I think this is linked to me being a slightly anal-retentive Virgo.
I love organisation. I love lists.
And I also love a sleep in.
So I have a few time-saving tricks that I use to allow me to sleep in and also means I get to work on time; looking like I've put some effort in.
1. organise my outfit the night before......like I said anal-retentive Virgo who likes a sleep in.
2. footless tights, where appropriate, over a dress or long tee (weekend casual)- saves on leg shaving when you can't be bothered
3. bun - top knots, sock buns; especially on unbrushed, unwashed hair. Just a note to brush that hair once in a while - spent 30 minutes the other day trying to brush knots out of 3 week unbrushed hair....
4. flats - get out of the house quickly
5. make routine that can be done in 15 minutes or less.
And this is how I get out of the house by 7:30am when I get out of bed at 7:00am.
And here is an example of my recent #ootd #aussiecurves that employ these techniques.

And after all of this repetitive top bun action, I have worn my hair down, poker straight for the last two days. With heels. Sometimes a girl needs a change...........
