I hope this post finds you well!
Work-from-home (WFH), now made official with its own acronym, is going to be the new norm for a while so Melissa and I wanted to share some of our favorite ways to be comfortable and chic when working remotely and social distancing… and yes, are a little close here but these were shot before the 6ft rule was in place!
Since we both conduct business out of our home offices on the regular, we have first-hand experience with the challenges of staying focused and on task when remote working. We know there may be the temptation to stay in your pajamas all day long… we get that. However, we felt it was our duty to share a piece of good advice. Before you start your at-home workday, change out of the pj’s you slept in the night before; making this transition signals to your brain that you are ready to kick it into boss-babe mode. This small decision is one of the best ways to motivate and create a positive structure and routine for the day ahead.
We are here to inspire you to get dressed with our top favorite cozy picks below. Most of these items can be mixed and matched, ready to take you from working in the house to stepping outside for a walk or a quick trip to the market; I’ve been wearing my mask and gloves, mostly to remember NOT to touch my face! *Did you know the average person touches their face 1200 x’s a day??
Studded socks from Elizabeth Reid
While we love a cozy pair of socks to keep our tootsies warm as we shuffle around the house, it’s also nice to have a comfortable shoe to keep close by for that quick trip to grab the mail, walk your best friend or simply to step outside and get some fresh air. Our favorite styles are fashion slides and slipper styles like the ones pictured above from Roam Wear - Use Discount Code grateful10 at checkout. 15% will go to Feeding America.
Yes, we take this all seriously but we can’t forget to have a laugh with our friends, 1- go to YouTube and you learn how to set up Zoom calls, we all need laughter. 2- Watch a comedy. I’ve been watching Sebastian ManiScalo non-stop! He’s hysterical, and you can find short videos on YouTube or on his Instagram Page.

For a bit of a chic twist, try throwing on a kimono style as an option to a long sweater-coat. Grayson button-up shirts are the softest cotton, I live in them all year round. Pants are from Franne Golde in navy.
