With all the chatter surrounding the countless ways we can practice self-care, I firmly believe loungewear and leisure wear top the list. Because while facial sheet masks, sun salutations, and proper sleep hygiene are all well and good, nothing beats slipping into clothing that’s simple, soft, and most importantly, comfortable—especially after a long day of travel.

Enter Naked Cashmere, a company founded by knitwear experts that specializes in sustainable, premium cashmere. Lounging around doesn’t get any more luxurious than this subtantial seven-gauge knit sweater in an elegant dove grey hue and a timeless, easy-to-wear silhouette.

The name says it all. This sweatshirt from the hip Los Angeles-based fashion and lifestyle brand has everything you want in a weekend piece. The French terry is buttery soft to the touch.

Nuuds by influencer Daryl-Ann Denner is based on a simple concept: to offer well-made, everyday basics that look great on all body types. (Denner went as far as to enlist family members, not fit models, to ensure Nuuds would complement real-life bodies.) As with the rest of the Nuuds lineup, this best-selling pajama set—which is equally perfect for relaxing and working from home—is made with a silky-soft and cool-to-the-touch fabric you’ll find impossible to take off.
