1. Joggers (with pockets!) that are just begging to become part of your cozy winter hibernation plans — they're stretchy, smooth against the skin, and simply a must-have loungewear piece.
Promising review: "When I ordered them I expected them to be thick. I wanted something warm for my winter workouts in my garage. They are way thinner than I expected but are surprisingly super warm. Not see through at all. And the feel is amazing. I love the material. I ordered both black and tye dye. I’ll deff be ordering more! If you want a super tight feel like leggings order down a size. But medium fit me perfectly with lots of room to move around, and so far no issues with waistband sliding down." —lacie Marie like
Get them from Amazon for $28.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and 17 colors).
2. High-waisted leggings, because structured pants are *not* welcome to join in on your lazy day plans. Sorry, not sorry.
Promising review: "If you’re on the fence about buying these leggings, DO IT. I bought a black pair (plus size) to see how they’d fit and let me tell you! I have wide hips, big thighs, and a large behind, and these leggings fit perfectly! Even better, THEY ARE NOT SEE-THROUGH when I bend over!! I’ve *never* found leggings that weren’t sheer when I bent over before! I bought eight more in different colors and they all are the same quality! I love them so much that over a year later I bought two more black pairs!! I recommend these leggings to everyone I hear talking about the difficulties of finding good leggings. I swear I wear these to work three times a week, at least. I love them!!" —hali howard
Get them from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in one standard size and one plus size, 3 lengths, and 22 colors/patterns).
3. A two-piece lounge set worth investing your hard earned dollars on — once the weekend rolls around you're going to want to live in the utmost comfort. This set will certainly check that box.
Promising review: "This is a cute and comfortable two-piece set. The fit was as expected, and these pieces could easily be worn for travel or just lounging around the house. They washed up nicely, but I wouldn't recommend putting them in the dryer due to possible shrinkage." —H. Brien
Get it from Amazon for $51.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 35 colors).
4. Sweater pants, because why should your arms and torso have all the fun??? Let your legs join in on the coziness by enveloping them in these bad boys.
Promising review: "SO COMFY. These pants are literally so amazing and such an awesome material...It’s a nice comfy brunch outfit or lounge outfit...they’re my favorite pair to wear right now." –Kyrene Galanis
Get them from Amazon for $31.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 10 colors).
5. A drawstring jumpsuit, perfect for anyone who wants to lounge *most* of the day but also has a handful of errands to run. When the cute cashier at CVS starts checking *you* out while you're checking out, you can thank me.
Promising review: "Originally, I wanted a comfy outfit for air travel and bought this before my last trip to Mexico. As soon as I put it on, I fell in love with it. I now live in it. It's comfortable and fits perfectly. I will be purchasing more!" —Meg Fanslow
Get it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 12 colors and styles).
6. An oversized crewneck sweater you can comfortably wear with leggings on busy WFH mornings where you want to feel cozy but still be a little dressed in case you have to hop on a Zoom call.
I bought this sweater and it's fantastic — super stretchy but cozy at the same time. I've been wearing it with leggings (the medium is long enough on me, I'm a little over 5 feet tall) but can totally see wearing it with jeans as well! It's washed beautifully (no pilling) and I will definitely buy more colors.
Promising review: "This is a great loose fitting sweater. So comfortable. Great to lounge around the house in sweats or throw on some leggings or jeans and run errands. I wear it a lot." —Michelle S.
Get it from Amazon for $42.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 32 styles).
7. A fuzzy three-piece loungewear set reviewers have praised as being delightfully similar to Skims. (Apologies, Kim K!) A must-have if you want to test run the style before potentially treating yourself to the real thing — or just another set of these in another color!
Promising review: "This is by far the best money spent on clothing! I love this outfit, it's so comfortable! I will say the tag was a bit itchy on the top piece so I had to cut it off, but otherwise 20/10. This outfit is what I treat myself to on my self-care days and relaxing moments. Personally, I don't think I'd wear it out and about, but around the house it is just so perfect! And what I look like in my own house doesn't matter, but my comfort definitely does!" —Wendy
Get the three-piece set from Amazon for $53.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 30 styles).
Psst: This is included in Prime Wardrobe, so you can give it a trial run if you're a member!
8. Or a similar option from Aerie featuring a button down marshmallow cardigan and coordinating pants you'll want to live in forever — they're seriously that soft.
I snagged this set for my sister for the holidays and, wow, it is VERY soft. You simply can't go wrong with a lounge set from Aerie.
Promising review (for the cardigan): "This is a keeper. So soft and cozy, incredibly warm on even windy cold days, and it’s cute, casual and subtly sexy all at once! Love love love." —Kevinsgirl35
Get them from Aerie: cardigan for $46.80 (available in sizes XS–2XL and two colors), pants for $37.46 (available in sizes S–XL and three colors).
9. Richer Poorer recycled sweats, because everyone should have *at least* one pair of ridiculously comfortable sweatpants in their lineup.
You can make it a matching set with this recycled fleece sweatshirt.
Here's more from my colleague Emma Lord:
"Before these sweatpants, I had three rotating sweatpants that each had, like, One Good Thing about them, but weren't overall great. After I got these Richer Poorer sweatpants, I straight up got rid of all the others, because this pair has it all. I'm talking ridiculously soft fabric on the inside, and — be still my millennial heart — the aforementioned POCKETS. I tend not to go outside in sweatpants, but I do occasionally have to run down to the lobby of my building to pick up deliveries, and these make me feel very ~sweatpants chic~ (and the deep pockets are truly appreciated for holding things like my phone and keys and face masks). I can tell these are going to be a favorite of mine for a loooong, long time (unless I end up getting it in other colors, in which case it might tie for my favorite with those, lolol)."
Get it from Richer Poorer for $76 (available in sizes XS–L and eight colors).
10. Colorful leggings with side pockets (!!!) you can keep your phone in — so when you *finally* settle in to work comfortably on the couch you won't wonder "where is my phone?" and then, begrudgingly, get up to go search for it.
Promising review: "These leggings are AMAZING! Not only are they soft, comfortable, and squatproof, but they look so good on! I have a hard time finding leggings that are big enough around the thighs/butt area but fitting enough around the waistline. I can’t believe the price and the fact that my new favorite leggings are from Amazon." —MLK
Get them from Amazon for $29+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 29 colors).
11. An oversized pullover V-neck sweater made of a cozy waffle knit material you won't be able to get enough of — it'll look just as cute with leggings at home as it will with your fave pair of denim.
Promising review: "This is my new favorite go-to top for ANY occasion. I bought it to wear with heels and distressed jeans out with my fiancé, however the day turned into us and our daughter heading to a Mexican restaurant so I simply changed from heels to my Birkenstocks and it was just as cute. I’m buying every color. LOVE THIS SHIRT!" –Katie
Get it from Amazon for $26.99+ (available in sizes S–2XL and in a variety of colors).
12. Novelty socks that'll adorably hold hands when you click your heels together — who needs ruby slippers when you can kick your feet up and relax with these cuties?
Promising review: "My sister and I have had so much fun with these socks!!! They are super cute and the magnetic hold really well. The magnets are a bit big so you do notice them but overall super fun and cute." —addison fullmer
Get it from Amazon for $9.98 (available three styles and sets of four).
13. Or regular ol' cushioned crew socks to encourage you to kick back, put your feet up, indulge in some vino and relax a bit after a long work week.
Promising review: "I love socks and am also very picky about socks. These socks checked all my boxes! They're comfortable socks, they're thick but not too thick, and I wear them all the time. I will be coming back to order some more soon!!" —Abi Tamburro
Get a pack of 10 from Amazon for $19+ (fits women's sizes 6–12).
14. A crewneck that'll help you express your entire mood — a skeleton sippin' on some coffee. It's just as relatable as it is comfortable!
Promising review: "I bought this shirt oversized. But I was surprised at how soft this crew neck was! Graphic has held up after many washes." —Jillydukez
Get it from Amazon for $31.99 (available in unisex sizes S–2XL and five colors).
15. A pair of plush slippers to protect your feet from the ice-like tiled floors in your home while also letting you show off your fresh pedicure.
Promising review: "The coziest, softest slippers ever! And adorable! Great rubber traction on the bottom. Yet, soft and lightweight." —Lauren Fuquay
Get them from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in sizes 5–10, including narrow sizes, and 14 colors).
16. A two-piece set, so you can look put together without actually having to think about whether what you're throwing on matches. You're welcome.
Promising review: "For those of you who like to go to Walmart in your PJs and flannel pants, order this set! You will still be comfy but look great. These sets are lightweight but not see-through. True to size without fitting skintight. Extremely comfortable and versatile. Dress it up or down." —-Mimi-
Get it from Amazon for $38.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 39 colors).
17. A cropped sweater tank and shorts set that's exactly what you'd find pictured next to the definition of "cozy" in the dictionary. You can also complete the look with a matching cardigan!
Promising reviews: "Very cute and comfortable! Thicker material versus some other sets. Top is short but the bottoms are high cut and flexible so they fit together well!" —C. Larson
"This is the perfect sweater set! I love that the top and cardigan can be worn separately or with other pieces, making it super versatile. Each piece washed well and is very soft and comfortable. Would definitely buy in another color. Also, I sized up in the knit tank so that it fits less like a bra top and it ended up being a perfect crop!" —Nicole Thibou
Get the set from Amazon: $34.90+ (for the tank; available in sizes 2XS–5XL and eight colors) and $39.90+ (for the shorts; available in sizes 2XS–5XL and in eight colors).
Psst: This is included in Prime Wardrobe, so you can give it a trial run if you're a member!
18. An oversized Disney Villains tee to add a little magic into your work-from-home look — and not just for spooky season!
I made the mistake of ordering this *too* oversized last year (I gave it to my father-in-law, it was THAT big) but it was so soft I never stopped thinking about it. I re-ordered it this year in a medium and now it's perfect! I also influenced one my coworkers into buying it for a quick jaunt to Disneyland. It's a fabulous loungewear option that'll pair nicely with bike shorts, leggings, or jeans.
Promising review: "If you’re a diehard Disney fan this shirt is a must. It’s so hard to find Disney villain shirts and this one is incredible. So many villains packed in and so colorful. The shirt is soft. Wear it all the time" —MCmom
Get it from Target for $14 (available in men's sizes S–2XL).
19. High-waisted leggings from Aerie's Offline collection, aka my holy grail, wear-every-single-day, absolute favorite pair of leggings. They're stretchy, soft, and perfect for both working out or hanging out. I simply adore them.
During the first year of working from home, I made it a personal goal to find the BEST black leggings of all time. The GOAT of leggings. And for me, after trying countless pairs, Aerie's are IT! I own several black pairs and love that they come in short lengths! A game changer for me! I also wore them throughout my entire pregnancy (I just sized up) and was perfectly content, they seemed to stretch along with me. These are the most affordable of all the leggings I've tried and loved — I simply cannot recommend them enough.
Get them from Aerie for $26.97 (available in sizes 2XS–2XL, in regular, long, and short lengths, and nine colors).
20. An oversized knit cardigan in an array of gorgeous colors — ideal if you're someone who *waffles* between being too hot and too cold and loves nothing more than a go-to layering option.
Promising review: "I have these cardigans in three different colors, need I say more? They are thick and heavy, which I like because I bought them for winter, but since it’s cotton, I feel like they will be comfortable in spring and fall too. They keep their shape and quality after washing. For sizing comparison, I have them in S, and I usually wear US S in tops." —Anonimous
Get it from Amazon for $42.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 30 colors).
21. A hoodie and joggers set inspired by Jasmine's pants from Aladdin to make you feel like a Disney Princess even if you're only planning to listen to the soundtracks while you power through work emails.
Art Care Shop is an Ann Arbor, Michigan-based small business that makes stylish and comfy "basics" that are actually anything but.
Promising review: "Sooo, I’m obsessed with this. I have it in blue lavender and charcoal now, and both are perfect! The material is so soft and plush and warm (like, impressively high quality), and I love the high-waisted pants! I don’t remember how I found this shop, but I’m so glad I did. Also — I ended up exchanging sizes, and it was the easiest exchange of my life! And shipping is always super quick!" —Caroline Morris
Get it from Art Care Shop on Etsy for $120 (available in sizes XS–XL and seven colors).
22. A floral pullover because, just like our girl Miley, you can (and should) buy yourself flowers — even if they're in the form of loungewear.
Tee Atelier is a small business based in Dublin that sells playfully and beautifully designed apparel.
Promising review: "Wonderful sweatshirt! Vivid colors, beautiful design, super soft, and really fast shipping. Thank you!" —Stacey
Get it from Tee Atelier on Etsy for $32.42 (available in sizes S–3XL and five colors).
23. A pullover sweatshirt that'll become a staple in your wardrobe faster than you can say "cozy." It comes in *so* many colors you can absolutely stock up on 'em. (Who wants to do laundry???)
Promising review: "I can't stop buying more and more of these sweaters. I am not joking, they are the most comfy thing ever. Make sure to wash on a cold, gentle cycle and tumble dry low so it stays softer for longer. It is the PERFECT lazy day comfy outfit. Couldn't recommend more. Going to get everyone one for the holidays." —Caroline Cycon
Get it from Amazon for $34.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 26 colors).
24. An oversized hot pink tee Swifties and book lovers will not be able to contain their excitement over — pair it with some leggings and fuzzy slippers for the coziest reading 'fit around.
Bookshelf Tees is a woman-owned small business that creates book and pop culture–themed apparel and stickers. I personally placed an order as a gift for my bestie and cannot wait to finally give it to her! I also ordered a sticker for myself and it's so freakin' cute. I'm going to have a very hard time not ordering a shirt for myself from here in the very near future.
Get it from Bookshelf Tees for $32 (available in unisex sizes S–4XL).
25. A padded tank so you can go about your day bra-free — which sounds like an absolute dream, TBH. It'll provide you with enough support and layer beautifully under your go-to oversize cardi.
Check out this activewear essential on TikTok here.
Promising review: "Honestly saw this on TikTok and contemplated getting it for a long time. I’m so glad I committed! It’s extremely comfortable. The padding is amazing so you don’t have to worry about a bra underneath at all. You can wear it with sweats or leggings to the gym or even dress it up for a night out. Considering more colors for sure!" —Kristyn Long
Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 20 colors).
26. A tonal pullover that'll delight anyone who loves a black-on-black moment in addition to the not-so-subtle call out of how they're living their life these days (ahem, a world filled with caffeine and chaos).
River Babe Threads is a woman-owned small business based in Michigan that sells handmade items and original designs. When I had my baby, my sister and I bought matching "caffeine and chaos" sweatshirts and also bought a coordinating shirt for him to grow into (it, fittingly, says "I'm the chaos"). It's super soft and comfortable, and I love that the style feels a bit more stylish than most of my other pullovers. I've absolutely been running around in it all winter and will likely all year.
Get it from River Babe Threads for $25 (available in unisex sizes S–3XL).
27. A matching sweat set for a coordinated cozy vibe you can happily rock whether you're splayed out on your couch with your laptop or running errands at Tar-jay.
Promising review: "Got this set to sleep in for the winter. The material is very comfortable and soft on the skin and not irritating at all. The stitches were flawless and looks exactly like the picture. I actually wore the sweats outside with another top and I was feeling fine the whole day." —Kesha Follz
Get it from Amazon for $42.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 20 colors).
28. An oversized pullover for anyone who is passionate about ranch and refuses to eat a single meal without a lil' dipping action. Even Taylor Swift apparently likes her chicken fingers "with ketchup and seemingly ranch" hehehe.
BFFs and Babes is a woman-owned small business that sells customized apparel for both adults and kiddos — I have so many beloved items from them that I've truly lost count. If ranch isn't your thing, check out the rest of their "Sips & Snacks" collection.
Get it from BFFs and Babes for $54 (available in unisex sizes S–3XL and two colors).
29. Girlfriend Collective Ultramarine FLOAT Ultralight Legging in a playful color that'll give your boring black leggings a run for their money — move over neutrals, these vibrant pants are about to crash your chill day.
These babies have been designed to feel like you're wearing nothing — does it get more comfortable than that?
Promising review: "These are so comfortable! So light and such good quality. They are extremely soft and stretchy and basically feels like I’m not wearing anything! The seam at the waist is a little tighter than I was expecting but it’s not uncomfortable. Not tight like compressive but I can still do a CrossFit workout in them and they stay on. I also just traveled 30 hours by plane in them and was so comfy the whole time! Love the FLOAT collection." —Antonia C.
Get it from Girlfriend Collective for $78 (available in sizes 2XS–6XL, two inseams, and three colors).
30. An oversize linen jumpsuit you'll absolutely treasure — wear it to the farmers market, to scrub your floors, or grab coffee with a friend. We love a versatile optionnnnn!
Promising review: "These are too perfect for words. I'll be buying the other colors as soon as possible! They are super comfortable and extremely versatile. They're great for yard work, casual events, cute swimsuit coverup, and more. These are going to get so much wear!" —Cara
Get it from Amazon for $24.29+ (available in sizes S–4X and in nine colors).
31. Cozy slippers that'll put a smile on your face and your feet — kick back, relax, and let the world know you're taking a much-needed break.
I've had these slippers for over a year and I love them! They're soft, fit well, and keep my toes warm. What more could you want from a pair of slippers?
Promising review: "Oh my goodness!!!!!! I have been looking for a cute/ comfortable pair of slippers to wear around the house! I don’t know why I waited this long to get these. The material is so soft and the cushion is amazing. And the color is on point. They also run true to size. I will be purchasing in other colors as well." —Kaitlin Garcia
Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in women's sizes 6.5–9.5 and six styles).
32. Lounge pants you'll wonder why you've decided to live so long without — they're buttery soft and will be the perfect companion to your next snuggle sesh.
Promising review: "These pants are amazingggg. I was hesitant after trying a few similar styles that were super sheer but lemme tell you, you won’t regret this purchase! Super soft, wash really well (cold on delicate, I don’t put them in the dryer), and wear even better." —JWH
Get it from Amazon for $31.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and ten colors).
33. A pet pouch hoodie to help you *finally* win over your cat who typically prefers to scowl at you while they lounge on their own. They simply won't be able to resist the warm pocket and cute pom poms — snuggle season is HERE, friends.
"The picture and gif above are of my cat Blair, who loves my husband so much more than she loves me. I bought this in an attempt to get her to snuggle up with me instead of him. This sweater works, folks! This has also made working from home a lot easier as she'll chill out in the pocket instead of insisting on using my keyboard as a bed. Win, win, WIN!" —BuzzFeed Writer, Mallory Mower
Promising review: "This is very cute. The color is vibrant and the size is technically very true. I say this only because the material is not stretchy AT ALL! Not that it ruins the sweatshirt! I think the stiffer fabric makes your pet more comfort in the pouch. The removable pouch liner is awesome!!! I took it out, seamed it a bit smaller, then put it back in. My pup is TINY and couldn't even reach the top of the pouch! Once I seamed it he can see out but still cuddle down in for warmth. As he grows I can adjust the seam size! All in all this is an AWESOME sweater that I will be buying in other colors!" —Carrie Parker
Get it from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in six colors and sizes S–3XL).
34. A pair of fleece-lined jeggings for anyone who prefers the look of jeans but absolutely detests cold weather — these will give ya the best of both worlds.
Promising review: "Quality is fantastic. Fits exactly to size indicated. I'm always cold, and I'm in love with these jeans. Not bulky...in fact, they look fantastic on. I've bought five different pairs in various styles and colors." —Debbie L Morawski
Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in sizes 2XS–5XL and 36 colors).
35. An oversized vintage-inspired NFL sweatshirt featuring your favorite (or least favorite, depending on the week) football team — it's so unbelievably soft you'll never want to take it off.
I had been debating ordering one of these since last year and *finally* did at the start of the 2023 NFL season. I'm here to tell you...it's worth it. Add it to your cart, impatiently wait for it to arrive, then throw it on and ENJOY. It is truly so soft — I couldn't believe it. I bought it essentially because I liked the design, so the softness of the fabric was a big, lovely surprise.
Promising review: "This is luxury. The perfect football Sunday cozy sweatshirt. Absolutely worth the price. It runs oversized, I almost got a M because I like my sweatshirts huge but glad I stuck to my true size." —Dana
Get it from Abercrombie & Fitch for $90 (available in unisex sizes XS–2XL and 37 styles).
36. A duvet-like house coat from Casper that'll make you feel like you're walking the runway in the latest of comfy-cozy fashions. Apologies to your regular loungewear, you may never want to put it on again.
BuzzFeed writer Mallory Mower is a big fan, she wrote:
"I am wrapped up in this delightful 'duvet' at this very moment! This is officially my favorite splurge-worthy gift. It's the sort of thing people don't automatically know about, which make you seem *very* in-the-know. Plus, it feels like wearable luxury! I've never owned anything cozier. That's an actual fact."
Get it from Casper for $152.10 (originally $169; available in three sizes and colors).
37. Silky-smooth fleece-lined leggings reviewers often compare to Lululemon (aka the ROYALTY of leggings). They have deep pockets, so no need to worry about carrying your phone around in your hand all the live long day.
Promising review: "These fleece-lined leggings are perfect for the chilly fall mornings. Was definitely pleased with the fit and the softness, love the pockets, seem to be high quality. Good value for the price." —Kindle Customer
Get them from Amazon for $18.99+ (available in sizes XS–2XL and also available in three- and five-packs in various colors).
38. And, of course, an over-sized blanket sweatshirt to keep you company while you hibernate/watch television.
I gifted one of these to my sister and she is OBSESSED. Her and my other sister have actually been fighting so much over it that I need to order another one. It's so freakin' soft and snuggly they'll never want to take it off! The Comfy comes from a small business!
Promising review: "My teenage son lives in sweatpants and a sweatshirt when he's home. Even in the summer. He loves to be comfy so I knew this would be perfect. I was right. He has yet to take it off in the past few days!" —amoretto
Get it from Amazon for $49.99 (available in 10 styles).
