This isn't anything revolutionary, but I recently discovered the benefit of having proper "house shoes". As someone who works from home full time, I found that wearing slippers all day made me feel a bit schlumpy no matter how much I liked the rest of my outfit. I also work at a standing desk for part of the day and was really craving something with more support. I got a pair of birkenstocks lined with shearling and wow - what a difference! They are cozy like slippers, but much more supportive and look and feel like actual shoes. They aren't the fanciest things in the world, but make all of my outfits feel much more polished and intentional than my slippers (even though I am squarely in the no-jeans camp!). They would also work great for quickly popping out of the house in a pinch, though I reserve mine strictly for indoors. Something to consider if you want something cozy like your ugg slippers, but more polished feeling :)

Such a good post - really inspiring and glad I’m not the only one who struggles with the jean/no jean conundrum. You’ve inspired me to change it up!

You're so real for the UGGs comment. 😂 I love that you wore the same shoes throughout - it shows how versatile they are. Are those socks or tights underneath? Love!

Thanks Alisha! They are little pull on socks in a tights fabric. I find them a nice one to wear with slimmer profile shoes in the winter x

As one of the non-jean work-from-homers, I think you nailed the first 5 outfits! They all look so comfortable, relaxed, and put together. Will definitely try these out. Thanks, Anna!

I'm extremely comfortable in jeans, probably because I can't stand even a smidge of tightness anymore. A divisive topic, but I'll never go back to skinnies!

I have those orangey Mango knitted trousers and was totally stumped how to style them until I saw this - paired with denim is genius! Such a great look!

WFH in winter for me is wearing every jumper I own, plus a blanket and a hot water bottle on my lap, but I can aspire to looking this cool in the summer. 🤣
