How to Stay in Your Loungewear All Day and Still Feel Chic

If all you want to do right now is roll yourself up lengthways in a duvet and just lie there in a cosy cocoon, rest assured the Who What Wear team feels the same. But getting dressed can also be important for your mood and general well-being when you're spending significant amounts of time at home, but that's not to say you have to put on anything fancy.

Far from the grotty grey trackies and old sweatshirts from the loungewear days of yore, there are now plenty of chicer items to consider. As such, we've hunted down some of the sleekest and comfiest pieces that will make you feel stylish while keeping you snug. Keep scrolling to see the women inspiring us to join the movement.

If in doubt, throw on a comfy knitted dress in a neutral shade a la Loïcka Grâce.

If you're looking for low-effort polish, a pair of leggings and a white shirt will do the job nicely.

Linen isn't just for summer. Make like Tanice and wear a linen shorts co-ord with warm slippers.

If, like Ellie, wearing heels with your loungewear makes you feel better, just do it.

Playing dress-up? Just add massive gold earrings. It worked for Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, after all.
