Hey, fashionistas! It is now day 76 of quarantine… at least that’s what it feels like. Who else has been extremely bored at home with absolutely nothing to do?! This past couple of days felt like it has been merging on an endless loop at this point. My days are kind of like a routine… (If I don’t have class..) waking up at practically noon, showering, eating breakfast at nearly two in the afternoon, trying out these new Tic Toc dances (cringy.. I know), working on a boatload of homework, and finally getting to bed around two in the morning… then repeat it all over again the next day. Since we’ve all been trapped in our homes this past couple of days I really don’t find it necessary to “dress up” just to sit in my living room. So today’s blog is dedicated to some of the simple and cozy quarantine looks I’ve been rocking!
Look 1: Can’t get any more basic than this…
Alright, so the first look you’d catch me in is the most basic look you could think of. A pair of black leggings and an oversized white tee. Since I only packed a few outfits to come back home with (not knowing we wouldn’t be going back to school) this set is my go-to. This is a perfect outfit to just throw on and lounge around the house in after a warm steamy shower.
Look 2: Jammies…
One thing I like about classes being switched to remote learning is the fact that I can stay in bed while signing onto zoom for class. When I was at school it was pretty hard for me to get up and get ready for early classes since at school I barely slept due to the amount of homework I’d be given… but now, I can stay in my warm and comfy bed while still learning and getting my work done. For those lazy days, I could honestly sit around in my pajamas for the whole day and not have a problem with it one bit. My favorite set of jammies to lounge in is this really cute satin two-piece set I got from… yup, you guessed it… Fashion Nova!
Look 3: What’s stopping us from working out now…
So I’m not sure about the rest of you but for me, I always say I’m going to start working out and eating healthy so I can finally have that “summer body.” But something always comes up, or I just don’t feel like working out so I push it for another day. However, now that we’re stuck in the house with literally nothing to do, I have no excuses now. My next look is simple activewear. I just throw on a pair of gym shorts and a long-sleeve quarter-zip shirt. Putting this outfit on motivates me a little bit more to actually start working out… at least at some point in the day.
Look 4: “Socks and sandals… (what what what!)”
If you don’t know where the phrase “socks and sandals (what what what!)” came from, I used to watch this show with my cousins growing up called, “Sonny with a Chance” and two of the main characters used to wear socks with sandals all the time and they made a rap song about it. I found it relatable because my cousins and I are always wearing socks and sandals when we’re just lounging around in the house. If you lived in Beaver Hall and happened to walk around on the fifth floor, you would see me walking around in this very comfortable yet funny looking piece.
(Btw- This is the show im referring to:))
My go to has been jammies and work out clothes for sure! I also did not bring a lot from school so I am stuck in sweats, hoodies and leggings. Hopefully we can rock some other clothes soon!
I don’t know why but I loveeee the first ‘basic’ look. I just think it’s so trendy and comfortable – and what’s better that being cute and comfy?!
The workout gear is definitely something I’ll hang in my wardrobe to motivate to do one sit up and a half.
