What do you wear outside of the workplace ?

Do you and your colleagues share an interest in streetwear outside of work? I personally love Miu Miu and YSL, including some EÉRA jewelry but I feel like majority of men keep it casual even after work. Do you have some cool pieces you wear when you go out?

If going somewhere public, intending to meet someone or do something out? Pretty lax, usually a t-shirt/polo and khakis, white sneakers of the sort. Winter is usually variations of the same 'type' - maybe a bomber or hoodless zip-up over a hoodie, thicker jeans and/or khakis, but rarely in winter. Have some stylish sweats if you can believe that, all from active loungewear companies like Lulu or something similar. 

But, besides that? I strictly wear said loungewear, just toned down. Hoodies & sweatpants, the second I get home. Nothing better than changing out of work clothes, and for errand-running or various activities I won't change when I pop out of the house for a bit. I'll look as presentable as I need to be - by that, I literally just mean showering, shaving, combing hair & moisturizing my face. That's it.

I will say that regardless of a cost-analysis-basis, those uppity brands make a huge difference in comfort. When Lulu just became mainstream, I honestly scoffed at the idea of buying $90 sweatpants. Nowadays, it's literally all I own - maybe fewer individual pieces, but the quality of the fabric is just impossible to go back from. Brooklinen, Pangaia, Uniqlo, Bandier, and Rhone are all in my daily rotation and I cannot recommend that enough. 

Side note - honestly never got the whole 'designer wear' thing. I think it can be cool when executed properly, but just not for me. I hate logos, love the subtle look. See no reason for my body to be a billboard for some company, but hey - just one man's opinion!

 

Suscipit ut perspiciatis id vel. Quas deleniti saepe sint sed laborum.
