I\u2019ll admit that before 2020 I was never one to really consider comfort for my everyday style. I think it\u2019s the New Yorker in me, but I tend to put aesthetics and occasion first whenever I get dressed. Needless to say loungewear hasn\u2019t been a huge part of my wardrobe. Until now.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It was only after spending the last 9 months basically repurposing some of my active pieces and <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/collections\/intimates\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>sleepwear<\/strong><\/a> into comfy loungewear as I worked from home, that I decided to look into what sets loungewear apart from each other rather than just prints. And this is how I found out about what we at Dia have dubbed \u201cfeel-good fabrics\u201d in our latest collection of<a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/collections\/loungewear\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong> plus-size loungewear<\/strong><\/a>. Did you know that there are so many different levels to comfort? Here\u2019s what to add to your repertoire and how I suggest styling them to make them feel fresh this year.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\"><p>Leaning into cozy comfort doesn\u2019t mean that you can\u2019t elevate the style into one for a stylish professional event if you\u2019re working from home taking Zoom meetings.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/blog\/fashion\/plus-size-loungewear\/?tp_image_id=20174\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/gutenberg-blog-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/SHOT_04_Kelsey-Olsen_001_400x520.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20174\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-1 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/collections\/feel-good-style\" style=\"background-color:#cead96\">Shop Now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>Anything In Classic French Terry<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Lightweight and moisture wicking, French Terry is comfy enough to hangout and breathable enough to work out in. Call it a win-win.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As someone who has taken to doing some yoga in the morning before I start working at my desk, I can honestly say that anything made from French Terry is a great option\u2014 it allows me to start my workday seamlessly.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If this is your kind of comfort, consider our cotton-blend Arabella pullover and pants brushstroke print set. Sets like these are great because you can get dressed without having to think too much about it, much like <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/collections\/dresses\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>dresses<\/strong><\/a> (but warmer). Also, if you\u2019re not one for head to toe print don\u2019t worry, I\u2019m the same way so I totally understand. In this case I recommend breaking the print up by pairing the set with a solid accent piece. Or you can mix and match the top with a solid jogger or <a href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/collections\/leggings\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>plus-size leggings<\/strong><\/a>. You choose.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/blog\/fashion\/plus-size-loungewear\/?tp_image_id=20176\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/gutenberg-blog-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/SHOT_09_Kortlynn-Johnson_098_400x520.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20176\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-2 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/collections\/feel-good-style\" style=\"background-color:#cead96\">Shop Now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><b>Layerable Sweater Knit Sets<\/b><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This wrinkle-resistant, super-soft, featherweight sweater knit is a dream come true. It truly is like wearing a silky smooth, wispy cloud.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you\u2019re like me where you have those moments where you need to go from home to a quick grocery store run, this super-soft Jasmine hoodie and pant set is the one to reach for. The top even has a kangaroo pocket for carrying the basic essentials! Layer on a flannel shirt (I\u2019m seeing this everywhere), swap your slippers out for some white sneakers, and you\u2019re on your way to running errands in complete comfort. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" data-pin-url=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/blog\/fashion\/plus-size-loungewear\/?tp_image_id=20181\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dia.com\/gutenberg-blog-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/SHOT_13_Kelsey-Olsen_077_400x520.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-20181\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-buttons is-content-justification-center is-layout-flex wp-container-core-buttons-is-layout-3 wp-block-buttons-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-button\"><a class=\"wp-block-button__link has-white-color has-text-color has-background\" href=\"https:\/\/shop.dia.com\/collections\/feel-good-style\" style=\"background-color:#cead96\">Shop Now<\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Brushed Knit Tops<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Leaning into cozy comfort doesn\u2019t mean that you can\u2019t elevate the style into one for a stylish professional event if you\u2019re working from home taking Zoom meetings. Brushed knit pieces like this Odelia Balloon Sleeve Cardigan, are still perfect for wearing around the house, providing comfort, warmth and great style all in one.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Brushed knits are great because they have the plushiness of cashmere and are easy to care for\u2014simply throw it in the washing machine whenever it needs to be cleaned. Layer this cardigan over your favorite cami or tee and you\u2019ll make a fashion statement from the comfort of your own home.&nbsp;<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Have you given any of these feel-good fabrics a try?
