I ran into a friend the other day and we both laughed at our chosen outfits – everything was pull-on, pull-over, and pull-up. She said that since Covid, she could not be bothered with buttons and zippers anymore. During Covid, I adapted a uniform of sorts – yoga pants, t-shirt, and sneakers. Every day I wore this outfit, yes I changed up the t-shirt and I have many pairs of yoga pants so the combination altered but the look did not. At some point, about a year and a half into the pandemic, my partner asked if perhaps I could put on something other than the uniform… what? You mean put on something not stretchy and lounge-worthy? Here I am years later, and I still have an aversion to regular clothes and when I look around, I am not the only one. It seems that all major clothing brands have come up with upscale loungewear that are worn as everyday clothes. I even did a Google search and found a number of sites that explain how to fashionably wear sweatpants (an oxymoron in another era). What has the fashion world come to? It’s a long way from the days of corsets that’s for sure. I sincerely wonder where we are headed, but for the time being I’m not going to fight it.
For comfort this summer might I suggest the Bria Sandal? A
great slip-on sandal with an adjustable strap across the instep for a perfect
fit. Slide on, side off – oh so easy! For jewellery this week, I have
chosen some items that will jazz up your cozy loungewear look. First, we
have the Love tokens by
Vancouver Designer Leah Alexandra –
they come in square and round and are available with a variety of chain
lengths. Next, we have the Eris and Eclipse earrings
by Toronto Design team Pursuits –
silver with Aqua glass accents – simple and stylish. Lastly, we have the True Colours collection
by Pyrrha –
the Mediterranean blue background on these talismans epitomizes summer!
