The Throw-On Outfit I Plan On Wearing Every Day Next Month

I might be a fashion editor, but I am one of the laziest dressers going, and always look for outfits that I can throw on in minutes, if not seconds. I have a new '30-second' outfit that I'm wearing almost every day—and plan on recycling right through until summer. This month I am living in a satin midi skirt, with a jumper and chunky boots—and have discovered you can do so many variations on this outfit. The constant for me has been my Whistles hiker boots, but I've made it feel new by mixing different prints and bright colours.
The three items you need are a jumper or cardigan, pair of ankle boots and a midi skirt—and I've found so many of these ingredients for all price points. In my fantasy wishlist is an Acne zip-up ribbed jumper, Prada lace-up ankle boots and a Raey champagne-hued satin midi skirt. But I've also found so many amazing pieces on the high street, such as an apple-green satin skirt from Whistles and a black A-Line skirt from & Other Stories. Keep scrolling to shop the throw-on outfit I am living in right now.
