Who here has purchased a lot of loungewear since this pandemic started? I definitely have invested in some really good loungewear. However, in the spirit of being more sustainable, I want to make sure that I can use my loungewear, not just for being at home, but for going out as well. With a little bit of imagination, you can get a lot more uses out of your loungewear, and you don’t have to forget about them or get rid of them once life starts to go back to normal.
Loungewear Video:
Below is a video with some tips on how you can transition your loungewear from staying in to going out.
Below or some ideas and descriptions of what is featured on the video:
Loungewear: Farallon joggers from Athleta, bodysuit from The Gap, and Black Modal Cardigan from Banana Republic. I’ve owned the loungewear clothes for at least a year and longer. Going Out: Add a faux fur vest from Banana Republic, chunky jewelry from J. Crew, Leather Ankle Booties from DSW, and Sunglasses from Salvatore Ferragamo. All the going out clothes I’ve owned for at least 2 -3 years, with the exception of the sunglasses which I bought secondhand from ThredUp.
Loungewear: I don’t sweat a lot when I work out so I tend to wear my workout clothes all day. I’ve owned these clothes for a really long time, so I’m not even sure where they’re from anymore. Going Out: I throw on some sunglasses from Christian Dior I got secondhand, over the knee boots, and a jean jacket.
Loungewear: The lounge dress is one of my favorites. So cozy and comfortable. Going Out: Just throw on a blazer and combat boots.
Loungewear: Another one of my favorites lounge bottoms from Athleta that is made from sustainable materials, and a modal shirt I’ve owned from Banana Republic for a really long time. Going Out: I simply put on an overcoat and animal print booties.
So when things go back to normal, we don’t have to put away or ignore our loungewear, we can extend its life and use it for going out as well.
