WHAT TO CONSIDER WHEN BUYING LOUNGEWEAR
We took the following factors into consideration when selecting the loungewear for this list:
Fabric: When buying loungewear, the type of fabric it's made from is a huge consideration. As this is total comfort wear, you'll want to look for cosy options that are soft against your skin.
Style: This is completely up to how and wear you intend to wear your loungewear. Is it for when you're out and about? Or is it just lounging around at home? There are styles to suit every occasion, or simply styles that best suit you and your personal taste.
Budget: Loungewear ranges from budget-friendly to super luxe, again this will depend on the purpose of your outfit, the quality of the fabric and the brand you choose.
Warmth: Choose warm yet breathable fabrics to keep you comfy all year round.
CAN I WEAR LOUNGEWEAR OUT OF THE HOUSE?
Absolutely! While it came into its prime during lockdown, loungewear seems to have permanently crept into the everyday, whether at home or out and about. You can dress it up or down, throw a coat or blazer over the top and a pair of crocs, trainers or heels on your feet - chic comfort all day long!
