working from home really showed me how being sloppy at home affects my mood and my productivity, and i've invested in good loungewear since this shitshow of a pandemic started.
I really love the idea of buying loungewear with intention.
Great and timely video - thank you! (It makes me smile when cat owners bow to the inevitable and start matching their clothes to their cat's fur!)
hahaha as a new cat owner this was a revelation to me! xx
I just accepted that my cats hair wil show on everything🤣
Love this. I use my loungewear for late afternoon/evenings when I want to be dressed and wear pjs at the same time. Or when I’m an overnight guest and don’t feel quite comfortable in pjs. End result is I’m dressed if I need to be outside and cozy enough for bedtime.
YES - I always struggled with the overnight guest thing! I didn't feel like changing into my denim around someone elses house at 7AM lol See you on April 10 Karen! xx
Im happy to see the watch making a comeback as an accessory in the age of smartphones. They really do class up the outfit!
I will never give up my watches!
Totally agree!
Yes! I totally agree!
I agree, unfortunately I’m part of a two-year health study that has me wearing an Apple watch exclusively. 😑
@@TheDriftwoodlover Hope your health improves.. Thank u4 participating in studies that help so I hope you rock that watch!❤
Presumably I am very very old fashioned but jeans are my loungewear and T-shirt’s with jumpers or cardigans. If I stay in joggers I am not prepared for anything but reading for my pleasure, TV and biscuits.
I’m the same. In winter wool sweaters with a layer underneath if needed, tees or blouse in summer. Having a separate wardrobe feels unnecessary and I never embraced sweats or leggings.
Same here. Loungewear is one category of clothing I never felt I needed. I'm most comfortable in jeans and a t-shirt (or jeans and a sweater in winter ) so I guess that would be my version of loungewear.
I’m exactly the same. I haven’t embraced the loungewear trend. I want to be comfortable but I also want to be able to leave the house looking stylish without having to go and change.
WAS THE SAME, but COVID changed me... I never worked from home before. Now when I work from home, I am in sweatpants.
@@annabelle7123 same. I never understood people who changed into ‘comfies’, before COVID.
I wasn’t a fan of loungewear until COVID happened, but since being stuck in lockdown for months, and unable to go anywhere at all, they’ve become important! I’ve invested in some smart loungewear sets so that I don’t feel sloppy.
My loungewear pieces were also a mix of hand me down, clothes I didn't wear anymore to my work, etc but since covid, I realized how much I needed to improve that!
Same to you enjoy your weekend and thanks for video great look for lounge wear. I still love those.
Thank you so much Anna I'm so glad you liked them! xx
Yoga pants/leggings, hoodie, rayon dresses, and one tshirt/shorts “set” are my “around the house” clothes (aka loungewear). My go to outfit is capris yoga pants/leggings with an above the knee rayon dress with a wire free bra; by most people’s standards I look almost nice enough for church but am as comfortable as most people find sweats. It is also my go to travel outfit for long car and plane rides
I purchased two casual knit dresses in black and navy to wear at home. They even have pockets! I also purchased some attractive slides. Would like to invest in a nice cardigan to complement the dresses.
My leggings are my loungewear, but I can see that having looser, softer joggers would be cozier. I do like to get "dressed" in flannel pj pants, a long sleeved tee, and a cardigan.
Loved all the pieces!! You make loungewear so chic😘
Thank you so much for watching Sara!
Thanks for including the little details(undies, jewelry..) So important. Very informative post. Happy Spring.
I'm so glad you found it helpful thank you for watching! xx
About a month ago, I was stuck at home and out of work due to a snow storm, and I took advantage of that to expand my loungewear capsule for the winter months. For the warmer months, I pretty much live in shorts (or leggings) and a t-shirt. I'm big into wearing leggings and own 5 pairs total (1 of which is for working out), but I also have one pair of joggers, 2 knit pullovers for the winter months, 2 pairs of sweatpants and 2 pairs of gym shorts.
Loungewear is the only way to separate work from home for me right now, so I make sure I change in the evening and for the weekends. I have leggings, hoodie, a couple of cardigans and a couple of Ts. Jeans are for working at home
Loved this retro spectively…I have just invested in a tiny loungewear capsule…to add to my other capsules..I live in Australia , so a lot warmer..but Blue Bungalow have some wonderful casual pieces…great cottons , viscose and bamboo materials.
This is honestly the first year I wore a hoodie and yoga pants to Christmas shop in and it was so comfortable my confidence didn't suffer.
you know, I think it was for me too!
Last year when lockdown continued beyond the initial two weeks, I gathered all the leggings, sweatpants and joggers, rolled them up and put them in a small clear bin for easy, one stop access. Tops didn’t matter as much unless I’m on Zoom.
As I spent most of my time on my bed, jeans, dresses, skirts are out.
One day my very stylish friend was so depressed that I proposed to take pictures of my look for the day to send to her and she can do the same. It made it more fun to get dressed every day. Depression averted.
Thank you Alyssa, your pale blue sweatpants suit looks great on you!
To anyone who is contemplating signing up for Alyssa’s webinar, it is so interactive and fun. I highly recommend it!
Bisous ma chère Alyssa!
The Anna Edit book at the beginning ✨🥂🕊Always appreciate your content and love your channel.
LOVE HER! Thank you so much for watching xx
I have some really cozy jeans that are comfy so I really don’t wear loungewear much at all anymore. I just find I’m not very productive. But during winter vacations, I love to lounge around in a sweatshirt! I would never put a trenchcoat with loungewear so thank you for that inspiration!
Alyssa although I'm 66 years old but I watch your videos because you look like my niece Lena🥰
OMG, your collar up....I'm in heaven!
Thank you for watching Marty! xx
It really is classy & badass!
Another fun video. I tend to only wear sweat type pants for house work or exercise, but I
do wear hoodies with some going out outfits. Your ideas were great, Alyssa!
I'm glad you liked them Mary, thank you for watching! xx
I have also invested in some nice loungewear, mostly tunics and leggins, some woven Joggers for warmer weather, sweater dresses for colder. Sweatpants are for after-workout-couch time
Love that blue chair! (& your style & videos too of course😉❤)
I do have a lounge wear which is mostly cotton palazzos & Tshirts.. as from where I come the climate it's usually hot ...but loved all your looks
Thank you for this! I've been eyeing and wanting to purchase more loungewear. This has helped because I didn't want to just buy things to buy things so this gave me some ideas
I actually decluttered my tired and tattered track pants and mismatched tops (some were threadbare!) this morning. In preparation for our Australian Winter. How fortuitous that you should do a lounge wear capsule Alyssa 😃 💓 Thank you 😊
oh my gosh - me TOO! Felt good to have some "nice" house clothes! xx
@@AlyssaBeltempo 😄💓
Looks so comfortable love and so stylish! 🙏
Thank you i'm glad you like them! xx
When I am sloppy my association is that I am also cozy, and that I don’t have to put in any effort. So I personally don’t mind mismatched, tattered stuff. As long as my clothes are clean I’m good. I wear leggings or sweats with my old band T’s that are a little ratty sometimes but have sentimental value. I don’t have to work from home so no one sees me anyway. Sloppy is in the eye of the beholder lol. It saves me money but also is more sustainable IMO, the sloppy clothes would just end up in the dumpster, since no self-respecting thrift store would take them as a donation and they definitely wouldn’t be sellable on poshmark etc. It’s a way to “use up” what I have until they eventually become workout items, gardening wear, laundry rags, dog towels, etc.
That being said, your loungewear is beautiful and clearly integrates well into the rest of your wardrobe, which is amazing!
Love your thoughts on this! Great point about the
"sloppy" items... i do have a few for outdoor messy days which i've kept for that. So important to get the most out of what we have, as you said!
Merci notamment pour le bla bla qui dérape ! C’est très humain et ça fait du bien!
Lounge wear is definitely my jam. Now that I work from home this video was very helpful. Thank you for sharing ❣️
Alyssa, another great video! I like that the pieces are versatile and you can dress them up or down. I've focused on incorporating comfortable fabrics...jeans with a bit of stretch, knit skirts/dresses, and sweaters. I have to put some effort into styling my clothes so I can feel productive. Love my chic loungewear for weekends. Thanks again and looking forward to the event in a few weeks!
Love the clothes.. I literally just went shopping on Sunday to purchase my winter lounge wear.. ..sooo this video came at the right time thankyou
Happy Sunday morning ☔😊
Happy Sunday Angel! I hope you are staying cosy, it is raining over here too! xx
@@AlyssaBeltempo luckily I have an all day CEC course on this dark rainy day🌧
Now with season change this spring, I tarter wearing sweat shirt pants during the day and now that the waters are calming, we can go to the groceries and purchase home needed things. Your trench coat outfit looks great stylish, and great to fill it with some jewelry.
I'm not a purse fan so. And I have some summer colorful scarves that I'll DIY mixing my old purses to styled it as brand new (some stores are selling those purse lases, so I can do it myself
Hi Alyssa,
Thanks for introducing me to Leze - I’m always looking for great Canadian labels to buy from - Cheers!
Great ideas. I only have a few bits of loungewear, another one who would lounge in jeans! I did buy a pair of bamboo, yoga pants from Bam (an eco ethical, UK company) as a wintry form of harem pants. Like you I would mix them up, too.
I have bought a couple of 'loungewear sets' and tend to mix and match them with t-shirts (long and short sleeve), vests (great for layering), and other casual pieces that I have to create more 'outfit' options.
this video is exactly what I've been looking for!! :)
This video was much needed. Quality content as always 👌
Interesting I had not thought of it. Usually in jeans or pjs but love the blue pants you showed.
PJ bottoms and a sweater. But I like the idea just do not think I can do that..!I would maybe do a 1950s housewife thing or schlep out and enjoy it....would have to wrap my brain around this!!! Xoxo yes I will be at the April event! J ,(is this the same as workout wear because that is a whole other thing that it would be great to have a ivdeo on!!!,) Thank you Alyssa for all you do!
Same! I haven’t paid this much attention to my lounge wear. I usually am just wearing whatever. Usually it’s stained and ratty. LOL. But I recently created a loungewear capsule as well.
Nice ideas. After foot surgery I am locked in and have to stay home on the coach, more or less. But I love to shop my wardrobe, searching for nice comfortable clothing, put together. Thank you !
Hi Anke! I wish you a speedy recovery, I hope your foot is doing OK and that you are resting! xx
Feel better soon!❤🌹
There are more sloppy towns with a twist of style. LOL Great video as always.
Love todays episode! Looking stylish in loungewear is so challenging for petite gals like me because the cut and fabric is not flattering. Most are too thick which looks bulky. Even thin knit fabrics are cut so that it looks like im swimming in it. I need almost a girls size XL but with a cut for woman at hips.
oh i'm so glad you liked it! Those are great points re; being petite thank you for sharing! xx
You made loungewear look stunning! ♥️🙏
I have never locked down or stayed at home but attended a workplace throughout. I could not have survived the past twelve months without critical worker status & I’ve taken no leave. “Home” is just somewhere to sleep.
You must be exhausted. I hope you are doing OK. Thank you for taking the time to watch xx
Since retirement my wardrobe is 95% loungewear. Stylish hoodies are my favorite, even in warmer weather.
Love this content! Your style is so classic.
Is that chair new or vintage?
I love it! Great color.
Love this! I've been working from home for years, and living in the desert with three dogs and a cat means my daily wardrobe is athleisure (which is a step up from what I call "bathleisure"). I should really go with lighter colors because of the animal hair situation, but I'm short and not skinny, so dark colors are more flattering most of the time. I've discovered I have a capsule wardrobe by default--I find myself wearing the same dozen or so pieces every week, adjusting footwear and outer layers for the seasons here in SoCal. I've gone with mostly charcoal and black, with teal and orchid as pops of color, as well as some denim. One thing I've noticed is that wearing patterns seems distracting to me on workdays. I don't even like wearing flannel shirts anymore. I think if I could curate a no-holds-barred comfy capsule, I'd stick with soothing solid colors, like your sweats made from recycled fishing materials. I'd like to add some blush and pale aquamarine because they feel so calming. Maybe that's the pandemic talking. Now, if could just feel brave enough to wear "button pants" again...
I love your thoughts on this! Thanks for sharing Patricia :)
@@AlyssaBeltempo Prego. :) I so enjoy your channel--it's the perfect mix of aspirational fashion and practicality for me. Grazie mille! Ciao!
Love your content! I’m heading to Rome and southern Italy next week and trying to pack inky a carryons. Help! Also, want a cute lounge set so I can sleep on my 8 hour flight but I hear sweats/leggings are a no-no in Italy
No special or new loungewear for me... I teach online from home now so it was just my most comfortable jeans or a couple of velvet pants paired with my favourite shirts, tshirts, woolen cardigans or jumpers, especially turtle neck this winter. And vintage gold jewellery! In the French way, always effortlessly nice and stylish. For spring, jeans or skirts + tshirts or shirts, or dresses... normalwear :)
Sweet! i live in Buttercream Clothing, another great Canadian brand!
Thank you for sharing Katherine I'll have to check them out! xx
I have those Encircled joggers too! Love them!
I do the same for my loungewear, if I have to let the dogs out, get the mail, etc. Coordinated and comfortable. 😁❤️ No trips to Sloppy Town on the itinerary. 😉
Hi beautiful Alyssa, this is a very much needed video! 🙏😃👍 I feel this year has taught me so much about what I feel really really comfortable wearing (read "my inner slob"). I miss my blazers and heels, and belts and silk scarves I wore at the office. But it was also great to slowly allow myself to feel very comfortable, being at home. I couldn't agree more with you on underwear. I love cotton camis with a shelf bra - really good quality with strong support, and also discovered my favourite long sleeve pima cotton T-shirts from Uniqlo. They're divine. And I got a men's 100% cotton hoodie from Uniqlo too, and it's the best quality cotton I've had. Simply fantastic.
Love my cotton PJ bottoms, cotton leggings, and also cashmere leggings, but only for inside the house, and good stretchy AG jeans for a walk outside. I'm so spoiled by good fabrics. They not only look good, but perform well and last. I can't help but check those fabric composition tags on the inside seam. I know you can relate! 😎🙈 Hope you have a wonderful week ahead, and I must admit I was sooooo hoping that the book you were reading in the beginning of the video was mine. 🙈🤣 Big hugs to you, and thanks for the shout out on IG again.😍 Big hugs! 🌺💖🌺
I recently converted to loungewear while WFH but I also like to still feel put together with semi structure even if noone sees me. Love the tips here and I will look into Encircled! Video Suggestion: Would you consider a future video on your book suggestions on fashion tips or style icons?
Really liked the video ! I love your style 👍
So glad you liked it , thank you for watching! xx
I have just started thinking about a loungewear capsule. Great ideas.
I'm glad you found them helpful Kathy! Thank you for watching! xx
I really wanted a matching sweatsuit for lockdown, but I knew I had enough leggings and long-sleeved t-shirts to get by. Get by, not get and buy! I did buy two pairs of joggers, but they are baggier than I wanted. I like a slim leg, or a wider leg without a cuff. Traditional sweatpants are just too sloppy-looking, I think.
Oh wow I was so hoping this would be offered and of course it would be offered by you I'm so excited now I will go watch🥰
I'm so glad it was timely for you Linda! xx
These looks are great inspiration and so chic! Love ❤️
I'm so glad you liked them thank you for watching ! xx
Love this!Great ideas and content.
Great tips
I prefer jumpsuits. Comfy and cute. 😊
They're so easy for home and out! Thank you for watching! xx
Great video, Love your idea of slow fashion (and thanks for your recent video explaining it 😆), I follow a few others but your videos and advice is much more practical and authentic, it also makes me think more about what I already have as opposed to what I need to buy. I’m from Ottawa currently living in Portugal, I think you are in Ottawa, we should do coffee on one of my trips back...whenever that will be 😟
Thank you so much for the kind words of encouragement Naomi! Portugal is AMAZING I would rather meet you for a coffee over there! lol
@@AlyssaBeltempo yes I see your point :)
Great white flats. Do you mind letting me know brand and where to purchase them? Or can find a similar style. Thank you.
The shirt at 3:02 is interesting, does it come like that or do you have a crafty way of tucking it up?
Thank you! It's just a plain long sleeve tee which I just knotted at the front hen tucked it up! :)
Great tips. Chao!! :)
glad you liked them thank you for watching! xx
Hello from Sloppy Town! 😬
I like you greenish lounge pants. What brand are they and are they still available? Have you seek for Tristan lounge wear? Maude in Canada and good looking!
Thank you! They are from Canadian brand Leze the Label - I linked them in the description box and they are still available although I'm not sure about sizing ... I haven't checked out Tristan loungewear but they are another great Canadian brand that I love!
@@AlyssaBeltempo regardez la collection détente. Vraiment jolie!
where is the long sleeve black crop tee from? (:
You make me want a jumpsuit!
Honestly it is one of my hardest working pieces!
Love your white shirt ❤ info??
Hi! What brand is that trench coat from? I love it!
I like velvet loungewear as well, but I don't know if it is sustainable
I'm sure you can find plenty secondhand! :)
@@AlyssaBeltempo in Italy it's not so easy. Second-hand shops often sell very expensive designer clothes.
Sorry if I’m missing it, but where do you get your crisp, white shirts? Thanks.
Hi Diane! Almost all of my white shirts are from Canadian ethical brand Power of My People. In this video, I'm wearing the Tailor in a M but a small would fit me well too. They're a wonderful company :) I also have a 20% discount code ALYSSABELTEMPO :)
I love love love crisp white shirts like the one you’re wearing- but how do you launder it so that it doesn’t accumulate those yellow armpit stains or greying on the inside of the collar?!
ugh ok this is so tough. I am constantly seeking out good natural deodorants but what I tend to do is spot clean after a few wears which is easier than constantly taking the time to clean the whole garment. I have yet to find a deodorant and lifestyle that avoids those yellow stains though! I hope this helps a little!
@@AlyssaBeltempo so, the yellowing is sweat staining, right? I also love natural deodorants, but because they're not antiperspirant, they won't prevent me from sweating out my shirts. I probably should be spot cleaning my shirts after every few wears too. But I'm not sure any deodorants will help us 🤔.
Please can you tell me which design is the POMP shirt?
I only wear my lounge wear between coming home from work and bed.... which is only about 3-4 hours so it doesn't matter if I go to sloppy town. I never wear lounge wear as daily wear ever
Did you say Cladwell?!? i can’t find you. what’s your handle?
Where is that white blouse from please?
❤️❤️❤️❤️
thank you for watching Kathye! xx
Lmao sloppy town 😂😂
lol it is never far these days!
Thank you for redirecting my priorities in the home!! If you believe that Jesus is the Son of God, repent of your sins and be baptized for the forgiveness of your sins then you will be saved according to the bible in Acts 2:38!!! PLEASE HURRY BECAUSE JESUS IS COMING SOON 🙏
Lols sloppy town.
Okay I wish I could look this cute in my joggies but I will say, if I'm wearing that kind of stuff? I'm not too worried about how I look when I do.
On a different note , does anyone have won't you take me to funky town in their head now? Lol idk.. I need more coffee!
lol glad you liked the title heehee
