Many of us are spending more time at home these days, so having a closet full of comfy clothes is more important than ever.
Comfy Clothes Can Be Stylish Too!
While lounging in pajamas all day is an option, you might want to feel a bit more put together. But don’t worry, you don’t need to break out the underwired bra or wear anything uncomfortable. You can stay cozy while looking stylish and polished, be it for working from home, watching Netflix, or reading a good book. I’ve teamed up with Nordstrom to bring you a comfy clothing collection that will keep you warm through winter and beyond.
What to Include in Your Comfy Clothing Capsule Closet
If you feel like your wardrobe lacks comfortable, casual clothes suitable for your stay-at-home lifestyle, here are some tips on what to look for when choosing home wear.
Soft Fabrics
Comfort is key, so opt for fabrics that feel good on your skin and don’t restrict movement. Think cozy knitwear, jersey, modal, bamboo, and lycra.
Trendy Touches
Comfy clothes can still be fashionable. Look for trendy prints, colors, asymmetry, and draping.
Elasticated or Tie Waistbands
When relaxing at home, avoid button closures or anything tight around the waist. Opt for tie or elastic waistbands instead.
Comfy Underwear
There’s no point in wearing comfortable outerwear if your underwear is uncomfortable. Full-coverage panties and bralettes may be more comfortable than thongs or underwired bras.
A Comfy Clothes Capsule Wardrobe
Here are some tops, bottoms, and accessories you might want to include in a comfy capsule wardrobe for the coming months.
Comfy Tops
Choose relaxed t-shirts and cozy sweaters for colder weather. Draping or wrap tops can elevate your style.
Examples: Zella washed pleated t-shirt, Chelsea28 tuck front top, Halogen cashmere sweater, BP. drawstring cowl neck sweater.
Outerwear
If you need to leave the house, consider a wrap coat, moto jacket, or long cardigan. A blazer can instantly smarten up your casual look.
Examples: Halogen plaid blazer, Treasure & Bond leather biker jacket, Halogen wool & cashmere long cardigan, Treasure & Bond belted blanket wrap coat.
Comfy Jeans and Pants
For home relaxation, choose stretch leggings or tie-waist pants. Utility pants or jeans with a non-digging waistband are also good options.
Examples: Caslon chino pants, Zella leggings, Zella tie-waist pants, Nordstrom Lingerie lounge pants.
Comfy Dresses and Skirts
Don’t discount dresses, skirts, or jumpsuits for casual days. Stretchy options like sweater dresses are more comfortable than fitted ones.
Examples: Chelsea28 tie waist jumpsuit, Caslon hooded knit tank top, Halogen sweater dress, Halogen sweater skirt.
Comfy Shoes
If your feet get cold or need support, opt for slippers. Sneakers or ankle boots are great for when you step outside.
Examples: Caslon lace-up bootie, Treasure & Bond studded bootie, BP. plush bedroom slipper, Caslon wedge sneaker.
Comfy Accessories
A scarf can keep you warm and cozy. When heading out, a tote or crossbody bag is useful, and a hat can retain warmth on cold days. Add earrings if you don’t feel fully dressed without accessories.
Examples: Nordstrom leather tote, Nordstrom nylon crossbody bag, Halogen cashmere infinity scarf, Nordstrom print wool & cashmere wrap scarf, Nordstrom animal print cashmere scarf, Halogen pom cashmere beanie, Halogen huggie hoop earrings, Nordstrom set of 2 stud earrings, BP. gradient cat eye sunglasses.
What to Wear Underneath Your Comfy Outfits
To stay warm, consider sports bras or bralettes and layer with a camisole, vest, or bodysuit.
Examples: Zella sports bra, BP. stretch camisole, Nordstrom layer tank, Leith deep V-neck bodysuit.
