The $80 outfit that's revolutionised getting dressed in the morning.

Funny fact for you: I'm Mamamia's Morning Editor but not at all a morning person.

Yep. You would never find me going for a run before work, watching the sunrise or "seizing the day," as they say. I would be in my bathroom, fluffing about and listening to a podcast while doing my hair and makeup. Oh, the days.

Now, I'm up at 5am, no question. My lunch is made the night before. My makeup is done at work; and I don't care what my hair looks like from behind because I can't see it.

I also have a rotation of outfits I wear, so when I'm still half asleep, I can put one on and know I'll look presentable for the day ahead.

There's my classic black dress, midi skirt and tee combo, and a denim playsuit that I can't stop raving about or reaching for.

Told you I love it!

It's the only thing I need to put on in the morning, I can mix and match with different shoes depending on how I feel, and the denim is comfortable for all-day wear, surprisingly.

Also, despite sharing my work outfits on my Instagram most days, my colleagues, friends and family continue to compliment me on it whenever I wear it.

I'll caveat by saying that the downside is having to strip down whenever you want to go to the bathroom, but whatever!

Unfortunately, I bought my denim playsuit towards the end of last year so my exact one is only available in cream.
