At this point in the year, I think we are all looking forward to a bit of relaxation. While we usually change lifestyle a bit (take it easy at work, spend time with family, drink a bit too much on a weekday, etc.), that relaxation should trickle down too much more than how you spend your day. Relax more wearing shoes that feel like slippers, even if they aren't. The Allbirds Loungers are the perfect hybrid between comfortable house slipper and slip-on sneaker.
Made of wool, they're breathable, durable, and they look sleek and put together. You can easily get away with wearing them to work on that awkward week between Christmas and New Years. I wear mine all the time, to friends' houses, to grab brunch or dinner, and definitely around the house. They're also great to wear when you're working from home and need to go get this week's groceries, but just cannot be bothered to change. They're the answer to my question of "Do I really need to put shoes on right now?"
