How I Get Dressed in 5 Min Without Overthinking It 😌

Lately I’ve realised I spend a lot less time thinking about what to wear… not because I suddenly became better at dressing, but because I stopped trying to create a completely new outfit every morning.

Instead, I keep coming back to the same few formulas and just switch up the styling.

A shirt over the shoulders. An interesting neckline. A scarf, belt or bag. Small changes, but they make getting dressed feel so much easier.

I’ve also become a lot more intentional about what I add to my wardrobe. Good basics that are easy to mix and match always end up getting the most wear, and they are usually the pieces I reach for over and over again.

These outfits are all from Lauren Ralph Lauren, and I really love how wearable the pieces are. The linen trousers, especially, have quickly become one of those wardrobe staples I know I’ll keep reaching for because they work with almost everything.

Lauren Ralph Lauren has also just opened its first standalone boutique in Singapore, and I’d definitely recommend popping by if you’re around Orchard. It’s always nice being able to see the fabrics, try everything on, and appreciate the little details in person.

Hope these little outfit formulas make getting dressed a little easier 🤍

... Read moreFrom personal experience, adopting a capsule wardrobe philosophy can drastically cut down the time spent deciding what to wear each morning. By investing in high-quality basics—like well-fitting linen trousers or classic tops—you create a foundation that’s easy to mix and match. I find that layering a shirt or cardigan over the shoulders not only adds dimension but doubles as an adaptable outer layer when temperatures drop. Accessorizing is another game changer. Adding just one simple piece such as a scarf, belt, or statement bag instantly elevates a look and injects personality without requiring a wardrobe overhaul. For example, a neutral outfit paired with a colorful scarf or a textured belt feels fresh and put-together effortlessly. Shopping intentionally is key: I always prioritize versatile pieces that complement multiple outfits. The Lauren Ralph Lauren collection, with its sophisticated yet wearable designs, is perfect for this purpose. Their newly opened Singapore boutique at Ngee Ann City offers an excellent chance to see and feel these garments firsthand, ensuring they align with your style and fit preferences. Remember, the goal isn’t to constantly create brand-new outfits but to refine a few reliable combinations that make getting dressed a breeze. Over time, you’ll find that these go-to formulas reduce stress, save time, and boost confidence. Embracing this mindset transforms your wardrobe from overwhelming to empowering—making your mornings smoother and your style more sustainable.

If you’re thinking of moving out too
