As a shopping writer who works from home, business casual is a foreign concept to me. My weekday wardrobe more accurately resembles business lazy. On average, I spend Monday through Friday typing away at my laptop in a pair of sweatpants, or leggings at best.
Because my dress code is to be as comfortable as possible, it gives me a good reason to drop my clothing budget almost entirely on loungewear. Aviator Nation is my favorite for cloud-like sweatpants, while I’ve seriously got my eyes on this Vuori cotton hoodie that’s equal parts cozy and stylish. Keep scrolling to browse more athleisure styles that I’m considering for my own work-from-home wardrobe at Nordstrom.

I am all aboard the flare legging train. If you haven’t yet tried the style, this buttery soft pair from Zella is the perfect pant to introduce into your wardrobe. The high-waist design elongates your legs, while the flare makes them that much more “flattering,” according to shoppers. The pants are made of a moisture-wicking material to keep you comfortable and dry while exercising. One customer said that the leggings are “lightweight but still warm” and form-fitting without being too tight. Another person added that they are their “go-to pants for home and running errands.”
Aviator Nation Stripe Sweatpants
Nordstrom
Aviator Nation sweatpants are the number one clothing item I reach for in my closet. I have spent way too much money on my collection of cozy, cloud-like loungewear from the brand and wear it almost daily while working from home. This classic stripe pair, though expensive, is “worth the money,” according to reviewers (and me!). Shoppers said the pants are “super soft, super comfy,” and “very stylish.” The polyester, cotton, and rayon blend is so comfortable and only gets softer after each wash.
Skims Cotton Blend Fleece Crewneck Sweatshirt
Nordstrom
Say what you want about Kim Kardashian, but the reality star-turned-loungewear mogul knows how to make a cozy sweatshirt. This Skims fleece pullover has a classic silhouette and simple enough design that’s “unbelievably warm and comfy,” per customers. One shopper said they wear this style “every day” and haven’t experienced “any pilling issues.” The 70 percent cotton design is slightly oversized with a ribbed hem and cuffs that add the perfect subtle design element.
Zella Modal Half-Zip Pullover
Nordstrom
A half-zip pullover, like this Zella Modal style, is a wardrobe staple for me because it’s comfortable yet elevated. This cozy design, which comes in four different colors, has the perfect 20-inch length, a stand collar, and long sleeves with thumbhole cuffs for added protection in the cold. The drawcord-toggle hem also lets you customize the fit and length to your liking. Reviewers praised the pullover as “buttery soft,” a “great length,” and “so comfortable.” One shopper said that it “looks great alone or under a vest,” while another added that it fits “true to size” and is “very stylish.”
