While winter is the best time to live in comfy pajamas, robes, leggings, house dresses and sweatpants, the best loungewear sets have emerged as our new favorites since they’re so versatile. After all, if you choose the right one, it can pull double duty for hanging out and working from home. You can even wear some cute loungewear sets out in the real world, too.

And this isn’t just wishful thinking on our part. “Working from home is the present and the future, and more time at home, in general, is going to continue to be the trend,” says Astar Davidson, an athleisure industry merchandising and retail veteran.

The key to making the most of this look? “Finding flattering fits and silhouettes that complement your body type and opting for easy-to-maintain fabrics,” says Davidson. “Low-maintenance is the name of this whole game.”

Whether you’re on a tight budget or want to splurge, and whether you’re a low-key or serious fashionista, we’ve got the perfect loungewear set for you.
