All-Night Study Session Loungewear

Pulling all-nighters studying for those midterms is almost inevitable. It’s important to make sure you have cozy, comfortable loungewear to make those study sessions a little more bearable. Or, maybe you’re doing online school and love wearing cozy things that aren’t your long sleeve pj’s. No matter your situation, here are a couple of our favorite women’s loungewear sets that are must-haves:

 

The Astra Hoodie and Rigel Sweatpant makes the perfect beige loungewear set. Made by the Turkish brand Arzu Sabanci Activewear, everything is made sustainable by using natural and organic cotton fabrics and blends modernism with high quality.

Go from class to the gym, or not, in style.

In A Hurry? Jumpsuits!

If you’re in a rush to get to your class on time you probably don’t have time to come up with an outfit. This is why woman’s designer jumpsuits and playsuits are a must-have item in every closet. While it is simple to put on, it looks very fashionable and stylish.

 

We have so many gorgeous women’s designer jumpsuits on Maison Orient, but one of our favorites for back to school has to be the Day to Night Jumpsuit by the slow fashion brand Giyi. It is sustainably made with 100% Tencel™ Lyocell materials. The wide-leg, short sleeve silhouette is super flattering and can be sinched with the belt, or no belt for a more casual look. Flawless design.
