I do miss my old routine. I really, really do. For as long as I can remember, Sundays involved morning church followed by a meal with the extended family either at a restaurant or at home. Post-pandemic, Sundays consist of an on-line church service followed by more……you guessed it…….staying home.

I’m trying to embrace the good that comes with all of this at-home time, and I’m beginning to appreciate one of the perks that comes with being at home so much: comfy clothing!

Up until last March, my daily uniform involved dress pants, blouses, and pumps. And I didn’t mind it. I loved it. But I gotta say, I never had enough appreciation for just wearing comfy clothes. These days, if it does’t feel really good on, I’m just not going to wear it. In short, the pandemic has led me to peruse more of the cozy end of apparel lines more than I have in all the rest of my years.

This week I share some more of my cozy at home picks.

First, I’m highlighting some Splendid lounge pants. I have a pair of these, and they are, well, splendid :). Just a great pair of effortless, soft pants that look great on too.

Next, the classic chambray shirt from J Crew. I find myself reaching for J Crew apparel time and time again, because the brand is just consistently classic, well-made, and you will be getting a great value for your money. This chambray shirt goes with everything and acts as a second layer when the weather turns chilly.

The adorable hat by Jeff and Aimy is packable and lightweight, so you’ll be comfortable and shaded during your outdoor activities.

For comfy feet, try these colorblock sandals from Ecco. My feet are very picky when it comes to what’s comfortable, but Ecco shoes always make them happy.

This cute graphic tee, available on Amazon, is a comfy, casual option that reminds us to stay optimistic and compassionate.

I have a classic Andirondack chair in my yard, and I love it. Its timeless design will always look great wherever you put it, and they are extremely comfortable. I love this fun chair from Signature Design by Ashley in turquoise. What a beautiful color!

Nothing beats an ice cold drink while you’re relaxing outdoors or even just making sure you’re well-hydrated and healthy. This s’well stainless steel bottle in rose geode is both beautiful and practical.

Finally, this great collection of indoor-outdoor pillow covers in gorgeous hues of turquoise and coral pink gives your pillows a quick and easy makeover.

Enjoy your day and take time to Relax!
