Unless stated otherwise, all sizes in this post are based on women's measurements.
1. High-rise leggings, because stiff, structured pants just don't fit into your laid-back day plans. Sorry, not sorry.
2. A cozy two-piece lounge set that's absolutely worth your investment — once the weekend hits, you'll want to relax in total comfort. This set definitely delivers on that promise.
3. Sweater pants, because why should your arms and torso get all the comfort??? Give your legs a cozy experience too by wrapping them in these snug wonders.
4. A drawstring jumpsuit, ideal for anyone who wants to relax *most* of the day but also has a few errands to run. When the charming cashier at CVS starts checking *you* out while you're checking out, you can thank me later.
5. An oversized crewneck sweater that's perfect for pairing with leggings during those busy WFH mornings when you want to stay cozy yet still look presentable in case a Zoom call pops up.
6. A cozy three-piece loungewear set that reviewers say is strikingly similar to Skims. (Sorry, Kim K!) It's a great option if you want to try out the look before splurging on the authentic version — or simply add another color to your collection!
7. Richer Poorer recycled sweats, because everyone deserves to own *at least* one pair of outrageously comfortable sweatpants in their wardrobe.
Pair it with this recycled fleece sweatshirt for the full look.
Here's a review from my colleague Emma Lord:
"Before these sweatpants, I had three different pairs that each had one redeeming quality, but none of them were truly great. Once I got these Richer Poorer sweatpants, I immediately got rid of the others because these have everything. I'm talking about incredibly soft fabric inside, and — be still my millennial heart — the coveted POCKETS. I don't typically go out in sweatpants, but when I have to run down to grab a delivery, these make me feel ~sweatpants chic~ (and the deep pockets are a lifesaver for holding my phone, keys, and face masks). I can tell these are going to be a long-time favorite of mine (unless I end up getting them in other colors, in which case they might just compete for the top spot with my other favorites, lolol)."
Get them from Richer Poorer for $76 (available in sizes XS–L and five colors).
8. A sweatshirt and leggings set that you'll keep grabbing for when you've overslept and need to pull yourself together quickly before a virtual morning meeting.
Rebdolls is a woman-owned small business founded by Dominican Republic–born model Grisel Paula.
Get it from Rebdolls for $59.90 (available in sizes S–5X).
9. Colorful leggings with side pockets (!!!) where you can keep your phone — so when you *finally* get comfy on the couch to work, you won't be left wondering, "where's my phone?" and then begrudgingly getting up to search for it.
10. An oversized pullover V-neck sweater made from a cozy waffle knit that you'll never want to take off — it's just as stylish paired with leggings at home as it is with your favorite pair of jeans.
11. Stretchy joggers that are perfect for wearing both inside and outside — crafted from a naturally cooling and moisture-wicking fabric, making them an ideal addition to your summer loungewear wardrobe.
Promising review: "These pants are incredibly soft and comfortable. I want them in every color!" —Lisa C.
Get them from our Goodful shop for $45.50 (originally $65; available in women's sizes XS–L and six colors).
12. Cushioned crew socks that'll tempt you to kick back, prop your feet up, pour yourself some wine, and unwind after a long work week.
13. A crewneck that perfectly captures your mood — a skeleton sipping on coffee. It's just as relatable as it is cozy!
14. A pair of plush slippers to shield your feet from the chilly tiled floors in your house, all while allowing you to flaunt your fresh pedicure.
15. A rib knit top paired with knit leggings so cozy, you’ll start to question whether you’ll ever want to wear anything else again.
Promising review (for the top): "Incredibly soft and comfy, and fits true to size! I love that I can wear it as a lounge top or pair it with jeans for a stylish summer-to-fall transition. I’m around a 40DDD/F and ordered an XXL. Love it!" —Anonymous
Get them from Old Navy: tank for $11.50 (available in sizes XS–2XL, 2X–4X, and three colors), pants for $17.49 (available in sizes XS–2XL, 2X–4X, and three colors).
16. A tonal pullover perfect for those who appreciate a chic black-on-black aesthetic and a subtle nod to their daily grind, filled with caffeine and chaos.
River Babe Threads is a Michigan-based, woman-owned small business offering handmade items and unique designs. After having my baby, my sister and I picked up matching "caffeine and chaos" sweatshirts and, fittingly, a shirt for my little one that says "I'm the chaos." The sweatshirt is super soft and comfy, and it feels a bit more fashionable than many of my other pullovers. I’ve been wearing it all winter, and I’ll likely continue throughout the year.
Get it from River Babe Threads for $20 (available in unisex sizes S–3XL).
17. A two-piece set, so you can effortlessly look polished without the stress of matching your outfit. You’re welcome.
18. A cropped sweater tank and shorts set that exudes pure coziness, as if it were the visual definition of the word itself. You can even complete the ensemble with a matching cardigan!
Promising reviews: "Super cute and comfy! The material is thicker than some other sets. The top is a bit short, but the bottoms are high-cut and flexible, creating a great fit!" —C. Larson
"This sweater set is perfect! I love that the top and cardigan can be worn separately or together, making it incredibly versatile. Both pieces washed well and feel so soft and comfortable. I would definitely buy it in another color. Also, I sized up in the knit tank to make it less like a bra top, and it turned out to be the perfect crop!" —Nicole Thibou
Get the set from Amazon: $34.90+ (for the tank; available in sizes 2XS–2XL, 2X–3X, and five colors) and $39.90+ (for the shorts; available in sizes 2XS–2XL, 2X–3X, and four colors).

19. An oversized Disney Villain's tee to bring a touch of magic to your work-from-home look — just in time for the spooky season!
I made the mistake of ordering this *way* too oversized last year (I ended up giving it to my father-in-law because it was THAT big), but it was so soft I couldn't stop thinking about it. This year, I re-ordered it in a medium, and now it fits perfectly! I even convinced one of my coworkers to buy it for a quick Disneyland trip. It's an excellent loungewear option that pairs perfectly with bike shorts, leggings, or jeans.
Promising review: "If you’re a die-hard Disney fan, this shirt is a must-have. Disney villain shirts are hard to come by, and this one is amazing. Packed with so many villains and vibrant colors. It’s so soft, I wear it all the time." —MCmom
Get it from Target for $14 (available in men's sizes S–2XL).
20. High-waisted leggings from Aerie's Offline collection — my holy grail, wear-them-every-day, absolute favorite pair of leggings. They're stretchy, soft, and perfect for both working out or lounging. I simply adore them.
In my first year of working from home, I set a personal goal to find the ULTIMATE black leggings. The greatest leggings of all time. And after trying countless pairs, Aerie's leggings are the ones that reign supreme! I own multiple pairs of black leggings and love that they come in short lengths! It’s truly a game changer for me! I even wore them throughout my pregnancy (I just sized up), and they stretched right along with me. These leggings are the most affordable ones I’ve tried and absolutely loved — I can't recommend them enough.
Get them from Aerie for $31.46 (available in sizes 2XS–2XL, regular, long, and short lengths, and five colors).

I own this top in gray, and it's amazing! It's light enough to keep you cool if you're on the move, yet cozy enough to make you feel snug. I wore it all last winter and can't wait to pull it out again for fall. It's definitely a must-have addition to your loungewear collection.
Promising review: "This is my all-time favorite top from Aerie, and I'm thrilled they brought it back! It runs large, though. I'm usually a large, but I sized down to a medium, and it's still roomy. This top is an essential in my wardrobe." —Jenni

Promising review: "These are incredibly comfortable! So light and high-quality. They are super soft and stretchy, basically like wearing nothing!
