There’s no doubt that lockdown has changed the way we look at workwear.
Comfy loungewear and thick socks have replaced cute blouses and sky-high heels as many of us made the move from the office to working from home.
But navigating the perfect WFH outfit that isn’t just those pyjamas you’ve been rocking for five years can be hard, and it’s important to find a fit that’s both cosy and gets you in a positive mindset for work (something that your food-stained sweater won’t likely achieve).
We’ve rounded up some of the most comfortable yet stylish lockdown loungewear that you can take from bed to table as you work from home – without your boss ever knowing they’re pyjamas.
