Ever thought how much easier and more comfortable daily life would be if you could just wear your favorite comfy t-shirt or cozy sweater everywhere? The fashion industry is notorious for pushing us to sacrifice our comfort to look "good." As the times are changing, though, so is this trend. Fashion psychologist Shakaila Forbes-Bell told Marie Claire, "The pandemic has caused a shift in the way people engage with their clothing." She explained that as people started spending more time at home, the lack of social feedback encouraged more of a "focus on how clothes made us feel rather than their aesthetic value."
Thankfully for many, this trend isn't expected to go anywhere soon. "The need to not only be physically comfortable but psychologically comfortable in what we wear will likely remain as people have come to realize that clothing can be used as a tool to aid cognitive processing and general well-being," Forbes-Bell explained. Even if you've gone back to the office, you may still be looking for ways to keep comfort a priority — and that's entirely possible.
We sat down with two style pros – Danielle Cafeiro, wardrobe consultant, fashion stylist, and owner of Styled by Danielle, and Abigail Valentine, personal stylist and owner of Joy & the Valentine – to bring you all the tips and tricks to dress up your most comfy pieces for work, dates, or any other occasion.
