It secretly might be your alarm’s fault (or maybe that’s something you tell your boss/manager) but the truth of the matter is that you’re late, hungover from last night’s Quantico and Milka Oreo watching/binging, and you have zero minutes to spare for brewing your caramel coffee. Life really sucks those days. But what sucks even more is when you’re on a time crunch and you have your panties in a bunch with nothing to wear and represent your ‘I have my life together’ look. That’s when this faithful post comes into play. Don’t worry, we’ve got your back, your front and your go-to outfits for the week sorted with these celebrity-inspired looks. Here you go…

1. Keep it simple

Stick to a pair of faithful jeans, the most comfiest and prettiest top you own and there, you’re set.

2. Sweater weather

It may not be winter, yet. But it is coming. Put on a light cotton sweatshirt with some embellishments or a cute slogan/print and you’re one step further to leaving your house. Psst, you can also wear it off your shoulder like Priyanka Chopra just did.

3. Leather is your friend

A leather jacket is like a denim jacket, except it’s 5 times more fierce! It has magic powers to get your boring white tee and jeans a chic upgrade.

4. Go all black

Black is a legit colour. It’s not only the colour of my soul (I’m only kidding) but it’s the universal colour of looking good. All you need; Black leggings, a black muscle tee or a plain tee and you my friend, are ready to seize the day (and all that follows).

5. Denim on denim

In a rush to get out of the house, it’s hard to get your #ootd to be on trend. While two-sets and the rest of the trends might be hard to figure out early in the AM, you can opt for the easiest trend of all – the denim on denim look!

6. Go for the maxi

A cute maxi is a must in anyone’s wardrobe. While buying a maxi, choose a colour that would do good for the day or night. You could even add a blazer to look more professional, or flip flops for a casual environment.

7. Layer on

One of the reasons we all love fall (okay, why I love fall) is the fact that you can layer on without anyone giving you judgemental looks. Long coats, blazers, waterfall jackets, varsity coats and shrugs can be your trusted friends during those crucial times when your outfit looks average.

8. Graphic tee

If you’re not into the layers or denim-on-denim looks, try pairing your jeans or even your joggers with a printed tee. Something cute and snarky always does the job in making you look trendy and well, ready on time!

9. The basics: white shirt and jeans

Now, this no one can go wrong with! No matter the case, blue jeans and a white top are the understated and most important staples anyone should have in their closet. You can dress it up by wearing heels and a statement accessories. Or dress it down by folding your jeans at your ankle with some cute flats and sunnies.

OR, maybe we could do what Alia Bhatt does and get the Io Walk. It might just get us to work in time.
