It’s not uncommon for me to change outfits, or at least modify my outfit, 3-4x a day — exercise outfit, drop-off outfit, studio outfit, and then “public-facing” outfit for pick-up, meeting, lunch date, errands, etc. When I’m in my studio, I need to be warm and comfortable, and by comfortable I mean that the pants need to be something I can easily sit in for hours (rigid denim can be a nightmare), the shoes must be flat, and the sleeves need to be non-impeding. (Sometimes something as minor as the cuff of a bulky sweater or the constraints of a structured jacket will drive me crazy while I’m trying to type or hand draft.) Usually, I just swap out shoes and top layer when going from studio to the great outdoors. Sharing a few of inspirational collages to demonstrate some of the easy swaps I’d make so that I don’t need to entirely change my outfit from soup to nuts:
