Show me what you wear to be warm and cosy when WFH

[SweetAlmondOil]

I'm sitting in my home office with the heating on but am still quite chilly. I'd love to be snuggled up in some sort of mega fluffy fleece coat. I have plenty of warm fleeces but when I sit down they ride up at the back and my lower back gets cold. I have a Bench fleece that goes down to mid thigh but it's not very thick.

Has anyone come across something really warm and comfy that covers your lower back/bottom, that you can put on top of a jumper when WFH with no video calls?

I use a blanket for this purpose, but I'll be interested in other answers (I could always be warmer when WFH!).

My neighbour has an Oodie and loves it! I’m tempted

I have a knock off Oodie from Amazon, Cost £22 It's very warm.

I've been wfh for nearly ten years and blankets are the way to go - I have a super big fleecy one that I double over part way up so it comes up to my waist but still covers all my legs and feet.

If it's a super-cold day, I'll also have a short fleece dressing gown on top of my clothes plus fingerless gloves. I do have a fan heater for the dead of winter but I don't like putting it on unless I'm desperate :D

An oversize plush fleece hoodie from Amazon and microwavable slipper boots.

Or onesie.

But I didn't know about these oodie things (I've had the short dressing gown for years) - I'd get one of those instead for non-video calls!

I've resorted to cuddling a hot water bottle today

Thank you @JacobReesMogadishu - I might just get myself one.

@Sparticle goodness how I'd love to see a picture :-D :-D :-D

I wear these, they keep my wrists warm which helps with my hands. They’ve made a massive difference to how warm I feel l.

Goodness, Oodie marketing really is everywhere right now.

Turtle doves gloves and a blanket, plus sometimes I throw on a shawl/poncho thing too. Have to still look vaguely presentable for teams calls so can't wear the big hoodie things, otherwise I probably would.

ugg boots, joggers and big jumper or tshirt with warm cardi

Anyone else just putting the heating on?

Primark fleece lined leggings

I was WFH from March to July and it was still quite cold at the beginning of that time. One thing I found really useful was a poncho which I'd never really worn much before that. I could just put it on over whatever I was wearing and warm up very quickly, and unlike a scarf it didn't keep falling off. I think mine comes down to about the bottom of my bum in the middle, and it also has a cowl neck, which makes it very warm.

I wear knitted loungewear trousers and sets - most recent set is from Boohoo so doesn't have to be expensive. With my hair and make up done I still look professional for zoom calls, as the majority of knitted sets are slash or high necks rather than hoodie style. I layer with a vest and a long sleeve top, cashmere socks if needed but usually my Ugg slippers (not boots!). Only really need to add more than this in very very cold weather - then I add cashmere wrist warmers and a scarf, and a blanket over my knees.

Primary fleece lined leggings, ugg slippers, long sleeves t short and long fluffy cardigan seems to be my basic working from home and keeping warm wardrobe

I did buy a lovely fleece/ fluffy jumper from next last week which is super cosy

Cashmere shawl (from brora). They are quite big and warm

I just ordered this. Thank you! I didn't even know these things existed until today.

And heat a large house just to warm up the home office? We have a separate heater in this room but it's still chilly.

Put your heating on! I am often cold at work, but never wfh.

Tuck everything in if you're not seen! So socks over trousers, long vest tucked in etc. Helps a lot

Heated throw over the knees and tucked round the back. Fingerless gloves or wrist warmers - Woolovers or Turtle Doves. Longs socks with trousers, leggings tucked in. Wear a vest.

I wear long tunic type jumpers, always in a size up and layer a vest and long sleeve t under

Thermal tights and vests from M&S under everything, and pashminas
