What might have started as a reprieve from uncomfortable outfits and packed schedules, the new normal has turned into endless days and weeks of working and playing from home. While wearing pajamas all day, every day can be pretty incredible, a few months later, the thrill may have lost some of its shine. So while a return to standard operating procedures is still some time away, if you're looking for comfortable pieces that'll also make you feel put together, have I got the list for you.

It may seem like comfortable and polished, don’t necessarily go together. But the truth is, loungewear has come a long way, and with the right choices, you can find great pieces that effortlessly pull your look together. Chunky sweaters and button-down cotton tunics are always on point (and perfect for Zoom calls), not to mention that they pair well with just about anything. Cardigans can always be counted on to add some polish to any outfit. And if you really want to get fancy there’s a dynamite one-and-done sweater dress on this list you won’t want to miss. For the bottom half, you'll find jeans with enough stretch that they don't feel like jeans and slip-on shoes that are as comfy as sneakers but look more like loafers.

So, if you’re ready to get freshen things up, keep scrolling for some clever ideas that'll feel as good as they look.
