The #QuarantinePillowChallenge is taking over Instagram

The beauty of social media is that it connects us on a global scale, something we're needing more than ever right now as we stay indoors and continue to work from home.

As we almost enter week four of lockdown, we're finding a myriad of creative ways to pass the time, from creating hilarious videos on Tiktok and couples getting married on Animal Crossing or getting in on the latest # craze on Instagram.

Challenges on social media are becoming the go-to form of entertainment these days with everything from #HomeCouture to #DressUpFriday trending.

This week's challenge really takes the cake though, with the #QuarantinePillowChallenge.

While at first you may think WTF? How would that be fun? It's just the latest way people are taking the mick out of their former fashion-forward selves, ditching the track pants for, yep, you guessed it a pillow.

The hilarious challenge sees style goers wearing a pillow as a sort of mini dress, with a belt securely keeping everything in place, so it appears as though they're wearing nothing else.

Still confused? We've rounded up some of our favourite looks below. Be prepared to LOL:

Looking like a lavender cloud:
