Life in self isolation can be a total rollercoaster of emotions.
One minute you think you’re totally fine – you showered, ate three square meals – and the next it’s 10pm on a Monday night and you’re sobbing over Normal People with a bottle of wine and a packet of Ginger Nuts.
The only thing getting us through is seeing how other people are holding up in isolation – the good, the bad and the ugly.
And of course our favourite celebrity gals have been keeping us entertained with photos of their jazzy working from home tracksuits, new at-home dye jobs and fun date nights … in their living rooms.
So if you’re in need of some inspiration to help you embrace your best quarantine self – and all the elasticised pants at your disposal – keep on scrolling to see how these A-listers are handling life in iso.

In isolation, even the smallest of feats, like putting on actual pants, feel like giant wins. ABC host Annabel Crabb slipped into these jazzy zebra trousers as she prepared for the loosening of some social distancing rules.
“Today I practiced putting on PANTS!!!” she wrote on Instagram, alongside this fun pic. “To be honest it’s quite a job finding a Transitional Trouser. Ie one that looks smartish but does not overly shock a lower body which has been in PJs, or inactively occupying activewear for a month. I bought these excellent zebra pants from @philosophyaustraliafashion, Aussie made purveyor of many trackies-cunningly-pretending-to-be-fancypants.” Love it!
