People often think that I put a TON of time into my appearance, waking up hours before I need to be at class or work to get "dressed up." Well let me tell you here, THAT'S NOT TRUE. I usually spend an hour TOPS getting ready for work or class and that includes breakfast, hygiene, hair, make-up and fashion selection. And I will also tell you this, you can do this too! All it takes are a few go to basics to cut your morning routine in half.
1. Cardigans–The perfect top off to any Plain Jane outfit. These cute, simple cardigans from Old Navy can take you from zero to chic in 60 seconds.
2. Full Skirts–Always cute and always comfortable, these 50's inspired skirts from Forever 21 are all excellent go to pieces.
3. Sundresses–These feminine frocks, from Urban Outfitters and Forever 21, can create an entire outfit in just one piece. Surprisingly, they are also insanely comfortable!
4. Cute, Comfy Shoes–A pair of playful wedges, like these Dexter ones from Payless, some ladylike flats, like these from Salvatore Ferragamo, and a pair of easy, strapy sandals are essential to creating an easy-chic wardrobe.
5. Slacks–These professional, polished pants from Charlotte Russe also play well as a casual staple.
Anna!
ReplyDeleteJust popped by to say that I think your style is absolutely gorgeous -- it's that perfect balance of cutesy and full-grown feminine that I adore :)
Am subscribing to your blog :D xx
i love how this is based on our car convo :) it's so true though, "dressing up" is not what people think it is. we spend wayyy less time picking out a cute outfit than others do with their meticulous makeup (then they put on hellpants, completely contradicting the whole look). these pieces are definitely the things i count on everyday.
