The past few years have brought many things into our lives — click and collect shopping and the decidedly comfy loungewear fashion trend.

Thankfully, the sartorial trend that prioritises comfort and cosiness above all else shows no signs of receding.

Once the domain of Sporty Spice and the housewives from different global cities we watch on TV, loungewear remains one of the most in-demand categories on shopping sites across the world.

And it’s not hard to see why – it ticks all the boxes. Comfortable? Yes. Looks good? Yes. Are you basically wearing work-appropriate pyjamas? Yes again.

And these days there is a wide range of options to choose from, including The Oodie's sherpa loungewear set that news.com.au checkout Rosalyn Fannin, says is "worth every cent" as it's "soft, cosy and oh so snuggly" and "unbelievably warm". They also have a stylish wide leg pant option.

There's also Homebodii's ultra chic Petra Lounge Pyjama set that satisfied shoppers say was "love at first wear" and have dubbed it "the most comfortable pyjamas ever".

What You Need To Know

As a perpetually cold person, you’ll often find me huddled under an electric blanket in my Oodie with a hot choccy in hand all through winter. While I love my two regular Oodies, I thought I needed something a little bit extra this winter, and upgraded to the Oodie loungewear set, and it was worth every cent.

Just like the classic Oodie, both the jumper and plants are lined with the iconic Sherpa fleece lining that fans of the brand have come to know and love. So soft, cosy and oh so snuggly. And unbelievably warm.

I wear a size 8 or 10 and fit into the Small to Medium size like a glove. I loved being covered (almost) head to toe while being free to move around the house - something not always possible wearing my Oodie. Gone are the days of tripping over the droopy front or the sleeves dunking into what I’m eating.

And the best part of all - the pockets. The pants come with three (yes three!) pockets. This was unfamiliar territory for me and something most women aren’t familiar with. This gets a huge tick in my book.

Overall am I saying farewell to my two regular Oodies? Absolutely not. But they have moved down a peg in my cosy at-home attire rotation. The number one spot now goes to this Oodie loungewear set.

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.
