Clothing put on at home (7)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

habitat

'home' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

'clothing put on' is the wordplay.
'clothing' becomes 'habit' (habit is a kind of clothing).
'put' is a charade indicator (letters next to each other).
'on' becomes 'at' (I've seen this in other clues).
'habit'+'at'='HABITAT'

'at' is the link.

(Other definitions for habitat that I've seen before include "One's normal environment" , "Where something's usually found" , "Shop founded by Terence Conran" , "Surrender" , "Natural home of wildlife" .)

I've seen this clue in The Daily Express.
