Baby, it’s (still) cold outside

With more chilly days ahead you might be like us: dealing with the aftermath of the holidays and laying low. Whatever your reason, now is a good time for rest and relaxation — which, of course, still requires a stylish look. From ultra-luxurious cashmere to sweatpants you’ll want to live in, Rebecca Tay offers five essential pieces for cosy weekends. CONSCIOUS CASHMERE

This mockneck turtleneck is made from ‘Recashmere,’ which is 60 per cent recycled cashmere, and 40 per cent extra-fine merino wool. It comes with half the carbon footprint of a normal Everlane cashmere sweater. We love its slightly cropped fit, which tucks perfectly into jeans without becoming overly bulky at your midriff.

DON’T SWEAT IT

For lazy afternoons that turn into movie nights with a glass or two of wine, you need a pair of sweatpants that won’t pill and still show that you made a tiny bit of effort. This pair features hidden zips at the ankles and front seams for a touch of class. Consider yourself extra lucky if you can also wear these on casual Fridays.

NOT JUST FOR SLEEPING

If you get changed to answer the door when the food delivery person arrives, it’s time you invested in a classic shirt by The Sleep Shirt.

Not only are they incredibly comfortable, they’re also modest enough to wear around the house when the in-laws come to visit. Most styles come in short, long or full-length; this midnight twill version is soft and smooth, and even a little silky.

TOASTY TOOTSIES

One of the first things we do when we get home each day is change straight into comfy clothes. This season, we’re looking forward to adding these cosy suede, shearling-lined slippers by Manitobah Mukluks, an Indigenous-owned company that is based in Winnipeg.

MELLOW YELLOW

Every weekend wardrobe needs a good, cosy sweater that’s fashionable enough for you to wear outside and not be afraid of running into your ex. Enter this Acne Studios sweater. Its baby yellow hue is sweet but not saccharine, and it’s made from mohair that’s so soft, you’ll want to wear it all weekend long.
