I don't usually go out in "slummin' it" get-up. If I'm walking out the door, I am dressed in minimally decent clothes. That means shoes, jeans, etc. And I went to Art school. I never saw any of my classmates in uni in pyjamas either. Maybe it's just Portugal lol.
I cringe at the thought of being in public in anything pyjama-like. It just wouldn't cross my mind.
I do have phases in my life where I slum it a little, my clothes aren't well thought out, or I didn't make my hair look so nice. Generally I try to make an effort because when I look like shit, I feel like shit.
Generally cleanliness is important and I don't skip that ever.

Whether we write or speak or do but look
We are ever unapparent. What we are
Cannot be transfused into word or book.
Our soul from us is infinitely far.
However much we give our thoughts the will
To be our soul and gesture it abroad,
Our hearts are incommunicable still.
In what we show ourselves we are ignored.
The abyss from soul to soul cannot be bridged
By any skill of thought or trick of seeming.
Unto our very selves we are abridged
When we would utter to our thought our being.
We are our dreams of ourselves, souls by gleams,
And each to each other dreams of others' dreams.
Fernando Pessoa, 1918
