It’s been a tough year and let’s face it 2021 doesn’t look like it’s getting any easier, so to perk you guys up we thought we’d bring you a bit of winter glam (dressed down). Think loungewear, walking attire and that essential errand look. We’ve put our heads together with Sara Ebrahim, a personal shopper and stylist who is currently enjoying her maternity leave and being a new Mama. Here are our outfit picks to keep you looking your best in lockdown 3.0. If you feel inspired to make a purchase, we’ve dropped the links for these pieces below each image.
Lounge
Invest in some loungewear that feels and looks great. Comfort is key whether you’re homeschooling, relaxing or running around after toddlers. There are so many different styles out there, from hoodies to crewnecks and wide legs to cuffed. Mix it up and try something new, who ever said loungewear couldn’t be exciting?
