Working from home for the forseeable future. I want to be comfy and am finding my skinny jeans less so as the weeks go by!
I also want to look and feel relatively nice as I’ve become a bit of a slob and I think it’s not helping my mental frame of mind.

I have some decent leggings but nothing to wear with them.

Any suggestions please for what to wear and where to buy online?

I am struggling with this, no one sees me so it seems pointless to make an effort but I am fed up with my scruffy jeans. I feel the cold too which is always tricky. Looking for Jersey dresses that I can team up with a cardi, leggings and possibly smart trainers but haven't seen anything that inspires me.

Crikey, the Uniqlo web site is bloody annoying to navigate! 😡

I finally got to the dresses section. They seem to have been designed by the North Korean Committee to make women look like slaves!

Not bad prices though.

Loose chinos rolled up, t-shirts and blouses. A cardigan if it’s cold (never wear these in the office!) Also a couple of light dresses for hotter days. I buy a fair bit from Jigsaw.

Footwear is slippers (inside) as we are a shoes off home, and Birkenstocks or trainers (outside).

I haven’t put on makeup since early March, but I do blow dry my hair. My male colleagues look a fright & I generally think there’s a pass right now on ordinary grooming. I felt bad on a call with some Big 4 consultants last week when they’d clearly dressed up & we (client) looked universally very scruffy.

I’ve been searching for some longish t-shirts with the curved hem but can’t find them. I don’t want them too long but long enough to cover bum in leggings!
Where can I get these from?

They're lovely! So chic but relaxed. Quite expensive. I love that it look like they don't need ironing, is that right? Thanks for the link. From a pic, it looks like the trousers sit quite high waist and have a think waist band - did you find this and is it uncomfortable?
