There’s nothing better than slipping into a snug and stylish loungewear set on a cold day. Whether you’re changing after a busy day at work, getting dressed on the weekend, or are a work-from-home cutie that always wants to be comfortable, everyone needs a cozy set of clothing in their wardrobe. As the days get shorter and chillier, we want you to have some comfortable options to choose from.
What is loungewear?
Loungewear is casual clothing designed for relaxing and lounging at home. It’s a mixture of the comfort of pajamas blended with casual daywear, resulting in something that can be worn both indoors and outdoors. Loungewear is usually made from soft, breathable fabrics like cotton, fleece, or jersey, and even luxurious materials like cashmere and silk. They’re made into items like sweatpants, hoodies, leggings, and matching sets. While loungewear used to just be a late evening or weekend outfit, loungewear sets have become an all-day thing for some in the age of remote work and virtual meetings.
Need some loungewear inspo? Here are some stylish options.
How to Style Loungewear
1. Biker Shorts and a T-Shirt
Our favourite summer staple outfit for errands is also ideal for early fall indoors, especially if you live in a relatively warm climate or find yourself curled up by the fireplace. Biker shorts provide the perfect amount of stretch when you're moving from your desk to your couch and still want to look put together enough if you need to answer the door. Pair them with a soft oversized cotton T-shirt, and you're good to go. Our Original shorts are opaque, light as air, and super comfortable. Pair them with a graphic tee for a fun yet laid-back look.
2. Gray Sweatpants
Nothing says fall loungewear like gray sweatpants, a casual style beloved by everyone. Soft, warm, and undeniably cozy, gray sweatpants are the epitome of relaxed style and pair well with everything from cropped T-shirts to roomy hoodies. Gray sweatpants come in a wide variety of materials, from light terry cloth to thick scuba-like fabric. On an extra brisk day, a layer of Thigh Society Staple shorts underneath adds even more warmth and you won’t even notice you’re wearing them thanks to the lightweight, velvety material. You could even go sans undies with just shorties and gray sweatpants for a no-show underwear kind of day. Wear your sweats during your Netflix marathons, or throw on a puffer jacket and some chunky sneakers for a quick coffee run this fall.
3. Matching Loungewear Sets
Colourful matching sets are very much here to stay, and during fall and winter we like to wear cozy iterations of these ensembles. From cotton to fleece to satin, these matching sets come in various materials and styles, allowing you to choose what fits your mood and temperature. As we go from summer to fall, we’re particularly enamored by colourful satin pajama-style sets — so comfy yet stylish enough to wear outside. If you’re more into muted tones, matching sets in soft beige, earthy tones, and muted pastels are all the rage this season, perfect for staying cozy while looking effortlessly put-together.
4. Cashmere Hoodie and Pants
For the luxury lover, there’s nothing softer and richer-feeling to wear as loungewear than a cashmere loungewear set. Cashmere is world-renowned for its unparalleled softness, warmth, and breathability, making it the ultimate fabric for chilly days. A cashmere hoodie paired with matching cashmere joggers or pants takes your loungewear game to the next level. The perfect blend of laid-back and luxurious, imagine taking a warm shower then slipping into a luxe cashmere set, and eating snacks on your sofa. Just be mindful about staining your set, since it’s cashmere you won’t want to throw it into your washer and dryer all the time. Whether you’re relaxing by the fireplace or hosting a cozy night in with your significant other or best friends, this loungewear set will have you wrapped up in warmth and sophistication.
5. Flannel Loungewear
No fall and winter loungewear collection is complete without some flannel, the ultimate cozy material. Synonymous with warmth, a flannel set is a must-have for colder months and the brushed fabric feels like a warm hug. We especially love holiday-themed and plaid loungewear sets in this material, perfect for a movie night at home. Pair with fuzzy slippers or wool socks for the ultimate cozy evening in.
