How to create outfits to wear at home that still make us feel “dressed” and stylish, but also comfortable and relaxed?
In these difficult and complicated days, but also inevitably lazy and a little slower at home, it may come naturally to stay in pajamas or wear a simple gym suit all day. And sometimes, let’s face it, that’s perfectly okay.
But in the long run, avoiding dressing, combing our hair and even wearing makeup for days risks making us feel increasingly tired and sad.
Moreover, even in these days of quarantine it happens to put one foot out of the house, both to do really essential errands or more simply to take a breath of fresh air in front of the house.
How to create outfits to wear at home, then, that are absolutely practical and relaxed, but also cute and trendy, because it’s still spring and we want to look pretty?
In my outfit today, I gave priority above all:
- to the shoes – a pair of new white sneakers by Steve Madden, very similar to these, which I ordered about a month ago, still unaware of how valuable they would be these days…
- to the materials, all soft and comfortable, from faux leather skinny jeans to the hoodie, soft and comfortable
A look that, with a short, black coat and my Chanel Jumbo as a contrast piece, makes me quickly ready to go out if necessary.
All the materials chosen for this look are comfortable and soft, giving you maximum freedom of movement when you stay at home.
In addition, nothing I wear wrinkles: ideal for switching from cocooning just a few steps away on the terrace or the inevitable shopping.
I added a pair of statement earrings a bit flashy and bright, just to give some light to this otherwise almost total black outfit.
In these days of forced cloistering, I started working, in general, on the creation of a small domestic “capsule wardrobe“: I selected a dozen pieces particularly suitable for creating outfits to wear at home, but also combinable with each other, and I concentrated them in one area of the wardrobe.
Doing so, I always have some simple outfits to wear at home available, to be enriched with some accessories.
This creative “game”, by the way, has taken away any desire to do compulsive shopping in view of the spring and summer, which at this point can wait a little longer, given the quarantine (but sooner or later we’ll come out and go wild with our spring/summer outfits, right girls?).
WHAT I’M WEARING:
Skinny jeans in black faux leather, HERE or similar HERE
Hoodie, Nike, old, wide choice HERE
Sneakers, Steve Madden, modelli molto simili alle mie QUI (take the extra size, they dress small!)
Bag, Chanel Jumbo, new in every Chanel boutique. Better and less expensive: buy it preloved!
As mentioned before, the already high prices for the Chanel 2.55 handbag are constantly rising and already appallingly high. However, it is possible to find excellent alternatives in the preloved luxury handbags market.
In addition to the “physical” luxury vintage shops, present in many cities, I absolutely recommend Vestiaire Collective , world-renowned luxury vintage online store with an enormous range of Chanel handbags.
+ Save even more thanks to this Vestiaire Collective Discount Code for 2020: NOTIMEFORSTYLE20. You save 15 euro/dollars every 120 you spend!
Earrings, Satellite Paris, gifted, similar HERE
A shoulder bag adds a touch of definition to the slightly shapeless sweatshirt and creates a contrast to the otherwise very sporty look…
