I’m sure I’m not alone when I say that, prior to quarantine, I never really thought much about what I wear while at home. However, with this strange new reality that we’re currently facing, I find myself a lot more in tune with my at-home outfit choices (or, let’s face it, often my pajama choices!). Which leads me to the topic of this article, cute sweatshirts.

Cozy and versatile, sweatshirts can, as you know, be worn in a multitude of ways, whether it’s with sweats at home, or even with a pair of (gasp!) jeans when you go on your daily walk or weekly grocery trip.

Below, view a selection of five of the most stylish sweatshirts that I could find online. Each one is under $30, so you won’t have to feel guilty about treating yourself to a little loungewear pick-me-up.

Just keep scrolling to see these cute sweatshirts, along with some styling tips for how to wear them now and, of course, later, once quarantine is over!
