Even before I became a mom of two, I was always on the hunt for outfit formulas that made getting ready easy without sacrificing style. There is nothing I appreciate more than being able to get dressed in ten minutes or less, especially in an outfit that's comfortable to boot. It's no wonder I appreciate the Scandinavian aesthetic as much as I do—The looks always have a healthy balance of the cool factor and practicality that I crave.
Enter the latest Scandi-girl outfit formula I can't get enough of—an oversize T-shirt or button-down shirt with a long skirt and a pair of cool flat shoes like sandals, ballet flats, or sneakers.
It's clear I am not the only one who loves this look, as it's a favorite among fashion crowds in L.A., New York City, London, Copenhagen, and beyond. Keep scrolling to check out 12 ways to wear this outfit and to shop each look.
