Lounge with style

August 28th, 2006

We need to wear clothes for all aspects of our life and that includes lounging around at home. While some of us might think that wearing an old size XXL varsity sweatshirt with pyjama pants is acceptable – we can do better then that. Invest in at least one set of comfy and currently styled sweats that you can climb into when you feel like relaxing at home. They are available at inexpensive stores like the Gap, old Navy or Target for under $70 (or even $50-$60 if you watch the sales). My sweats double up as a robe for my lifestyle. I get into them first thing in the morning and before I go to bed instead of putting a robe over my sleepwear.

I have found my trendy sweats to be an indispensable part of my wardrobe because I use them every day. Do yourself a favour and update the clothes that you lounge around at home in. It will kick your style quotient up a notch, and save you some embarrassment when someone unexpectedly turns up on your doorstep.

[...] If you can lounge in style, you can certainly work from home with style. Whilst staying in your PJ’s or wearing funky sweats might be all that you can manage from time to time – it’s not a good daily habit. Dashing off to take a meeting, run an errand or to see a friend for tea in the middle of your work–at-home-day cannot be done in sweats. [...]

[...] Remember that when we lounge at home – we lounge in style and in comfort. The same holds true for our feet. These days many people have a “no shoes” rule indoors, but walking around in socks can be hard on the feet. Fabulous slippers are an excellent solution. [...]

[...] I will not settle for anything that’s drab, ill-fitting and badly made (remember ladies that we lounge with style). While fab yoga and athletic gear will also work, they’re not my choice for superb stay-at-home [...]

[...] at night instead of a robe. I love, love, love cute and comfy loungewear and it’s important that I feel as good in my sweats as I do in daily outfits. I therefore take considerable care in selecting this part of my wardrobe so that I’m not caught [...]
