Some of you might be delighted to work from home but others may see it as a task. No matter what, you're going to be working from home for the foreseeable future, so let us embrace it.
On the upside, our commute time has vanished, but on the downside staying in your pj's makes you lazy and unproductive. While working out of the comfort of your homes can lead you to feel lethargic and unproductive, one thing that you can do to fight it is get dressed every day. A lesser-known fact is that the clothes you wear have a major effect on your mood and productivity. And no, we're not telling you to pull out your formal boardroom meeting attire but create a wardrobe that is professional yet comfortable. Cause at the end of the day when you freshen up and look good for yourself it always boosts your confidence. Here's our edit of the best work from home ensembles to keep your fashion game on point!
