I Tried Meghan Markle's Favorite Slippers For Work From Home, And Honestly I've Never Been Comfier

I’m getting into the habit of wearing only comfortable clothing lately, which means I’m road testing everything from the softest bras to maxi dresses that feel like pajamas. It’s a tough job, but someone’s got to do it.

And in today’s addition, I’ve discovered a loafer-slipper shoe hybrid that is so soft on your feet, yet will still make you feel like a functioning (and stylish!) adult for all those Zoom calls.

The answer are the Meghan Markle-approved Birdies!

The Duchess of Sussex has worn the slipper-shoes for everything from running errands to royal engagements.

The San Francisco-based, women-led shoe company has a signature 7-Layer Responsive Cushion Technology that makes them feel like you’re walking on air.

I tried one of their just-dropped velvet Starlings. The shoe comes in a Dusty Rose pale pink velvet–so pretty and unexpected!–and features a satin quilted insole. Aka, they make me feel just a little bit dressy in this strange work-from-home time, and I can also transition them to wearing for my solo walks with the kids in the park.

They’re amazing because they go from inside-the-home to out. I’m obsessed!
