Magnus Carlsen left the New York competition after he was told he had to change out of his jeans. Now, the International Chess Federation has relaxed its dress code rules to allow for "elegant deviations".
While i do get your sentiment, i also somewhat disagree. I like being professional looking while being professional looking, and then relaxing while looking relaxed. Imo it creates a barrier between work and living, så that the two are properly separated.
And that’s okay, for you. I used to do the same. I have dozens of button up shirts collected over the years (most of which don’t fit me anymore, unfortunately) from back when I had to go to the office daily. When I started working from home, not having to care about what I’m wearing removed a stress factor from my life that I didn’t know I didn’t need. Now I go to the office a couple days per week, and I just make sure I showered and that my d&d t-shirt is clean.

Clothes on? Professional.
Clothes off? Relaxed.
👍
¯\_(ツ)_/¯ and that’s like your choice
