Skinny jeans, sharp tailoring, and rigid fabrics seem incredibly unappealing upon our imminent return to work. Comfortable clothing had an undeniable moment over the last two years, and as we get dressed for the office we find ourselves longing to return to our loungewear.
Fear not, there's no need to compromise on comfort when purveying your work closets. With the right styling tips and tricks, even our most leisurely loungewear can be made office appropriate. Below, we've gathered our favourite loungewear pieces to buy now.
Logomania is having a moment in the current Y2K revival, so why not elevate your casual ensemble of wide-legged denim and white sneakers with a logo clad sweatshirt? Pair with a crisp white suit jacket and brighten up the over all outfit to give this Sunday casual a Monday make-over.

Or take a cue from Swedish super model Elsa Hosk above and wear your pair with a cropped blazer.
A t-shirt mini dress is arguably toeing the line of what we define as loungewear. We have, however, on multiple occasions found ourselves lounging around in nothing but an oversized t-shirt. In neutral black, this mini dress is the perfect base for most office outfits whether worn over jeans for an early 'aughts throwback or with tights.
A grey hoodie is the basic of basics. It is the perfect layering piece under pinstriped suit jacket worn with matching tourers for a relaxed office look, or thrown atop a mini skirt for an elevated day-to-night ensemble.

Tekla's poppy pink night shirt doubles as a shirt dress. Wether dressed down – worn with fuzzy slippers – or up with sharp tailoring and a pair of statement heels, this roomy silhouettes leaves us lacking nothing in terms of comfort.
Track suit bottoms arr key in our loungewear closets. This specific category has seen an upswing in popularity over the pandemic, with tracksuits taken more seriously than every before. Pair with a minimalistic top and scrappy heels, and you'd be perfectly dressed for after work drinks.
Knit trousers are taken to a new sartorial level in a wide legged silhouette and an oat meal colour way. We're looking to pair this pair with a mix of materials, from silk shirts to leather trench coats.
