Wear two Kappa tracksuits that is the whole point in having a wardrobe full of them. One tracksuit each day in the summer, Two in the winter and three if it goes Siberia for a week.

If you don't mind looking like a bit of a ****, go for the Wall Street Banker-bro outfit - generally a Patagonia fleece vest (other brands are acceptable though), corporate logo optional.

I usually go for a smart fitted jumper. This sort of thing (random examples):

I quite like that first one, though I'm not sure how well those two would work with a shirt - if you have a high collar on a jumper then the shirt collars can be a bit awkward... unless of course OP just wears the jumper over a t-shirt perhaps - though that might not be smart enough.

I do think that this is probably the right idea though - a smart jumper, maybe cashmere as some have suggested, is probably the way to go - perhaps a more rounded collar to allow for a shirt collar.

Many have done...

Personally I think the "power lunch" text in the third image, with the really creative use of a "power" logo is enough... I don't think there is much more that needs to be stated here beyond those pictures.

Build a little bitcoin mining rig, stick it under you desk, (maybe) profit.

Wear something warm/comfortable and then chuck a shirt on for the call?
Amazes me that in 2020 people still have to dress up for work, even at home.

So long as I don't look like cUMMINGS, I can live with looking a bit of an ****.

LOL they're all at it... I guess it's how you wear it Bezos seems to be able to pull it off:

Technically it started as a tech-bro trend, it became popular with bankers post-financial crisis when dress codes were relaxed.

Either a cashmere tracksuit, or putting the heating on you cheap git

So I'm now working from home, in the north corner of an old house, and I don't want to heat it to office temps (ours were shirt-sleeves most of the year round). I'm sat at a desk, and after an hour I'm freezing.

Is there clothing that will keep me warm and is smart enough to appear on conference calls?

Considering longjohns and long-sleeved vests, but don't want to go all gramps yet...

I bought my mrs a heated throw blanket for £40 from the river-named retailer. It should save a fortune on heating. I was so impressed with it, I just got one for myself, too.

Careful now. Overclockers sell them aswell.

As if people care what you're wearing while on a conf call.

I've just basically been in trackie bottoms and fleece tops while wfh apart from when it was very hot then it was ultra thin gym t-shirts and shorts.

Yeah you keep telling yourself that while your colleagues have a seperate zoom meeting to talk about your inappropriate attire.

I don't dress smart for work anymore, when I did my working environment was hot, but the office was freezing (I spent 70% time in the office). I used to wear a vest under my shirt and one of these which are surprisingly warm. They looked good over a shirt too, especially if you had contrasting colours (white shirt, blue gillet).

Oops!

Dressing just to look formal and smart for your colleagues benefit is antiquated and ridiculous. Granted if it's a customer facing role or you're doing some form of public speaking then fair enough. Otherwise just be comfortable and presentable.

If I had colleagues who felt the need to have a call about my attire then I would be in the wrong business.
