In a post-COVID world, work-from-home days are more common than ever. Even if you're technically back in the office, there are hybrid schedules, plus anytime someone gets sick it's a whole new ballgame. Plus, so many of us are back at home full-time, with no return to office in sight. So what does that mean, aside from the fact that we're out of homemade lunch ideas? We need some new WFH outfits to add to the rotation.
The days of rolling from bed into our first Zoom meeting, PJs still on, are behind us. It's time to get a little more polished — while still being completely comfortable, of course — while working from home. Ahead, we've pulled together 11 of the best work-from-home outfits to wear from your home office, the couch, or wherever you're setting up shop these days.
Relaxed Pants and a White Tee

Take a cue from Jennifer Lawrence's excellent street style look and pair easy, loose-fitting black trousers with a soft white tee. It's a classic combo you can't go wrong with — and if you need a quick hair fix, a baseball hat always does the trick.
Jeans and a Cardigan

You may have more control over your home office than a real one, but that doesn't mean you can't layer to your heart's desire. Whether you tend to get chilly no matter the temperature or you like the added professional vibe of a third piece, a cozy cardigan like Katie Holmes's is perfect with just about every look, even a simple tee and jeans.
Dressed-Up Leggings

One of the best things about working from home is that you can run straight from your workout to your 9 A.M. meeting or take a 30-minute Peloton class during lunch. For maximum gym-to-work versatility, wear sleek leggings and a mock-neck sweatshirt like Sofia Richie Grainge's, which looks a little more put-together than any old crewneck.

Sweater vests are the perfect hybrid between professional and easy to wear; throw one on with jeans, linen pants, or leggings and you've got a meeting-worthy look in seconds that feels like sweats.
A Sweatshirt and High-Waisted Pants

To give your comfiest black sweatshirt a bit of fashion-y zhush, half-tuck it into a pair of high-waisted jeans.
A Soft T-Shirt Dress

A T-shirt dress is the ultimate can't-think-about-it, comfy one-piece outfit. If you want to ensure it reads as a put-together outfit on Zoom, you can layer on necklaces or tie on a silk scarf.
A Button-Down and White Pants
Of course, we'd warn you to be careful around food that will stain, but even if you have a mishap, the rest of your closet is nearby.
A Button-Down and Flowy Pants
If your goal is to to spice things up, leave your shirt unbuttoned and wrap it around your body instead. Then, keep it in place with the help of a ribbon or a mid-section belt.
Jeans and a T-Shirt
You can't beat the classics. If you still feel like your outfit is missing a little something, layer a button-down, jacket, or blazer over your shirt.
A Button-Down and Baggy Jeans
This one requires very little effort and looks even better when paired with a beret.
A Turtleneck and Leggings
Another win for the comfy-athleisure vibe. This combo is also cool if you're going for a monochromatic look.
