If you go for the "no clothes in bed" option they're essential for any form of moving about the house between undressing and dressing again. [The postman would otherwise be a bit bothered, that's for sure!]
On a cold winter evening a hot bath and then slobbing on the sofa with the fire going can't be beaten. Similarly between getting up and showering/getting dressed [I tend to rise quite early and don't shower until the rest of the household is up, lest I wake them].

So "yes" to both of your options.
