Elevated Loungewear: Hip Options for Home

As a personal stylist for women, I’ve had a hybrid work schedule for over 8 years. I’ve spent that time hopping from a client’s home to a retailer to creating online resources for her from my desk at home. Throughout the pandemic, I’ve heard from a number of clients struggling to find the balance of comfort and style while working and often parenting from home and now heading into the office one day a week or a month or maybe never. It’s tricky, but it absolutely can be done. And fortunately for all of us, designers and retailers have doubled down on loungewear so there are more attractive options than ever before. Here are some of my favs.

Elevated Loungewear: There’s no Need to Sacrifice Comfort for Style

1. Try a coordinated set.

If you haven’t been online shopping lately, you may have missed the explosion of coordinated sets. They help you feel put together without sacrificing comfort.

2. Embrace the Soft Jumpsuit

A real favorite of mine while working from home, you can roll out of bed and have your outfit handled without another thought.

3. Go for a hip sweatshirt.

Undoubtedly, you’ve accumulated at least one new sweatshirt during the pandemic. Yes! You can wear them and still feel on point. Just be selective and pair with something equally compelling.

4. Swap out your old sweater for a luxurious option.

Few things feel as good as a luxurious sweater. It’s time invest in that special piece that will last you for years to come.

5. Embrace your feminine side with silk pants.

Silk is better for the environment and feels incredible. Who knew pants could make you feel sophisticated and comfortable at the same time?

6. It’s a nightgown! It’s a dress! It’s a nightgown! It’s a dress!

There’s a whole world of “nap dresses”. out there. Opt for something that is functional for your lifestyle but also makes you feel put together when you toss on your shoes to grab something at the market or pick up your kids.

7. Or try an actual dress.

Yes. Those still exist.

8. Pajamas, Separates or both?

You sure can try any of these pieces out in the world paired with other options. Or just wear them at home. Regardless, remember that you are dressing for yourself first and foremost. You should feel beautiful regardless of where you are or what you are doing. So, if you are at home by yourself and you are still wondering if it’s worth the investment for incredible pajamas. Yes, My Dear Reader. It absolutely is.

9. Don’t forget the caftan

My love for this timeless staple will never day. I especially love these for dinner parties at home when you don’t want to feel too dressed up and you plan to wear your house shoes. Vaccinated friends coming together with other friends need something to look forward to… like time with friends AND a great caftan.
