What To Wear While Working From Home?

Everyone is trying to adjust to the idea of working from home but still most of the people are confused about what to wear that could help them not only to feel comfortable but also to feel productive.

We all love to feel comfortable especially in times like these where the situation is quite stressful, and we all are house bound. When feeling low people dress up to feel better which boosts their confidence. Here are some tips on what to wear while working from home which would make you feel comfortable yet stylish.

Start by looking into your wardrobe and find something professional yet stretchy which can be stretch pants, shirts, skirts, pair them up with formal blazer and you are good to attend your video conference with your client or coworkers. Stretch fabrics are very popular these days. While looking in your closet you might find some top which you bought but never wore because you were not sure whether its classy enough to wear in the meeting. Now you can figure how can it work as an outfit as you are working from home and you don’t have to follow any strict dress code.

Our mood is affected by the colors around and we usually wear colors which reflect our mood. Different colors have different affects e.g. hotter shades such as red, reddish purple, orange and yellow make you feel active and productive whereas cooler colors like blue and green make you feel relaxed and calm. So, choose the colors accordingly. You can add color to your outfit with accessories, such as colored ribbons or hair ties, necklace, earrings and scarves etc. but for this you need to mix the neutral shades with the bold shades. If you are wearing a neutral colorless shirt wear a vibrant scarf.

Most interesting part of working from home is that no one knows what is actually going on outside that rectangular box that these video conferencing applications capture so women can you formal blouse with sweatpants. For a formal meeting women can even wear solid colored round/V-neck T-shirt with track pants and a formal blazer on top with some wear at home pendant and earrings, trust me you would be the most dressed up in the meeting at least from the waist up. Light make up with some vibrant lipstick will also do the trick. You can also paint your nails in nude colors which would make your look complete. You can wear light jewelry which you can wear in day to day routine. But don’t over do your look as you are working from home, so you need to keep it subtle.

Unless you have meetings, you can wear whatever you feel comfortable in which can be sweatsuits, pajamas or loungewear. I would suggest when you have meetings you should be dressed formal at least waist up and wear whatever you like waist down. Be creative, mix and match but do not go wild with the combinations and contrasts. Dress for work in the morning as you normally did and changing out of your work clothes would help you feel normalcy.
