I have stopped using cufflinks and instead roll back the cuffs for that informal WFH look.

I think my shaving system is now basically if on a video conference or meeting a client then shave. If no, let it grow..

The boxer shorts have been on a few weeks now, and Im still showering bi-monthly, so hygiene standards as strict as always.

Used to shave and put on a suit, shirt, smart shoes, aftershave and watch most weekdays.

I have spent the last 8 months wearing grey tracksuit bottoms and a T shirt. I shave infrequently, and only when I have a Zoom meeting that I deem important.

I used to visit the barbers every 4 week, and now my wife cuts my hair with clippers while I sit in my boxer shorts on a kitchen chair.

I’ll even admit to drinking the odd can of lager in the afternoon while working.

Probably washed the cars twice in the whole year, mostly because we have barely used them.
