What to wear if you're working from home

What to wear if you're working from home

Are you working from home right now? Apparently, 42% of US workers have set up their desks at home this year. But that doesn't mean you can slack off on your workwear.

There are several good reasons to keep dressing for work. To start with, you never know when your boss is going to demand an unexpected Zoom call - and you don't want to get caught in your PJs!

Many people also find that dressing for work puts them in the right frame of mind. When you're in professional clothes, you're signalling to yourself (and anyone else in the house!) that you're smart, busy and ready to work.

However, since you're working from home, you can afford to relax just a little bit. The trick is to find workwear which looks great and is comfortable to wear. We like these Uma pants, which have a smart black and white stripe - and that all-important elastic waistband. Or if you're looking for a cosy, classy top, try this pale pink Vittoria blouse with its stylish kimono sleeves.

Jumpsuits are also a big look in 2020. They're comfortable, practical and best of all, a complete outfit in one. We recommend this Kara jumpsuit, which has a sophisticated vertical ombre stripe. The high waist and wide leg are achingly modern and easy to wear.

Finally, you can't go wrong with a classic blazer. This Camille set teams a cool white blazer with smart, structured shorts. It's the perfect mix of on-screen style and casual days at home. We can't get enough!
