Between school drop-offs, grocery runs, work meetings, and the occasional coffee break, getting dressed can feel like one more thing on your already packed to-do list. But what if getting dressed actually helped you feel more in control—and more like yourself?
This back-to-school season, we’re helping busy women like you rediscover the joy in getting dressed with easy, elevated outfit formulas that take the stress out of style. These are the kind of looks you can throw on at 7 a.m. and still feel chic by dinner time.
Outfit Formula #1: The Drop-Off & Done Look
Base: Soft graphic tee + High-rise denim
Layer: Gauze button-down or utility jacket
