Do you love to lounge?

Wear fleece I mean 🙄

I just wear what I’m wearing till bedtime, I really couldn’t be bothered to get changed. Then again my day clothes aren’t what you’d call uncomfortable (I’m finding it hard to imagine clothes that are, really, unless you’re something like a corporate city lawyer or a pole dancer, both far from my reality). I never wear shoes indoors but don’t wear slippers either - I go barefoot in summer and keep the socks on in winter.

I’m another one who doesn’t have what you all call lounge wear.

I am also too much of a fidget to sit around for too long!

You would if you only had heat in one room 🤣

You can do an awful lot of fidgeting if only heating one room, plus of course it depends on which room you choose to heat.

I don't change into loungewear.
But then perhaps my usual day-time wear is more comfy than smart and uncomfortable.

The only time I might wear pjs and a dressing gown is if I'm feeling unwell but not ill enough to stay in bed.

Looking smart and being uncomfortable do not necessarily go together. I like to look smart - and usually do, but never, if it means wearing clothes or shoes I am uncomfortable in.

I also share your last sentence Allira. I have one fluffy track suit that I wear only on days when, as you say, I am unwell, but not ill enough to stay in bed. Mostly worn when I have migraine.

This time of year, I am in my pyjamas and dressing gown soon after 5.

If anyone comes to the door, highly unlikely, I look quite decent.

I wore formal clothing when working so always changed when I got home.

Now I spend as much time as I can in the garden, so garden type clothing until the winter when it’s just relaxed type of stuff. I am guilty however of putting on a thick dressing gown in the morning to make a cup of tea, feed the cat (😊) and birds, then not dressing until I’ve finished the housework. Which is a bit daft as my dressing gowns need too frequent washing. Must try to change that habit.

I don’t own any loungewear or pj’s either. Get up, shower, get dressed - jeans and jumper just now, then undressed at bedtime.
Who’d want to create more washing!

Jaxjacky, agree, another pile of washing at the end of the week, not for me.

I’m often in pjs and dressing gown in the evening if I have no plans. Not bothered if anyone calls unexpectedly, they just have to take me as I am.

Oh yes I couldn’t imagine sitting all evening in day clothes. I have a bath around 4pm dinner is usually in the oven by then, then fleecy pjs on. DH showers about 6pm and puts on jogging bottoms and a fleecy top.

It's not creating more washing here. I 'lounge' around in my leggings and baggy tops anyway, then usually change into my pyjamas after dinner.

ViceVersa I suppose it’s because I don’t have any nightwear to wash, so just one set of clothes in 24 hours.

I’m another who doesn’t own loungewear or PJs and I only buy comfortable clothes which I can loll around in!

I do have a nightshirt which I don when I’m ill in bed and fortunately that’s rare. My dressing gown is worn early every morning while I enjoy use of the chamberpot ☕️ then ablutions before dressing.

I've always changed from day wear to some nice comfy clothes in the evenings, even when I was young. Unless perhaps I was expecting VIP visitors! This would usually have been some jeans or tracksuit bottoms and T shirt/sloppy jumper. Now I'm "old" I put my PJs on when I get home (I still work) at about 7pm.

Yes, a little more comfortable for remaining indoors in the evenings including a release of the girls 😉

I always wear my cosy clothes (as my sister calls them), whilst indoors, which in the Winter are usually thermal leggings and a fleece top, colour co-ordinated, naturally! 😉. In the Summer it’s shorts and a t-shirt, on warm days.☀️

Leisure wear for me always, when at home. If I've been out
I change into my old fleecy things the minute I get home.

I put myself tidy if goin out but once home I’m in leggings and jumper . I prob look like a rite scruff bag but I like to be comfy

No.

I wear jeans and jumpers - comfortable clothing. I change for bed.

I'm jeans and jumper around the house. I wear a uniform in work then, change into my Jeans and stay in them. I would never think to change into Lounge wear.
I do have a couple of dressing gowns, bought manly for my Hip and Knee replacements couple of years ago but never wear them now , they will end up in a Charity bag at some stage.
If I do potter around before my morning shower I will pop on a Fleece.

Looking back , I recall how my mother , her relatives and friends got up and dressed very formally for the day .
They wouldn't have allowed anyone to have seen them without make up , a proper hairstyle, an immaculate dress or suit ,stockings and high heels.
Underneath ,they wore tight corsets .
At night ,when these foundation garments were finally peeled off - I remember the red marks on her body .
She must have been about 70 when this regid uniform was finally relinquished indoors .
Shame faced ,my mother described it as letting herself go .

What exactly is “loungewear”? I thought the OP was referring to cosy comfy clothes to relax in, eg. jeans, leggings, jumpers etc., not clothes specifically designed for the purpose. I didn’t know there was such a thing a thing.

I get showered and dressed immediately I get up then I like to think I look tidy all day. I don’t possess any loungewear. I always think someone might come to the door or that I may have to pop out somewhere although it rarely happens. I would never be downstairs wearing pyjamas.

Something like this.
I have something like this but it’s only for long haul flights.
My daughter has as many lounging clothes as she has daywear.

If someone comes to my door, then they have to take me as I am. Comfort is top priority for me. I would never have described jeans as being 'comfy', although I haven't been able to wear anything with a fixed waistband for years, thanks to medical issues.
