The quarantine has thought us a lot and more importantly how to stay safe and dress comfortably. Having spent so much time at home, we have skipped wearing work outfits and LBDs for a night out with friends.

Cozy loungewear and face masks were our favorites apart from other around-the-house alternatives. Here are five essentials that turned our definition of fashion and comfort during this pandemic.

1. Loungewear

This is definitely the official stay-at-home outfit. Joggers, track pants, hoodies, relaxed pants and pajamas qualified as our favorite loungewear. Clearly for a long time this style is here to stay.

2. Activewear

Home workouts and virtual classes were popular to keep one mentally and physically fit. Activewear was our favorite when it came to sweating it out at home. Again comfort was the main factor here even when it came to staying fit.

3. Face masks

Keep it on stylish or not. Face masks were a must for this pandemic as the world was reeling under the deadly coronavirus. While fashionistas gave it a twist, many kept it on irrespective of the style statement.

4. Pajamas

Gone are the days when PJs were all about sleeping but now they are qualified as daily loungewear at home, Zoom calls and even for award ceremonies. Yes, Jennifer Aniston did it.

5. ‘Zoom’ tops

With endless video meetings, we have aced the game of wearing outfits apt for Zoom calls. Polished blouses and breezy shirts were everyone’s favorite. Not only was it comfortable but a stylish choice for many. Having said that the tops went well with the pajamas because it didn’t really matter.
