On Nov. 30, Google's official blog released the most-searched holiday gift items of the season. Though it will shock the fashion world to its very core, the No. 1 most-searched fashion gift item was revealed to be "adult onesies". They're the new "ugly Christmas sweaters," said the official blog. They're perfect for laying around on Christmas Day, as well as any other day of the year.
Though calling them "fashionable" is definitely a stretch, adult onesies have grown in popularity significantly over the course of the past several years. Starting with Jumpin Jammerz in the early 2000s, the adult onesie began to show up all over the media and in pop culture.
In 2011, Ryan Gosling gave Jumpin Jammerz to all of Ellen Degeneres's audience - see the video below (skip to 2:05 for the onesie magic).
Since then, society has slowly but surely accepted onesies as a legitimate option for an around-the-house garment. The Snuggie came around soon after, which gaines enormous popularity and can be seen as a close relative of the onesie. There's even a cheesy infomercial adult onesie called The Forever Lazy, that has a bathroom-access buttflap. Very attractive.
Whether you get a Jumpin Jammer, a Forever Lazy, or any of the thousands of onesies available on Amazon, you will be hooked by the extreme comfort and convenience. They come in every color, theme, shape, and size, so find one you like and open your fashion-forward heart to onesies.
