Need really soft warm slouchy home from work clothes

13 replies

Starbear · 21/01/2010 21:59

Wondered if any one has any suggestions for slouchy but stylish cosy top and bottom to change into when you are home from work really late. I'm size 14 with a big bum & a tum. So want some thing to disguise it even from myself looking in the mirror. If I'm home early I change into jeans & a top. But... I just want to relax this late.... but not put my nighty on yet...{smile]

Jersey pjs? The ones that look like a t-shirt and yoga trousers?

Nice things here or the white company is good for 'lounge wear'.

i love Abercrombie and Fitch hoodies - the material is sooo soft and warm. there are lots on ebay but watch out for fakes. the sizing is quite small (i'm an A&F 'medium' even though i'm a small size 10 on top). Bit £££ but worth it. i have two and wear one or the other every night.
Soft tracksuit bottoms are quite hard to find. i bought some A&F ones and they are really comfy but they make me feel a bit fat because of the way they are cut so you prob wouldn't like them. how about Sweaty Betty yoga stuff?

traceybath lovely but I need to try it on. Love the top. Might risk buying that and finding the rest some where else. Going to the white company site now

Sweaty Betty is a good idea as we have a shop in town and I can try it on.
Loved the look of Hush ordered the catalogue but a company that doesn't have size 16 probably only sells small size 12 and not a real 14 Also the prices are a bit steep for me. ME&EM pricy but maybe worth it if I could try it on before buying I don't really do well ordering on-line Do you think that a shop might stock that stuff?
You are on the right lines

I have been tempted by these although rest of stuff on site is a bit frumpy these are nice

Ps the sizes are true to size not teeny

jersey sweat pants look good. Thank you for the tip re teeny. I now have to look in my purse stop, buying lattes & get a piggy bank to save for them

Starbear - I have quite a few things from Hush and I would say their sizes are generous. Everything fits without being "fitted" or too tight, iyswim. I can definitely look as good in them on my "fat" days as I can on my more positive days!

Bamboo jersey is really soft and BAM have a sale at the moment. Sizing is good. I usually buy 14 or 16. I didn't like their vests though, something about the shape wasn't quite right.
