WHY TWINNING IS WINNING
By Symone Keisha, January 14, 2024
It's Jan, which means we're gonna be in sweats, pajamas and loungewear for the foreseeable... BUT, if you're bored and looking for a way to update your repertoire, we've got the answer: TWINNING 👯♂️ That's right, grab your bf, gf or bff, pick some matching loungewear sets (or his and hers pajamas!) and get ready to serve power-couple vibes. For inspo, check out these duos consciously coupling 😍

#1: COLOR MATCH
Similar: Stradivarius soft touch sweater co-ord in green, $39.90

The key to twinning? Keep one clear defining factor the same in both of your looks. Here, partners in style Ellie Joslin and Joseph Lynch go tonal with their matching loungewear in a color we're still crushing over: sage green 💚 Varying sleeve lengths and texture add difference but are still as effective. We're into it.

#2: TAKE TWINNING LITERALLY
Similar: Calvin Klein Jeans Unisex seaming oversized hoodie in beige, $70

For true unisex styling, channel Oliver Proudlock and Emma-Louise Connolly and rep the exact same tracksuit. Opting for PUMA down to the ground (literally, did you cop those kicks?), these two are mixing it up with respective statement earrings and chains. Slick.

Remember what we said about finding a key defining factor? Witness it working on Loz Vassallo and Lee Taylor: matching tracksuits in the exact same shade of neutral paired with cool khaki puffers and white kicks, and they've each chosen a shade to rep in beanie form. Clever, eh? 🧢
