Actually there is some valid advice on dressing up a little because it helps with the work/life separation. I never did it because I like work and life blending (I enjoy teaching and doing research and I have zero decorum anyway) but psychologically, cues like your clothes can help set the mindset.
The same is true for location, too. Don’t work from bed unless you want that shit keeping you up at night.
And it doesn’t need to be anything crazy either. When I used to work from home at a previous job, I would just put on one of the company jackets I was issued. Mostly out of convenience for “cameras on” meetings, but it meant I could just wear whatever I wanted underneath. End of day, I take it off, no need to change into any other clothes or do extra laundry.
I have some sweaters that are mentally labeled as “work only”. No idea why, but they feel “professional” in a branch of work where people pretty much show up with dressing discards
OP is a pyjama model
I’ve been rocking my dressing gown and undies. I grab a t-shirt on my way to the computer and hang it off my boom mic for any meetings.
All depends on whether you have to be on camera or not. I’ve had to invert a t-shirt more than once when someone decided to force the camera thing.
