10 Easy Outfit Ideas Perfect For Rushed Mornings

Let’s be honest, as a college student, I’m lucky if I wake up on time most days. In between balancing homework, work, a social life, and my various hobbies most days, I don’t go to bed until late, which always haunts me the next day as I’m forced to wake up at an ungodly hour for my math class. For those of you that are like me and have difficulties waking up on time, always finding yourself pressed for time to get ready- here are some easy outfit ideas to help you get out the door and on your way to conquer the day.

1. A simple dress.

A dress is a signature clothing piece that every closet should have, and because it doesn’t need to be matched with bottoms, it’s one of the best easy outfit ideas for rushed mornings. To make the outfit complete simply pair the dress a big scarf and booties – super fashionable with minimal effort.

2. A button down and jeans.

Grab a button down, slip on a pair of dark jeans and sneakers. Forget about doing your hair too, just throw on a beanie; a very cute autumn look.

3. A knitted sweater and boots.

This is one of my favorite easy outfit ideas for the colder mornings. A sweater and tall boots looks polished on its own, but sling a necklace around your neck and no one would have any idea you were running out the door.

4. A simple tee and jeans.

This classic look couldn’t be easier. A chunky scarf adds some fall appeal, and converse sneakers give off a casual, yet trendy vibe.

5. An over-sized sweater and shorts.

If you are feeling particularly rushed, grab your favourite sweater (because it’s probably laying out around your room somewhere), step into a comfy pair of shorts and whatever shoes you can find- and head out the door.

6. A tank top and leggings.

This is perfect for someone who wants to be comfortable the whole day and maybe hit the gym without having to come back home (and reduce the risk of Netflix distracting you from your gym goals). Pair this look with a messy bun and a pair of Nike shoes.

7. The go-to hoodie.

This is one of those easy outfit ideas that’s perfect for any typical autumn day (cold in the morning but hot in the afternoon). By tying the hoodie around your waist it makes the outfit look even better.

8. A graphic tee and anything black.

This outfit idea allows you to get dressed reasonably quickly because you won’t even have to think about it. A graphic tee and literally any black bottom you can find = an easy, fashionably and edgy ensemble. For days when you are really running late you can throw on a beanie to skip having to comb your hair.

9. A plaid shirt and black jeans.

Plaid shirts or “Lumber Jack” shirts as some people call them are all the rage nowadays, and by pairing one with neutral jeans or tights you can have a really quick outfit to get you out the door faster.

10. Colorful bottoms and a basic white tee.

This a really easy way to incorporate colours into your look without having to worry about matching different prints together. By sticking to a white shirt (black works too) you allow the focus of the outfit to be your skirt/leggings.
