Loungewear the perfect choice if you have to work at home

At the moment everything is different than usual. A lot of people work from home and have to combine this with taking care of the children who can't go to school. Although you can just sit at the table in your work outfit, loungewear is the perfect choice if you have to work at home.

Work from home

Due to the Coronavirus and all the measures surrounding the virus, many people are forced to stay at home or not. While some people cannot work, because they work in the hospitality industry, for example, some people just have to work at home. It takes some getting used to for everyone. Are you used to normally being at the office on time, suddenly you have to do your work from your own home. And then there are the children who are not allowed to go to school for the time being. All in all, a decent switch for the whole family.

Loungewear the perfect choice if you have to work from home

Of course you can put on your best suit every day and sit behind your table to get started. There is certainly something to be said for that. After all, clothing has an impact on our state of mind. If you dress as usual, this may be just enough to give you inspiration to stay energized at work throughout the day.

On the other hand, this is a completely different situation. Everything that was once normal is no longer. At the office you are among people, you have direct contact, that is not the case now. Of course you stay in touch with your colleagues and boss via Skype, Facetime, Whatsapp and special video conferences, but that is different. So why shouldn't you tailor your clothes accordingly? In addition, you do not have children at the office, they are normally at school or daycare.

So, if you have to work at home all day and take care of the kids at the same time, it's best to choose comfortable clothes. Pajamas are not a good choice, pajamas are only for bed. If you're walking around in pajamas all day, you're signaling to your brain to laze around and take it easy. Loungewear as I have seen at LASCANA is the perfect solution for when you have to work at home.

When most people think of loungewear, they might think of pajama-style clothing, but that's not the case. Of course you could also hang with it on the couch or even sleep with it. But loungewear is so much more than that. The clothing is especially comfortable to wear all day long and the design goes with the times and trends.

Comfortable clothes for the home

Working from home alternates with taking care of the children. In the meantime, you still want to look presentable if your colleague wants to make a video call or if your boss wants to organize an online meeting. You can certainly do that with the right clothes. The advantage of loungewear is that you always wear comfortable pants or dress. And the choice for pants doesn't matter much anyway, nobody sees that in the video.

The tops are often a nice combination of sporty and comfy, so you can still look presentable if you unexpectedly receive a video call. If your children need your attention in between or are shy about entertainment, you don't have to change clothes. With loungewear you can walk straight into the garden with the kids to play a fun game.

Keep fit at home

In addition to working and taking care of the children, you should not forget to stay fit at home. You really don't have to leave the house to stay fit, although it can't hurt to take a long detour (with at least 1.5 meters away of course) or go cycling. You don't need much to stay in shape at home. I do recommend that you use suitable sportswear. That makes training within your own four walls just a lot more relaxed. Just tailor your choice of clothing to what you want to do. In any case, I advise you to purchase a good sports bra and comfortable leggings. They always come in handy, regardless of which sport you are going to do from home.
