Pro tip: Always wear a cotton/linen/bamboo long sleeve tee under sweaters. Sweaters do not like being washed. Minimal skin contact will reduce the amount you need to launder it.

I just ordered some stuff from Organic Basics, afterwards I found out they are bought by Delta Galil industries, an Isreali company, just letting yall know 😭

"The more you layer the more you distract people from your pants." This is so cute

I love wearing long skirts with elastic waistbands and leggings underneath. I find it very comfy!

@chrissym4130 8 months ago

As someone with chronic pain, I love leggings. They provide a little compression, which makes it more bearable.

@XtoZheYa 8 months ago

As someone who is nothing close to being "grown-up" stylish, I find you videos extremely useful and comforting.
Also, absolutely love you photoshoot for Organic Basics!

P.S. Having your camera so low we can't see the neck piece is a crime

imo it's not hard to find comfy dress pants or comfy office-friendly dresses and skirts. most of my work pants are just as comfortable as yoga pants, the main difference is they have zippers and pockets (and are more socially acceptable to wear to the office). for tops i feel like if you just get fabrics and fits that feel good on you, you can find nearly any kind of top that's comfy, except maybe the ones that are explicitly intended to be really clingy and tight.

I actually think "suit pants" that are baggy and wide leg are very comfortable, the problem is you have to find ones that are not stiff or too tight on the top, which can be hard to find - go oversized and tailor the waist if necessary so you don't have to wear a belt. I wear them all the time, with leggings under if it's cold.

I struggle a lot with bloating and stomach pain from tight clothes and back when skinny jeans were big, I always had to unbutton my jeans under my shirt when sitting esp after a meal and now I will only wear elastic pants but it’s hard to find nice elastic pants :/ I have some nice pants with a zip and button but they hurt my stomach when I bloat so I had to give them to my sister. Would be so much easier to look better if I did not have this constraint

My comfy work appropriate clothes for winter include oversized men’s sweaters, vintage blazers, waxed cotton hunting jacket, vintage cargo pants (U.S. army WWII), late 90s lightweight wool trousers, Y2K corduroy pants, fine knit turtlenecks/mock necks and always layer undershirt and leggings for extra warmth. Hats and scarves are a great way to add personality. I work in an office every day now but when I worked from home for two years, changing into an outfit mixing vintage and thrifted finds gave me a big boost

just found this and I think this is brill for layering for autumn/winter season. I always struggle with stiff elegant clothes and even more with itchy sweaters

@sztucznamotyka1768 8 months ago

Comfy cotton/wool (like merino) tights are lifesavers too. They're warm, but you can buy different thicknesses. I am wearing old, like big kids-like cotton tights under thin pants, and, as you said, I don't feel them. I also think they lay better under everything than some leggins.

I’m on a practical uni course and I want to look cute and presentable but get bored of constantly wearing sweatpants so I’m gonna take these tips to help me make my outfits cuter but practical!

@danielleminshall3668 8 months ago

I’m sure you didn’t even mean to do this but your outfit formulas have saaaaaved me being pregnant and now postpartum. Especially this one for postpartum. No jeans will fit me.

I hate wearing pants/jeans because I'm bottom heavy and they never sit right so I either wear dresses with nice pantyhose or what I do now on most days; Flared leggings. They look like cute pants, but I can move however I want and am so comfortable, I have 5 different pairs of black flared leggings just for this reason, it looks dressed up but feels comfy. I combine these with oversized sweaters, short dresses, something a bit looser or bulkier on top and it immediately looks like a cute outfit.
Also 100% agree on the long/trenchcoat thing, they elevate almost any outfit, that's why my trenchcoat is my go-to coat.

wfh girlie here (for five years also) checking in... this is actually a video i needed.

Do not wear sweatpants in an office. Wear pleated, creased pants in wool, curderoy or cotton. JUST as comfortable.

Organic Basics is owned by Delta Galil, an Israeli company which operates in illegally occupied land (not to mention the ongoing genocide that disproportionately harms children). their claims to sustainability are hollow and hypocritical

I did the sleeping in my clothes too! Until my parents saw and said I couldnt anymore - which I thought was ridiculous and unfair!!!

I have agoraphobia and I need to think about this more. I realize I buy clothes for events that will not happen (at least not for a while) and feel too dressed up when I’m at home, at least for me (I know you can dress up at home, I just dont and it’s generally cold in my apartment so half of the year I have to wear a sweater). I feel slouchy as hell at home and when I do my errands. It also makes it easier to transition to outside when you already wear something somewhat appropriate
