I know, I know - this sounds scary, high-maintenance, and like far too much work - but hear me out. I like to put aside potential outfit combinations for the week ahead on Sunday evenings. However, this doesn't have to mean coming up with seven different, weather-appropriate outfits for the week.
If you're just starting out, try laying aside a pair of jeans you already want to wear next week (maybe they haven't been washed yet!), and one or two tops. Just separating potential pieces for the week ahead shaves minutes off getting dressed in the morning.
I like to create as many outfits as I can when inspiration strikes, then set them aside for next week or two. I then recycle the individual components, like the jeans or a sweater, with something else in the separate pile. Having fewer pieces to work with can actually help you get more creative with styling, and avoid the dreaded 'I have nothing to wear!' dilemma that occurs when you have five minutes to get dressed and be in class.
