Gone are the days of lounging around in your PJs, especially because the best loungewear for women exists. Yes, loungewear might feature the comfort of a pair of pyjamas, but these cosy pieces can be just as chic as the articles in your everyday wardrobe.
Whether it's a pair of flared black leggings and a co-ordinating slouchy top that you can wear while you're WFH, or an oversized borg hoodie to curl up in on the couch - loungewear has to be, without a doubt, our favourite type of clothing.
Throw on a loungewear set under a camel coat with a pair of UGG Tasmans and you've got a versatile outfit to wear outdoors. At the end of the day, when Netflix is calling your name, you can kick back wearing your comfy co-ord as you binge-watch your fave show.
Could it honestly get any better than that?
We won't lie, we're taking some major inspiration from Michelle Keegan's outfits, and her latest Very collection when it comes to cosy, wearable pieces that can be worn both as loungewear and everyday outfits. Michelle is giving us a lesson in styling out some seriously comfortable staples that we want to live in for the foreseeable.
So, when it comes to the best loungewear for women? Think as snug as wearing your duvet outside blended with chic, minimalistic colour-blocking co-ords. Ready to step up your game with an elevated set? Here's the best loungewear for women, as chosen by a self-confessed loungewear addict.

FAQs
What are the most stylish loungewear pieces to wear for everyday?
Depending on what you're looking for in terms of loungewear, a huge oversized onesie might not be the most wearable for running everyday errands. While you might want to save this for the couch, coordinating knitwear pieces in neutral colours such as oatmeal, cream, brown and grey might be a place to start.
Ribbed trousers and ribbed tops are cosy, chic and timeless capsule pieces that you can wear separately, or dress up or down, making them a fantastic choice for everyday loungewear that you can wear outdoors. Style with a pair of UGGs or trainers to pull your outfit together. You could also wear a knitted midi skirt and a cardigan if you prefer, as this style of outfit can be dressed up with a pair of heels for an occasion. Turn to Molly-Mae Hague or Michelle Keegan for inspiration.
Alternatively, tracksuits are another brilliant option that can be styled as sporty athleisure wear. Frankie Bridge appears to be a fan of this style lately. Team with a baseball cap or headband, a pair of trainers and a long puffer coat for the ultimate off-duty look.
