Look, I write about clothes and stuff on the internet, so I clearly love fashion and do my best to look cute and presentable when I’m out and about, and yet…I’m also the kind of girl who takes her bra off the moment she gets home. I have way more oversized sweaters than you’d think a girl would need, and yet I wear them all regularly…when I’m lounging around at home.

I don’t think I’m alone in this. Just look at some of the hottest trends of the last couple years – athleisure, athluxe, normcore, sneakers, etc. The fashion industry realizes that for many modern women, function is just as important as form, and the fashion world’s renewed focus on comfortable and wearable clothing has blurred the lines between the looks we present to world and the looks we wear for ourselves.

That being said, the influx of loungewear-inspired trends in the last couple of seasons means there are a lot more options for lazy day wear, from sassy statement sweaters and tees to fashion-y printed joggers and leggings, that don’t compromise comfort. So why wouldn’t you want to upgrade? Throw away your ex’s ripped sweatpants and give some of these killer looks a try.

If you live in yoga leggings and oversized sweaters on your off days (hey girl), try swapping out your fave yoga leggings for a fashionable and forgiving pair of high-waisted skinny jeans and a fun statement sweater. These swaps will give your look a similar, cozy-cute silhouette while providing a touch more polish. If you can’t let go of your yoga leggings (I’m not going to lie and say jeans are just as comfortable) try a pair of paneled or contrasting textured leggings instead.
