaning of "rolled out of bed."
Naturally it's easy for him to make this look work with panache since he's wealthy, successful and fortunate enough to never have to deal with the MTA bus, subway or rail.
That's why, when I grow up relatively soon, or about 6 months until the Valentino spring 2015 men's collection (pictured up top) hits the stores, I will try to channel my inner Schnabel to capture that elegant bed head look.

Hugh Hefner is the forefather to Julien's look and it has been updated for the modern man who has to take a subway to work. And I'm quite happy about it and look forward to looking like a working playboy on the N,R, Q trains.

Pajama jeans do not count as luxury lounge wear. So put down the phone and don't place that order even if the second pair comes for free.
MAYBE
You strongly believe that pajamas belong only in the bedroom and not on the red carpet, the Metropolitan Opera House or the office. I respect that, but don't judge me when you see me at Whole Foods.
