This Chic Activewear Is All I’m Wearing While Working From Home

Anyone who’s been spending more time at home lately (AKA, all of us), surely knows the magic of chic activewear.

Wearing your usual work clothes at home feels uncomfortable, but sitting around in your sweats feels lazy. Enter: the magic of chic activewear. It still looks put together, but it’s also comfortable.

Plus, it means you can easily press pause during the workday to fit in a quick walk or break a sweat in the backyard. We all know by now that taking care of our bodies is so important in mentally strenuous times like these. And being able to quickly transition from work to play, without so much as a wardrobe change just makes everything feel a little bit easier.

The hard part? Finding just the right pieces.

I don’t know about you, but for me, highly technical and brightly coloured sportswear isn’t really what I’m going for when I aim for an athleisure look. Sure, the sporty vibe works wonders at the gym—but for options that also look cute at home, I tend to prefer something a little more stylish.

It can seem like an impossible mission to find activewear that looks chic, feels good, and fits within a reasonable budget. Thankfully, Mango’s selection of super stylish sportswear has made it a whole lot easier.

Keep scrolling to see the chic activewear I’ll be wearing while working from home. Maybe you’ll find yourself adding one (or ten) to your cart too.

This knitted sports bra looks like it easily could've cost three times as much. Perfect for wearing while doing yoga at home, or paired with denim shorts for a simple beach ‘fit, when the weather allows.

mango activewear bodysuit — Mango, ribbed bodysuit ($50)

For some reason, bodysuits just look so much more glamorous than two-piece sets. I love this simple style, and think it’d look great with a jumper thrown over for neighbourhood strolls.

A belt bag that’s somehow both sporty and fashion-forward? Yes please! The quilted material elevates this from a simple sports accessory to so much more. Perfect for carrying your phone and keys while you go on long walks. No pockets, no problem.

You had me at cashmere. Seriously, what could be more luxurious for working from home? Look great, feel great, tick all the boxes!

But what do you wear with knit leggings? Why, a knit tank of course. I can’t help but feel cosy just thinking about this outfit. Plus, this top would look great paired with jeans to wear out-and-about too.
