Leaving within a quarter of an hour in 15 minutes' time

In the bustling world of today, finding time to prepare for the day can be a challenge. But for some, a structured morning routine is the key to starting the day focused and energized. Let's delve into the morning of an individual who has mastered this art, and explore their simple yet stylish outfit.

Upon waking, the day begins immediately. The routine, lasting around 15 minutes, is a carefully planned sequence of activities designed to set a positive tone for the day. It may include exercises such as stretching or jogging, planning the day, and some light tidying tasks. This brief but effective routine is a testament to the power of a well-organised start to the day.

As for the outfit, it's a capsule within a capsule, demonstrating the versatility of essential pieces. The shirt, a delightful find from Anthropologie, pairs perfectly with a pair of old jeans from Gap. For those seeking similar options, they can be found here. Shoes, old but trusty, are from Madewell, with nearly identical options available here.

The hair, a key element of the look, is often put up in a top knot in a hurry. For those with longer hair, a beachy wave can be achieved with a straightener, using a specific technique detailed elsewhere. When in a rush, the hair can be spruced up with a cheap and natural dry shampoo, and given a deconstructed, lived-in look with the application of a product.

Minimal makeup, consisting of just five products, completes the look. Details about these can be found elsewhere. Accessories, too, play a crucial role. A necklace from Moulton adds a touch of elegance, while bracelets from the same brand add a personal touch. A bag from Nordstrom ties the outfit together.

One interesting aspect of this individual's routine is the efficiency gained by laying out their outfit the night before. This simple practice saves valuable time in the morning, allowing for a more relaxed start to the day.

In the morning, this individual demonstrates that a well-organised routine and a simple yet stylish outfit can make a significant difference in starting the day off right. By following their lead and adapting their strategies to suit our own lifestyles, we too can reap the benefits of a mindful morning routine.
