Iโve definitely been on a loungewear kick lately, as I quickly realized that most of my wardrobe was not conducive to long days at home.ย
Some of my favorite new pieces are by Saturday/Sunday, Anthropologieโs super soft loungewear line, and LIVI, Lane Bryantโs activewear line that also makes some excellent athleisure pieces, like the tie dye joggers I like so much I bought in both colors.
ย Iโve also been shopping the major sales that are happening now to get pieces for dreamy future looks, like a faux leather double-breasted blazer that I just got for fall.

I am currently shopping swimwear and athletic wear.
I am shopping for swim with brands like Lane Bryant, Torrid, ASOS, CurvyFox and SHEIN.
Currently obsessed with Fabletics so I am getting most of my athletic wear from them.

So, I originally decided I wasnโt going to do any shoppingโฆbut then I realized I โneededโ a few things from Eloquii and H&M.
I am looking forward to sitting in my backyard in one of the cotton H&M dressesโฆeventually.
If I were to purchase anything else it would be athleisure, something soft and stretchy. Iโve been WFH for years, so half my wardrobe is comfy clothes.
Iโve been living in my Evelyn & Bobbie wire free bra. Itโs incredibly comfortable and supportive, itโs hard to imagine ever wearing an underwire again!
One of the things Iโm checking, as I buy in the future, is how a brand treats their employees during the pandemic. I donโt want to support a brand that didnโt support their employees.ย

Right Iโm looking for comfort pieces and makeup. I donโt usually have cute pjs (opting for the old t-shirt method) but being at home so often I chose to invest in some cute pjs from loft and pieces I can pair with anything like Foundations from Universal Standard.
I want to still make an effort- even if it only for zoom.
Also, Iโve never been a huge make up person. Often choosing quick easy basic products to make sure my shoots look good. But having so much down time, I have started investing in eye shadowย palettes to experiment with colors and fun!
I now have all the time to BLEND LIKE THE GODS and YouTube/Tiktok has an abundance of tips to make sure I look good.

Iโve found myself shopping for the most comfortable loungewear. Itโs perfect for the current social distancing situation.
Iโve also taken advantage of some sales to stock up on bras from Lane Bryant.
My final splurge was a pair of retro looking sneakers from Sketchers, theyโre so cute!

I am finding myself shopping for things that bring my joy. Although Pride has gone virtual, I am still on the hunt for cute rainbow pieces to wear to celebrate form home.
I love the new Rainbow collection from ELOQUII. I have also been shopping for swimwear.
Although I donโt know when it will be safe to go to the beach or public pool, I definitely plan on lounging in the backyard and soaking in a blow-up pool.
I grabbed a rainbow swimsuit from ModCloth and a Chromat suit from 11 Honore that Iโve been eyeing forever.ย I also grabbed a few suits for the cheap from Boohoo!
