Who has time to iron clothes for hours in the morning? Skip this step altogether by choosing fabrics that don't need to be ironed. Luckily, a lot of the on-trend fabrics for spring fit the bill. Lightweight leather is huge for spring, and doesn't wrinkle. Also, linen is perfect for warmer temperatures, since it's meant to be slightly wrinkled.

Wear a Bright Dress
A dress -- hands down -- is the easiest type of clothing to wear. You don't need to worry about mixing and matching separates; just slip it on and you're done. Choose a cute springy style, like a brightly colored sundress. Pair with a simple pair of flats and a lightweight jacket, and you're out the door.

Add Some Hair Flair
Fun, sparkly hair accessories (otherwise known as "hair flair") are a huge trend for spring, and they were all over the Fashion Week runways. But they're actually a huge time saver, too. Styling your hair is generally the longest part of your morning routine, but if you have a cute piece of hair flair -- like a sparkly headband or clip, you can skip styling and just add in a hair accessory. It takes seconds and creates the illusion that you've got a fancy hairstyle. Plus, it looks just as cute if you're wearing your hair down or up in a simple pony.

Go For a Bold Print
If you aren't into the whole dress thing, go for a blouse in a bright geometric print or floral. A bold print is perfect for shaving off time during your morning routine, because you won't need to think about accessories. When you're wearing a design or print, you want to keep everything else very simple. You don't need a statement necklace or a stack of bangles, because the print serves as your outfit's standout piece.
