Lounging around in style
Layered up in loungewear
It might have something to do with my age but I love staying in. Hibernating is particularly enjoyable at this time of year. Fortunately, for my latest collaboration with UNIQLO, the brand asked me to focus on their loungewear, sweatshirts and joggers. And so, what I wear at home has just had a serious upgrade. It only seems like a small improvement but I can’t tell you how much better I feel. This winter I am lounging around in style. Gone are the saggy, black leggings, I’ve moved onto the AIRism soft flared style (these super-cool leggings are also available in a versatile wine colour). They have the right amount of stretch and look chic teamed with a soft cashmere sweater (KLAXON: Uniqlo’s cashmere is currently on sale).

Having a small selection of loungewear to change into for an evening indoors does feel quite luxurious, but as I’m still WFH a lot of the time, it’s psychologically beneficial to make a switch at the end of the day. Plus, the lovely, soft fabrics and easy-to-wear designs mean I’m relaxing in comfort. Mr That’s Not My Age has been encouraged to ditch the old Rolling Stones sweatshirt and get with the loungewear programme.

Cosy HeatTech joggers
I feel as snug as a bug in the Heat Tech pile lined joggers with a fleecy lining. They’ve been a revelation and I’m going to try them out on my bike just as soon as my puncture is mended. Oh and I seem to have acquired another Round Mini Shoulder Bag. Honestly, I’ve used one every day since my introduction in December. This handy accessory is now available in a wider range of colours. Tempting.

Thanks Debs. I’m literally living in the HeatTech fleece-lined joggers right now. They are so cosy. I am encouraging Mr TNMA to buy a pair; and I met a colleague today and she’s wearing them in black.

I’ve not tried the track bottoms but am a big fan of Heatech in various forms. The thermals especially with long sleeves have been a saving grace in these chilly winter days living in a draughty place and trying to moderate when heating is on. I wear the airism camisoles all the year round now the marginally thicker heatech vests. I buy them close fitting to wear under shirts, dresses and pullovers. Scoop necks useful, polo and crew necks cosier. Highly recommend along with Uniqlo cashmere pullovers. Prices rose this year but with current discount are level with last years price. I don’t put in machine but wash by hand with Woolite or similar. Results good if one pulls into shape and dries flat.

The fleece-lined tracky-Bs sound like a great idea – I’ve got plenty of warm jumpers and it’s always my thighs that feel the cold.

I bought the heat tech joggers last year and love them, except (gasp) I hate elastic waist trousers, so I only wear them as pyjamas. This year I bought the fleece lined jeans and they have been in constant rotation since I got them, they are perfect!

Coincidentally I have just this morning bought that Uniqlo U ribbed cardigan with big pockets for £9.50 online in their sale. Bargain!
Uniqlo is great for warm loungewear. I have been living in their soft fluffy joggers and tops these last few weeks. All of that is now in the sale as well.

Love, love, love the Heattech fleece lined joggers – have them in 3 colours now and live in them at home when it’s cold!
They’re also great for van life in the cool summer evenings…..Jan says:

And I don’t feel I’m wearing teenage clothes,or heading to the gym!Beverly Pesacov says:
Love Uniqlo! Have been living in their thermal black sweatshirts for last couple of years. That with with the cozy sleeveless puffer is my current uniform! ♥️♥️

I live in the Boody brand leggings. They are bamboo based eco friendly and are really warm and comfortable. I can layer them or not. I wish they had other colors besides black.

Loving the autumn colour way and it does suit you well. I find that layers work so much better for keeping warm than one heavy item and Uniqlo items form a great deal of my work from home wardrobe. I bought Hubster some Heattech items for Christmas and he asked for some more, as he loved them so much, so worth looking at Uniqlo for all the members of the family. A sizing tip, check the comments and the actual measurements on items, as they really can vary hugely. Me, I just ordered a couple of shirts in the sale and am wearing, as I type, a cosy button up top from at least three years ago, so the items wash and last well too.
