What to Wear When Working From Home

Not Sure What to Wear When Working From Home? We've Got You Covered

We're all adjusting to our new normal of working from home, and as we stay put inside and practice social distancing, there's one important question we have; what exactly am I supposed to wear? I will not lie to you; I am currently writing this in one of my beloved matching pajama sets, but I'm not thrilled about it. One of the most helpful things I've found in this new landscape is actually changing out of my pajamas. I recognise that it's not perfect, and some days (like today), it doesn't happen. But, when I get dressed, I feel more like myself, and right now, I'll take all the comfort and security I can get.

But, when changing out of pajamas, what exactly should I be changing in to? Well, we're fans of clothes you can wash, because sending sweaters out for dry cleaning is not the move right now. Plus, for whatever reason, my house is freezing, so I'm big on cute sweatshirts and sweatpants. T-shirts and leggings are also awesome right now. Pair them with a face mask and some slippers, and we're dressed for the day.

(Editor's note: After writing this post, I decided I couldn't just talk the talk, and changed into some Outdoor Voices leggings and a grey t-shirt. I feel better already.)
