I always make sure I have one comfortable pair of sweat pants for home and relaxing and my top sweat pants are Roots. The nice thing about these sweatpants is they usually run a little larger and I can sometimes rely on an XL instead!

I have found that I can luckily rely on a quality pair of jeans from penningtons and I am happy that I have a set from this store! I have a clearance pair that is more like comfort jogger but I do recommend getting yourself a pair

Whether it is for comfort at home or for going out in confidence, I oddly find that I enjoy H&M's crop tops

Great white work blouses that although expensive are worth it. Some of the tops are a hit and some are a miss (I cannot with skull tops I am sorry)

I really enjoy the quality of the pennington tank tops and are great for folks who run a little on the hot side and flattering for our tummies

This shirt in black is my favourite shirt I own currently. The fabric is so gorgeous and can be both a lounge/ pj top but a work top! HIGH recommend
