It’s almost the weekend! After five days of business, whether it’s in an office or managing a house, we deserve some down time to relax in our most comfortable clothes. Sporting our favorite pajamas all weekend is one option but I’m guessing we might get funny looks from our neighbors or the clerks at the grocery store when we venture outside the house. A better option is some of my new favorite loungewear. Soft, draping basics done up with a lot more style, these new loungewear essentials can easily go from enjoying the first cup of coffee in the morning to running errands and meeting friends and family for lunch. Try slipping into some of these more cozy styles!
1. Chameleon Camisoles
Is it laundry day and you’re scrambling for a top that’s flattering and casual? The fitted camisole by Rhonda Shear is ready to help. This camisole is made of a stretch, nylon fit so it will resist wrinkling or losing its shape so you can look crisp and be comfortable at the same time. Having a basic in white will be a life saver for layering, and this coral color is especially pretty for spring. Dress it up with your favorite jewelry and this look is done in a snap.
2. Sleek Drawstrings
Maybe you have plans to go out or maybe you’d rather stay in? These drawstring pants by Wendy Williams can swing with you either way. The comfort of sweatpants just met its more fashionable relative with these embellished pull on pants. It’s the little details like the slant zippered pockets, drawstring ankles, and woven stretch fit that make these fits such a game changer. Pair them with chic shooties for a polished look or kick back with comfortable sliders like these sandals by easy spirit.
3. Easy-to-Style Shrugs
Even here in Florida with our sultry temperatures and high humidity, sometimes we all catch a chill and just want to snuggle up with a cozy shrug. This 3/4-sleeve wrap is perfect for a lightweight cover up that adds a little extra style with its waterfall draping front. For a slightly more fitted wrap, this ribbed knit cardigan is one of our new favorites. The pop of cobalt blue is enough to wake up any loungewear look and the cardigan’s knit design keeps it looking fresh for all weekend wear.
4. In Control Leggings
Our week may have been unpredictable but this weekend we’re in control of the plans. The seamless shaping leggings will give us that extra boost of support with their high-waist design for tummy control and smooth curves. Pair these leggings with a peasant top or your favorite tank and you’ll be free to let go of any worries about unexpected angles.
5. Grab and Go Accessories
You’re almost out the door but not too fast! Give your loungewear outfit its finishing touch with a stylish and bright bag. The Quilted Crossbody Bag by Sharif comes in a variety of great spring colors and is the perfect size for conveniently carrying all your essentials. It can also make a lovely mother’s day gift!
How do you enjoy taking it easy on the weekend?
