You don’t have to leave the house. But you do need to feel put together and productive.
Well, I have 12 work from home outfits that you need to see.
Scroll on to strike the cozy yet well-dressed balance in your home office.
CASUAL WORK FROM HOME OUTFITS
As someone who has been working remotely for the past three years, I understand the importance of feeling both comfortable and put together. So I built these outfits to do just that.
TANK DRESS + CASHMERE CARDIGAN
A soft tank dress is an ideal wfh staple since it’s equal parts flattering and comfortable. Bonus points for this one since it has pockets. Layer with a cozy cardigan rather than that blanket on your couch.
SHELL TANK+ CROPPED PANTS + WOOL CARDIGAN
I love the versatility of a shell tank, especially a neutral-colored one. Why ponte pants? The fabric is way more flexible than denim. So opt for these if you want a polished bottom that doesn’t restrict you.
CHIC WORK FROM HOME OUTFITS
Perfect when you want your work from home clothes to exude polish while being oh-so comfortable.
SILKY BUTTON DOWN + KICK FLARE PANTS
Reviewers can’t stop mentioning how comfortable these kick flare pants are. Pair it with a silky top like this classic button-up one and complete the casual chic look.
SWEATER DRESS + QUILTED LOAFERS
I’m a devotee of one-and-done outfits. So this work from home dress is right up my alley. Keep a few dresses like this in your wfh capsule wardrobe for those mornings when you’re short on time.
TIE NECK BLOUSE + WIDE LEG PANTS
Expect compliments on your video call when you show up in this dainty silk blouse. Pair with these comfortable pleated pants for a powerful look to wear when in need of a confidence boost.
SUMMER WORK FROM HOME OUTFITS
Summer calls for chic sets and breathable fabrics. Find your new favorite fit below.
LINEN TANK TOP + LINEN PANTS
Linen is a summer favorite for its breathability. A matching set like this 100% linen tank and pants duo helps pull you together, no matter how hot it is outside.
BREATHABLE TEE + TAPERED JOGGERS
A classic white t-shirt appears in my minimalist capsule wardrobe among others. It’s so easy to pair and wear on repeat. For all-around comfort, add joggers like these buttery soft babies.

HOW CAN I LOOK STYLISH WORKING FROM HOME?
Here’s how you can effortlessly infuse style into your remote work attire:
Blend Pieces: To elevate looks, combine low-key pieces with chic ones.
For instance, pair your favorite cozy sweater with tailored pants or leggings with a knit blazer for a relaxed yet polished look.
Wear Jewelry: We stack on accessories when going out. But let’s not forget we can adorn our work from home outfits as well.
I love adding a delicate necklace or pair of drop earrings to feel instantly polished. Naked ears on a video call? No thanks.
Add Patterns: Neutrals are not the only option. Read that again. Experiment with prints and patterns to add interest and give your colleagues something to compliment on your video call.
A floral blouse, striped sweater, and even a printed accessory can transform an otherwise ordinary outfit.
Build Up Basics: How to avoid the lots of clothing, nothing to wear problem- build a collection of versatile basics that mix and match.
Think essentials like a blazer, a day dress, and a few pairs of comfy trousers. This work from home capsule wardrobe showcases the essentials.
Coordinate Clothing: Good news, sweats are not banned. Well, the stained and ripped ones are. But if you enjoy loungewear, opt for coordinated sets or stylish athleisure outfits.
