Confession: when it comes to comfy clothes, the majority of our bits are from Penneys.
You have to hold on to your money for things like going out clothes, nice basics like jeans and tees, the odd handbag or shoe splurge – the list goes on.
We’re not about to splash serious cash on the sort of stuff we wear around the house of a lazy Sunday because there’s a strong chance it’ll get covered in crisp crumbs anyway.
We spotted style queen Holly Willoughby in a luxury tracksuit recently that we liked the look of, but we just couldn’t make peace with the price.
The rainbow-stripe ensemble is by high-end brand Madeleine Thompson Cashmere.
The top is sold out (thanks to Holly, probably) but we tracked down the bottoms on ShopBop for €121.85.
Not exactly in our comfy loungewear budget, then, but we’ve come across a similar pair of bottoms on Nasty Gal.
They’re fairly identical to Holly’s ones and at €38, they’re a good bit cheaper too. No, they’re not cashmere, but feck it. You take what you can get.
They’re kind of fancy enough that you’d get away with them for a night out with a crop top or bodysuit which is handy because, to be fair, who the hell could relax at home in a pair of pristine white pants?
