Are you still buying clothes? Where are you looking?

I need some comfy house clothes for now, with a view to being able to wear them outside casually once we are out of lockdown.
Where can I look?
I've looked at Hush ( some nice bits but on the expensive side) Boden ( too dressy/fitted for now) Tu ( nothing nice at all).
I'm thinking longish, looseish tops/short dresses to wear with leggings/yoga pants. Am apple shape so need something stomach covering.
Has anyone got ideas for other online shops? I really like browsing for clothes, but I've exhausted all the outlets I can think of.

I'm apple shape too and find seasalt and white stuff good for dresses and tunics.

BAM is very nice (all natural bamboo derived material). Very nice for yoga and Pilates stuff, hoodies and fitted t shirts. Only just discovered them when a friend got a gift voucher and raves about how nice all the stuff is

For comfortable clothes in natural fabrics (synthetic not always all that comfortable) I’d recommend Thought www.wearethought.com/?gclid=EAIaIQobChMIxJ_IhKOO6QIVAuDtCh2uwgttEAAYASAAEgJGT_D_BwE

And

Wrap London

I found a lovely half price sweatshirt in BAM, it's beautifully soft and not too thick.
I like Wrap/Poetry etc styles, but not their colours. Thought looks as if it would things I like in due course, but nothing I want there at the moment. They do use very nice prints.
Seasalt and White Stuff are just a bit too Cornwall for a Londoner like me, I'd wear their clothes if I was near a beach, but their prints can be a bit too jolly. I do check them out from time to time and DH loves WS shirts!

I'm currently wearing Saint & Sofia Camden trousers and I love them. I own 2 pairs and think the quality is good for the money. I haven't tried anything else from them but I would recommend the Camden pants.

I've also bought a pair of yoga pants from Gudren Sjoden which are my absolute favourite thing to wear.

@DelphiniumBlue I’ve got some tunic tops from mantaray in Debenhams. Comfy material, have pockets. I just wear with leggings.

I read your title, immediately thought "Mantaray at Debenhams" and had read all the way through thinking "no one has mentioned" and see someone just beat me to it. I wear them all the time with leggings/jeggings/skinny jeans and like you need something to cover my tummy. And I bought some last week and they arrived within a few days and are all great.

Funky Simplicity have some brilliant leggings and catsuits that work with my apple shape. Also Arket has some lovely, loose dresses and tops
