A Seattle woman’s weekend plans to enjoy a relaxing brunch at Sabine Café with a friend visiting from Paris were dashed today by repeated accusations that she was publicly dining in pajamas.
“Leggings and a sweater are minimalist, body-positive loungewear, not pajamas,” said the accused, Becca Thomas. “And, for your information, what I walked over here in and put on the coat rack is not a robe, it’s a terry-cloth duster.”
Thomas’ friend, who she met through a French immersion program in college, reportedly wasn’t having it.
“Those are definitely just pajamas with shoes,” said Esme Robert. “Because if they’re not, that would mean you really woke up and deliberately put on clothes that look like pajamas, which is honestly even more weird.”
When Esme left for her flight back home later that afternoon, she texted Thomas that someone stole her designer purse on the way to the airport.
“Well,” said Thomas as she swung an artisan, hand-crafted, burlap purse over her shoulder. “Who’s laughing now?”
