Stumbled across this article today and literally lol'ed: https://www.newyorker.com/humor/daily-shouts/fashionable-outfits-for-working-from-home
I am the sweaty optimist 100%. In fact, I am in full yoga gear right now, as I'm typing this 😂

If I’m being honest, it’s usually a T-shirt and a pair of comfy joggers. I notice a HUGE difference when I actually put on something that I’d actually wear to an office like jeans and a nicer shirt (not a T-shirt). I need to do that more often but it’s so tempting to wear comfy clothes when you’re working from home!
Honestly half my wardrobe is joggers since I started working at a remote-friendly/casual company. And being a football player/crossfitter only further validates me lol
I wear work clothes when I work from home. As a freelancer, it's too easy to get pulled away from the work day by home life. I need the rituals like wearing work clothes to stay in the I am at work state of mind
I love this one! I also like to have a dedicated office in my home that is separate from my bedroom. This helps me stay in the zone.
Yeah, dedicated space is good. My home office is also the den/guest-bedroom, but it's set up to be very distraction-less.
I love these outfits :D
I usually wear comfy home clothes, but not a bathrobe or pajamas ✨
Love it!
I treasure the days I work from home precisely because my brain somehow works on 300% when I am allowed to wear pajama-like clothes :-D
I used to totally just wear sweatpants - I had two pairs of sweatpants and I'd alternate them, with whatever random t-shirt I have. When it wasn't sweatpants, it was workout leggings which I still wear super super often.
Recently I found a nice pair of pants from Uniqlo that feel comfier than sweatpants but actually look nice - so if I get a bug up my butt and want to run out for coffee, I can just go. No time wasted in changing or angsting over "should I go out in my pajamas?" Hah. Now I have two of those, and two pairs of shorts from the same material. (Might I note that all of these have ~ * ~ POCKETS ~ * ~!!!!)
I wear slightly nicer shirts now - I bought a few merino wool shirts and holy comfort and temperature regulating, Batman!
(Oh yeah: and slippers)
Ooh do you know the name of the Uniqlo pants? That sounds wonderful
I sure do and I'm here with a handy link as well!

There are different prints on different listings, and they also have a jogger style. I have a pair of the joggers but don't like them nearly as much as the straight, wide-leg openings.
These are the shorts: uniqlo.com/us/en/women-provence-pr...
Awesome! Ordering a pair Friday
tbh this is what I was imagining when I came into this thread
the sweatpants, or the successful end to the years-long sweatpants search? hah
The former, but the latter works too!
Lol, the Half Caro is risky when it comes to remote meetings. You never know when you might absent-mindedly stand up.
For me, it's gotta be W-neck shirt, and shorts that are just a bit too long to be fashionable.
😂
I'm always on attack mode 😂 but is just because my face is all angry when I'm focused. The comfy clothes are awesome but putting some "serious" clothes when working always makes me feel prepared for a surprise meeting with my dream job recruiter 🤞
Athleisure all day, everyday :)
Happen to be working from home today. So the outfit is "sleepy pants", an old id software
Raget-shirt and a 2600 sweatshirt.Depends on my day.
If I feel like I'm having a rough go of it, I'll doll myself up with a collared shirt, moustache wax, beard balm, and blow dryer so I at least feel good while I'm putting out fires.
If I know I'm going into the zone to work on a project, then a hoodie&&(sweats||basketball shorts) work just fine. Throw in some headphones and some music and I'll forget what year it is, nevermind what I'm wearing.
Sometimes in winter I will don a blanket and scarf if the heater just isn't cutting it.
And of course the sleeping pups I "wear" on my feet are a must for any situation.
Last night's boxers and tee shirt. Add sweats if it's chilly. Add shorts (short pants, you Brits, not more underwear) and shoes before walking the dog. Shower if going someplace where smells may be inappropriate. Ditto for shave.
