I've been working entirely from home since 2016. In that time, I've watched my high-maintenance dresses, stiff blazers, and scratchy blouses slowly but surely work their way to the back of my closet. Now, front and center, is loungewear that I actually enjoy wearing; in addition to being the coziest staples of my closet, these pieces are also surprisingly stylish. So how, exactly, do you find comfy pieces that make you look so much cuter around the house? It's a simple equation: Soft fabric and a stylish but functional design equals loungewear you'll love.

When it comes to comfort, fabric is arguably the most important factor. Personally, I'm a fan of rayon, which comes from cellulose via things like wood pulp, because it's often breathable and warm — but as with most things in life, it's a matter of personal preference. Check the tags on your currently-owned favorites to see which fabrics you most often gravitate towards.

Then there's design, which is even more subjective, but will influence both the functionality and the look of a piece. Think about your daily routine and try to choose articles of clothing that will support it rather than hinder it. Do you need pants that breathe while you exercise? A top that's professional enough for a Zoom call? Sleepwear that passes for daywear in case you need to run errands? Once you've considered the clothing's purpose, the rest should be easy — simply pick a style you'll look forward to wearing and choose your favorite color option.

The 46 pieces below check all of the boxes: They're comfy, cute, and suitable for a wide range of activities for all of the homebodies out there.

This Keyhole Sports Bra That Begs To Be Seen
