Fashion Essentials for Working from Home

March 23, 2020 By in Fashion Tags: , , , , , , , , , , 4 Comments

Many of us have crossed over to the working from home lifestyle. If you are new to working from home, you may be wondering about fashion essentials for working from home. If you are, Fashion and Style Police has got you covered. Working from home is usually chilled and laid back. You should get dressed to feel motivated to work from home, so there are a few fashion essentials you may be needing if you don’t already have them. Here are some ideas for you.

Fashion Essentials for Working from Home
Comfy Trousers

Comfy trousers are needed to keep you warm and comfortable while you work from home. I usually stay away from jeans and other tight fitted trousers. Comfy trousers are great fashion essentials for working from home. They are as comfortable as PJs but way more stylish. I currently have my eye on this ASOS piece below –

ASOS DESIGN Petite Supersoft Flare Trouser

This high rise ASOS petite trousers is really comfy and stylish. I love the design a lot, the flared at the knee and skinny fit finishes it off perfectly. I also love the fact that it is a petite piece.

Hoody

The beauty about working from home is that you can in your hoody. I love wearing hoodies, especially at this time of the year. It is comfy and nowadays I don’t have to put the heater on while wearing my hoody. Here is a piece I am currently loving –

This oversized hoodie by Hoodie is a great option. I love how simple it looks and I love the wash your hands bit as well. It works well for what is happening worldwide now. It is a great example of a comfy and stylish hoody to work from home in.

Sweatshirts

I love working from home in a sweatshirt. A stylish pair keeps me looking fly and in the mood to get on with my day. I have quite a few pairs and I am forever adding more to my wardrobe. I can’t get enough of sweatshirts. Here is one I really like –

Working, Schooling and Homeschooling the Twins

March 23, 2020 By in Kids Section, Lifestyle Tags: , , , , , , , , , 11 Comments

I have deliberately avoided writing about Coronavirus on here because I don’t want to dwell on it. There’s enough news about it everywhere else and I don’t want to add to the hysteria going on, but it is becoming more and more difficult not to talk about it. This pandemic is affecting lives all over the world. The kiddies are now homeschooling from today due to this virus. So I am now supposed to work, study and homeschool the twins all at the same time. This will take a lot of planning and determination, but I am sure we will work it all out. Health and safety comes first, and I support the powers that be in this decision.

Working from home

I will be blogging as usual. The topics will vary as they usually do. Do not expect to see topics on Coronavirus on the confusion it is causing. I am rising above that and talking about other things no one seems to be talking about. If you need a good distraction from the current pandemic, you may find the blog posts really interesting. I will also carry on doing my other online jobs and see where the opportunities take me.

Schooling from home

Like many of you know, I started studying with The Open University last year. It has been going really well. I am self-motivated, so I do what needs to be done and I am also really enjoying studying the modules. However, it has been a lot harder to concentrate with all what is going on in the world. Luckily, I have managed to stay on top of my study and assessments somehow. This will carry on as normal.

Homeschooling the Twins

Homeschooling the twins is the biggest change. Normally, the kids are in school for a good few hours and I use those hours to get work and uni jobs done. At the moment, this is no longer the case. Schools are closed here indefinitely and I are meant to homeschool the twins. Fitted this in is the hardest part of all but it has to be done. The twins are in year 1 and are exceeding their targets, I won’t want them to fall behind. So we will be following the curriculum from home as much as possible, to keep them engaged.

If you are stuck at home and wondering how to engage the kids, you should try out these YouTube channels below.

Cosmic Kids Yoga

This YouTube channel focuses on mindfulness, yoga and relaxation for kids. We watch the videos and they are really nice, the twins love them. The videos are adventurous and they help children build strength, balance and confidence.

Little Sports

This YouTube channel has loads of workout videos for kids. For those of us that are unable to go out as much, you can still get the title ones moving with these videos. They are also great for indoor activities on rainy days.

I usually join in with the kiddies and I enjoy the videos too! If you are stuck indoors and wondering how to spend a few minutes keeping the kids moving, you should check out these videos. Safe stay.
