Blazer: H&M, Button-down: GAP, Shirt: Bailey 44, Leggings: AA, Boots: Payless, Belt: ZARA

When I know I'm going to be getting up super early I like to plan what I'm going to wear the night before so I save as much time as possible for coffee/waking up.
I know in theory the process of getting dressed should really be more effortless, but I'd rather feel confident in what I'm wearing than reach for any old sweater and jeans. Its kind of nice having a little pile of clothes waiting for you in the morning when there are so many other things you have to worry about (like trying to keep your eyes open).

This is the outfit I came up with to wear to NY yesterday. It was comfortable and easy to put together, even though I was freezing until the sun came out.

Oh my, you truly are the master of layering, luv:-). What can I say? I absolutely love the outfit.
And yes, preparing the clothes you gonna wear the next day makes the whole business of getting ready in the morning much easier.

Great outfit ! You are wearing the lame leggings very well!

Elizabeth, Delightfully Tacky said...

Love the leggings. I wish they were cheaper, cuz if so I'd have way more of them.

I laughed about the laying out clothes thing because I just got done doing that for tomorrow. Sure does make life easier.
