I think most of us have been wearing only comfy clothes lately since we are staying home. It is still cold here, but I know that I will need some new clothes to wear at home when it starts to get warmer. So, I need some pants that can transition as well as lighter weight shirts and short sleeves. What are your favorites? Would prefer them to be inexpensive so that I don't feel bad if something gets stained, and for budget reasons. But, I am open to all suggestions.
I am currently loving some Buffalo jeans shirts that I got at Costco in the fall. I bought all three colors and they are great. Perfect comfy yet not sloppy fit and great weight. I also have some shirts from Athleta that I love, but found a similar style at Sam's Club last fall that is almost exactly the same as one of the ones from Athleta (but of course it was $15 instead of $80). For pants, I have some fleece joggers from AE and Old Navy that I wear, but hopefully they will be too warm to wear for long. I also wear my Duluth Trading Company slim fit pants quite a bit. I want things that I can wear at home and not feel TOO sloppy, especially if we end up going out for a walk or a bike ride. I'm short so finding pants can be a challenge.
So, what are your favorite clothes to wear right now? What will you be wearing in the spring/summer?

Same as always: scrubs, leggings, or pajamas. Jeans rarely.
As for tshirts I need to go through and get rid of some I never wear. I only like fitted women's cut thin material t-shirts. I hate men's cut or too-thick material. I have so many, they don't really wear out.

Leggings or pajama pants with sweatshirts, mostly. I have whipped out the running shorts on the few nice days we’ve had.

Usually a pair of my micro fleece pajama pants and a matching sweatshirt over a solid tee shirt. If I’m going anywhere, usually staying in the car, I put on nylon exercise pants.

100% athletic wear - yoga pants, work shirt shirt or tank top, and a bike dri fit pull over. I workout a couple times a day plus work from home and it comfy, plus walk the dogs so the attire works all day. I don’t see anyone except dh so I don’t care about being cute but my workout stuff is nice (mostly athleta). I live in Seattle area so summer isn’t until after the 4th of July so still this ensemble most of the time. For warmer days, I’ll switch to Capri yoga pants and tank tops and lose the pull over and socks and wear flip flops.  |

We still have snow so I'm still in cold weather wear ... I'm a teacher working from home ... I wear Lululemon leggings with AE t-shirts and sweatshirts ... also have a Vans sweatshirt that I love  I have no idea what I'll wear when it finally warms up ... who knows when that will be  |

It's been over 90 deg here for the last week, I've been living in shorts and bathing suits. Tomorrow we leave for the great frozen north, and I'm looking forward to my skinny jeans and Ugg boots. That will last for a week until it becomes mud season, and then I'll wear bogs and work pants. I'm trying to avoid the stretchy pants.  |

I wear plenty of leggings and t-shirts, but there are some days when I throw on a pair of jeans and a cute tee. I have a bit of a striped tee problem, so yesterday I wore a blue and white striped tee and white, ankle length jeans. I actually don’t find jeans uncomfortable, and I like to make sure they all still fit since I’ve also developed a bit of a Kraft Mac and Cheese problem.
Once it gets really hot here, I’ll transition to my summer uniform of denim shorts (love the ones I have from Loft and Old Navy) and a tee or tank top.

I really can’t stand wearing yoga pants, leggings, or sweatpants during the day. I like wearing jeans so I don’t feel sloppy. If I’m wearing fitted jeans, I don’t mind a big sweatshirt or teeshirt. I have a fabulous pair of baggy sweatpants, but I have to wear a smaller sized tee with them for the same reason.
However, I actually do yoga and I can do it anytime during the day now when I want to take a break, so I dress in yoga clothes in the morning and have ended up in them until evening sometimes. Then I’ll usually just run in them too and not put on regular clothes until late. Just one more way I live in upside down world right now. I need to flip it around again because I don’t like the feeling.

Almost entirely athletic wear. I have no excuse not to exercise if I'm attired for it all day long. 😂
I do put on real pants once a week, though, just to be safe.

Since I am retired I wear leggings and pullover type shirts with some canvas slip on sketchers. That is what I have been wearing since fall. when it is much warmer outside I will switch to capris, short sleeve pullover shirts and slip on sandals.
For Easter I put on a dress I had purchased since I think it was the only time I could see wearing it.

It's pretty much been yoga pants, a cute top, and lightweight walking shoes every day. I'm in and out the door a lot with a young puppy so this way, I'm ready to go. I take him for several walks a day as well to wear him out a little!

Pajamas...I know I should get dressed at least in yoga pants or leggings, but I haven't been.

Yoga pants, leggings, tees and a sweater. I have 2 "house" sweaters that I alternate between. It got warm, then cold again. It's about 40 now so I'm hoping I'll transition from long sleeves and sweater into just long sleeves or 3/4 sleeves. I try on my jeans once a week, but I haven't even put those on when I've left the house. I only run in to the pharmacy, so why bother. LOL
Once warmer weather hits, I'll switch to my capri yoga pants and leggings and athletic shorts.

I feel undressed and sloth-like if I stay in "workout" gear all day. I gladly get dressed with jeans and a t-shirt, including shoes, every day. Just to note -- I normally wear jeans and cotton t-shirts everyday, even before SIP. |

My clothing hasn't changed ~ jeans, tops, sweaters, etc. With the weather getting warmer it will be capris and tops.

A ball gown.  All of my pants are stretchy pants, because I cannot wear anything fitted. So, I wear my regular pants or capris w/a t-shirt. |

Because winter lasts forever in Connecticut, I'm still wearing my winter walking wear--fleece leggings, wicking turtleneck under wool tunic sweater, wool socks and hiking boots. Some days I change into my transitional clothes--the ones that I put on when I get out of bed because I sleep naked. Some days I'll change into my Old Navy cottony leggings that I was talking about on the legging thread and one of a myriad of tunic tops.

PJs (pjs for me is pj bottoms or thin sweats and tee shirts) for a good part of the morning then my “dressier” 😂 part of the day is leggings and tunic sweater or long tee for the rest of the day. I fear the day I try to put my jeans on. Lol. Even when I do go to work I have some pretty cozy dress pants that won’t scream too much if I’ve gain a few pounds 😆🤞🏼

My work-from-home desk is in front of a large picture window, and it is rather chilly, at least in the morning. So I am in a jeans and t-shirt with my Comfy until I get warmed up. So glad for my Christmas Comfy!

I workout first thing in the morning, then shower and dress in something besides exercise attire  I wear a lot of dresses in the spring and summer; it's been nice here this week, so I've been wearing dresses most days. |

When you say yoga pants, do you mean leggings? Or what kind of fit do they have? Yes, leggings would really be a more apt name. As I posted on the thread asking for recommendations on leggings, I really like the 90-Degree Reflex leggings in the high waisted styles. They stay UP - no tugging. And the fit is snug (not tight) with no bagginess anywhere. I wear the medium size. |

So glad for my Christmas Comfy! it's chilly outside today and my home office is the coldest room in the house. I'm in yoga tights, a long sleeve tee, Uggs, and my Comfy since I don't have any video calls scheduled. It's supposed to start warming back up tomorrow though so I'll go back to wearing a top with shorts. |

Embracing the inner sloth! Sweatpants or board shorts and tee shirts. Neck up for all Zoom meetings.

It's been anywhere from the 60s to the 80s here recently. I'm mostly in workout clothes. Occasionally a nicer shirt with yoga pants so I at least look put together for work video conferences. haha
Last week I threw on a pair of joggers and realized how much more comfortable they are for all day wear than my high waist compression workout tights! I tend to get lazy and not change after morning workouts. It honestly just depends on my meeting/call schedules as to when I can shower if I don't get up early enough to get all of it done before work starts.

"Athleisure" - I walk on the treadmill from 9 to 10, so I put on workout clothes and then shower and then something else comfy.

I wear a lot of dresses in the spring and summer; it's been nice here this week, so I've been wearing dresses most days.
