Benefit: My skin has NEVER been better! Less daily makeup means fewer breakouts. I also have more time for a proper skincare routine in the morning instead of rushing. Hair is healthier too, less heat styling. Drawback: Sometimes I do feel a bit 'undone' and it can make me feel less motivated, so I make an effort to at least wear 'real' clothes (not PJs) even if comfy.
I definitely spend less on work clothes and dry cleaning! Big financial win. Style-wise, it's much more about comfort now. Athleisure is my uniform. I find I have more time for other wellness things like a longer morning walk or meditation because I'm not spending time on a full 'office ready' look.
The main drawback for me was initially feeling a bit disconnected from my professional identity. Dressing up for the office used to be part of that. I've found that even just putting on some nice earrings or a smart top for video calls helps me get into 'work mode' mentally. It's less about others seeing me, more about how it makes *me* feel.
