While ‘loungewear’ is the latest fashion buzz word (comfy options listed in this post), sometimes we need a little something more to switch into ‘work mode’. Read on for your next dose of Iso Inspo: Work From Home Outfit Edit.
For 8 years I worked in a casual and laid back office. And by casual I mean some colleagues wore activewear, and tracksuit pants more often than not.
For me, however, dressing for the office means a shift of mindset.
The morning routine of putting together an outfit and applying simple makeup is all part of getting my ‘game face’ (pun intended) on for whatever the day may bring.
As we settle in to this new normal of WFH it’s not all BAU! I’m definitely craving comfy every day buuuuut somedays just calls for a little more polish for client-facing and video meetings.
If you’re feeling the same I’ve rounded up some WFH outfit options which are yes, comfy, but polished and versatile. They’ll keep you sorted during and post #iso ;).
JUMPSUIT
Roomy, 2 in 1 deal so there’s no need to mix and match. Throw on a sneaker to pop to the shops.
THE INSPO:
THE OPTIONS:

COMFY BOTTOMS
These picks have elastic waistbands and roomy legs for maximum comfort (aka they feel like PJ’s!) but are definitely ‘post iso life’ candidates as well!

Team with simple tees and knits.
Team with: Uniqlo Extra Fine Merino Knit. My favourite winter basic! Super warm yet thin enough to tuck easily into pants/midi skirts. (I wear the size S).
KNIT DRESS
Stretchy and versatile. Add a denim jacket, long coat, boots (ankle or knee-high), sneakers. The list goes on for wearing these post iso!

POLISHED TOPS
Add a pop of interest with texture, colour and fun necklines. Oh, and this is a ‘business up top, party on the bottom’ situation! Team with comfy leggings or loungewear bottoms.

Hope that give you a little bit of inspo for the work week ahead! And let me know if you like the new format od ‘The Inspo/The Options’. I thought it was a good way to show a finished look but, as always, open to suggestions.
Happy hunting!
