WFH Is My Life—I Wear These 8 Pieces on Repeat
Creating a capsule wardrobe takes time and after nearly two years of the "new normal," I've nailed my work-from-home clothing assortment. Anyone who has worked from home has probably experienced the same polar opposites that I have. I've spent the day in pajamas typing up a meeting brief from the couch and also gone all out sitting propped up at my desk in a tailored suit. At the beginning of this transition to a whole new way of working, I played around with these two extremes, and my experimental findings have led me to create the capsule wardrobe that I share with you today.
While dressing to impress can skyrocket my productivity on days that I need it, I've noticed that a healthy balance between formal and casual can make such a big difference. For some, that might mean the slightest upgrade of trading in your mismatch socks and overworn pajamas for a put-together matching set. This may be framed as the same level of formality by some but can still make a huge difference in how you go about your day. I've assembled a collection of workleisure outfits and the pieces that make them so great. If you are missing any of the below items, be sure to complete your capsule wardrobe by adding them to your cart.
