The Style Post: The Oversized Shirt Formulae

I don’t know about you, but for me getting dressed in the morning is a nightmare. Not only because I’m still half asleep and fall over a fair few times before I get the hang of things, but because I also stand in front of my wardrobe in a zombie-esk stance. I just have no idea what I’m doing!

Recently I decided enough was enough and I made a simple little formulae for myself on these days that goes something like this: oversized shirt + jeans + boots = done. Time spent on getting dressed is at an all time low and I’m not dressed like a scruffy boy – gold star for Suzie.

The shirt about is from Zara (as is the bag) but I’ve seen more affordable an recent versions pop up everywhere, primark, new look, H&M, they’re everywhere! Paired with my Joni jeans and mighty boots which are both from Topshop.

So the quest for the speediest wardrobe time in the morning ever is officially on, and I recently started a new project that might just get me there – in the mean time I’ll be relying on my oversized shirt formulae to keep me on track!

    Do you know what, Tesco have some that are amazing at the moment. Already got two.

    I feel your pain Suzie, I get up in a morning and just want to throw on whatever's nearest. I may have to adopt your shirt, jeans and boots formula!

    A great plan! First of all because I adore all things Zara & secondly, oversize shirts are great, they're comfy, look great and also go perfectly with leggings (and most things at that) so this is a great lookxx

    I'm terrible with getting dressed early in the mornings, when I can be bothered the night before I lay my outfit out but mostly I do what you do. My formula is shorts + tights + blouse + knitwear + boots. All time laziness but I'd do anything for an extra few minutes in bed
