I do not. But, I’m on video on Teams (we don’t Zoom) 80% of my day. At first I sort of tried tracking my outfits so it wouldn’t look like I wore the same thing everyday. But, that fell to the wayside quickly and I wear whatever.

As long as I have a bra, a little lip gloss and good lighting all is well with working from home.

No. But I def have a favorite chair where the light hits my face with no shadows and I never wear sold black on top when I’m doing zoom.

No. But the first time I zoomed I made damn sure to check the camera angle before connecting to the office meeting.  Actually, if I know there's going to be a zoom meeting (and my office has had precisely three of them) I will put on a slightly nicer top because the real comfort comes from yoga pants, and no one can see those. |

It depends. For regular zoom meetings, mostly on a tee shirt only framed from the lower neck up so you can't really see the shirt. For important meetings I wear a shirt with a collar, same angle. Rarely wear a bra, never makeup, full frame angle, use decent lighting and am careful. Always in either board shorts or sweat pants.

I’m on zoom calls 4-7 hours/day. I dress as I typically would to go to the office, on top, and pair my shirt/blouse/sweater with comfortable pants and indoor sandals/shoes. Our office is very PNW casual anyway so my office attire isn’t fancy, but I do still change my top when I finish working each day into something more comfortable.

If I ever did video interviews for jobs, though, I totally had a top I liked to wear — a camel colored J.Crew cashmere sweater. Looks nice and modern without being too formal. |

No. Thank goodness school is over. I always moved the laptop so you could only see my son.

My company uses Teams instead of Zoom. Same/same though. We always have the video turned off because otherwise it slows everything down so much. So yay! I don't have to worry what I look like. Hence the active wear, un-styled hair and no make up every day. I was having terrible trouble with my internet connection yesterday. I was supposed to be chairing a meeting with my team, and I kept dropping out. At one point I must have uttered an expletive, because today one of my colleagues messaged me to say "Oh by the way, we all heard your little 'fuck it' comment yesterday when you were losing connection!"  |

Haha AussieMeg! Yes I have a couple of pretty knits that I alternate between before church. Waist-down I'm in joggers or shorts but who cares? I've also discovered that my glasses that I only wear for computers and reading are great at disguising no eye makeup. I sit in front of a window and the glasses reflect the light, so I only need a bit of lipstick. So glad it's not only me! |

No. We use Teams and I’ve only used audio and screen sharing so far.

I have had up to 15 zoom meetings a week, now it is 3-4 usually. We use Teams for quick, small group meetings. My director has also facetimed me a couple times. I can be called anytime for a "in person" meeting so I am always camera ready, on top that is. I dress mostly like I would if I was going to office on top, with comfy pants, shorts or leggings on the bottom. Today I have on a jersey dress, that is basically a really long t-shirt. Put a necklace on to dress it up a little and I am good to go.

I’m on 5-6 Zoom meetings a day and we have a camera-on culture (that predates Covid), so I dress and do my hair and makeup normally. All of my work clothes are Zoom clothes.

We were in Teams last week and someone was picking their nose for a good three minutes. Then someone else said "noooo" and started laughing, they stopped. Thought I was going to lose it, had to turn off my camera and step away. |

Sort of. Our office is super casual even in the office. So working from home, we've had a few people wearing pajamas. I don't wear a bra at home so I do throw a hoodie over my tshirt before Zoom meetings to be more appropriate on camera. Usually I run upstairs and throw on a little concealer, mascara and lipstick too. But lately I haven't even always done that.

We use Teams, and always have cameras on. I don't interact with external clients. I am strictly athleisure attire as is everyone else.
I'm in minimal makeup and my hair ranges from down and styled, to ponytail, topknot, to under a baseball cap. I seriously do not care anymore.

You have always been a part of the heist. You're only mad now because you don't like your cut.

I usually wear blouses that I would only wear to work anyway. When I meet with other attorneys and sometimes my boss I wear a blazer too.

Just did 2 weeks training for a job I hated and had to be on camera the she 8 hours. Yeah, neck up still in PJs after day 1.
One of the young ones a couple days looked like only wearing a t-shirt no shorts even, she would stand up a few times a day to stretch.
Hated the job. Starting another in a few weeks same thing camera for training in WebEx so we shall see.

We went live with Teams just before the pandemic closed everything down. Don’t know why we’re using zoom at work now. 🤔

I just made sure I didn't have a beer t-shirt on. I have a lot of beer t-shirts.
I never wear a bra so that is a non-issue.
I did start wearing lipstick when I was on Meet. I included myself on the grid view because I was curious what others saw and I saw that I really needed some makeup. The habit has stuck. I didn't go anywhere or see anybody today but I still put on lipstick.

Nope. It's called a t-shirt and no bra. They can't see that part of me.  I always get comments on my wall though. They love it and ask where I am sitting. |
