What are your "lounge clothes"?

[rosiedozie]

Yoga pants and a t-shirt or tank top are my go-to.

[ohgillian]

Very glad that you posted this; I have wondered about this, too.

I wear black old navy yoga pants every single evening. And maybe a cami with a hoodie in winter, or just a tee shirt in summer.

[chessie]

work out clothes or my riding crap clothes (jeans/tshirt and a sweater). I go with what works with what I am doing. Normally I am either working out before or after work or riding/cleaning horse stuff, so it makes sense.

Cool weather: Usually a tank top with a shelf bra (or recently nursing tanks), a cardigan or zip-up sweater, and yoga/pj pants. Old jeans may also come into the mix

Warm weather: if i want to be groped, booty exercise shorts and a tank top or a spaghetti strap nighty. If I don't want to be groped, knee length exercise shorts and a t-shirt.

For sleeping/lounging, I have a bunch of coordinated sleep stuff - soft knit pants, camis with a little lace, and soft wrap cardigans in different colors. If I know I'm not leaving the house, or am going to bed soon, I'll usually throw those on.

If we're walking the dogs, or it's going to be a weekend of doing stuff around the house, I do yoga pants and a fitted t-shirt.

[Ashley&Scott]

Yoga pants & a nursing tank for me, a hoodie if it's cold.

DH also switches to lounge clothes. Either a tshirt & gym shorts or sweats.

We both change into track pants and tshirts as soon as we get home.

If I know I'm not going anywhere, I'll wear pajama shorts or pants and a tank top or tshirt. If there a chance that I might need to run to the store or something, yoga pants with tank top or shirt. I have a lot of those Costco Lululemon knockoff yoga pants that are perfect for lounging around the house. If I plan on running at some point, I might hang out in my real Lulu running tights, capris, or shorts until I go (like when I get up on a Sunday).

I almost always wear a cotton dress, but if its cold - lulu crops or tights and a tank and jacket.

I love to wear dresses and find them so easy to just throw on when I get home, bonus points b/c I look like I'm trying. DH loves my lulu wear, even though its pricey he says its worth it b/c it makes my ass look amazing. When he wants to buy me a gift, he usually takes me there to buy an outfit (he knows better than to try and pick something out for me) - it is nice b/c I tend to only buy things when they go to the 'sale' rack.

Yoga pants/pj bottoms and a tee shirt.

Our dog sheds horribly and insists on laying on us so we have house clothes that are washed separately from everything else.

[mbcdefg]

As soon as we get home from work, we both put on pajamas. MH wears gym shorts and sometimes a t-shirt, I'm in long PJ pants and a baggy t-shirt (and a sweatshirt if it's cold).

If I have to run a quick errands, it's black yoga pants and a jacket or nicer t-shirt.

Neither of us has ever complained about it. I don't want to sit around in jeans, or "waste" nicer clothes (or get cat hair on them) than I can wear if we're hanging out with friends.

I'm very pro lounge clothes.

I hate wearing nice clothes around the house and only wear pajamas for sleeping.

So in between, it's typically: Lulu yoga pants + "Nice" tee (i.e. J.Crew not ratty old sorority tee)

Comfortable but presentable in case someone drops by or I have to run an errand.

Ok this is what I need to move toward.

[audette]

I wear pretty much the same thing day in and day out.

Jeans, t-shirt, and if it's chilly, a flannel shirt or fleece vest (or both if I'm really cold).

I WFH, so that's what I wear when I'm working here, and it's what I wear in the evenings and on the weekends. It's comfy. Probably not super flattering, but it's the same type of stuff I wore when DH and I were dating. I do have some slacks and nicer tops if I need to dress up for something, but they're not as comfy.

A tank dress in the summer.

Yoga pants, tank, and cardigan in the winter. I hate most pajama pants with the fire of a thousand suns.

[emilyinchile]

I WFH now, but when I was at my old office I'd usually change into jeans and a t-shirt after work. If I'd worn something comfy, like leggings with a dress/tunic to work, I'd just stay in that.

I don't like lounging in PJs for some reason, it makes me feel blah.

[jenn248]

I always change as soon as I get home so that I don't get dog hair (or dinner) on my work clothes. Pre-pregnancy, I would usually wear jeans with a plain, fitted t-shirt or a cotton sundress in the summer (I am not a fan of shorts). If it's cold, I'll add a zip-up hoodie or sweater. I generally don't put on sweats unless I am sick. Now that I am pregnant, I've been wearing yoga pants, since I don't find maternity jeans to be particularly comfortable.

Can some of you post pictures of these cotton dresses and maxi dresses and robes you're wearing around the house as lounge clothes? I just can't picture it but I'm also thinking this might be a good option for me. I just keep getting an image of Mrs. Roper in my mind.

[isabel]

I just got these cute merino wool pullovers from Costco last week. They're super comfy and perfect for wearing over a tank top. I've also been using them as warm ups for my workouts.

When I went to get a couple more, DH said "cool, you look good in them."

[hulley]

On most nights I'm in my work clothes until after dinner. Then I shower and put on lounge clothes. Usually old navy lounge gauchos/capris with a tank in the summer and sweater pants (from Target) and a top in the winter.

If I know I'm going back out, I put on jeans and a more casual top/sweater and maybe a cardigan if it's cold. I wear this with flats.

Yoga pants and a stretchy top. They're form fitting so not horrible. H never complains about them and often says I look cute. But the thing is, I certainly wouldn't wear that stuff out of the house if I wasn't going to the gym. So I think I am guilty of breaking that rule on the list in spirit if nothing else. Why do I find it necessary to dress up andlook nice for everyone except my H?

Here's one of my favorite comfy dresses, it's a jersey dress I got from the Banana Republic outlet. (Yes that is me with a cutout of Paula Deen.)

I'm freezing at our house, so DH gets a choice: He turns up the heat or I keep wearing sweats. I'm even thinking of getting gloves (the house is really drafty.) I can't get warm here.

I could keep on some work clothes, but since my pants are hemmed for heels, I'd have to wear those or risk ruining my pants by walking on the hem.
