It’s an understood fact, The Willistonian discovered, that most people experience a less hectic morning, and even avoid morning crises, when they decide what they are going to wear the night before.

Some people work better and faster in the morning when they have their outfit planned, whether it is to have more time in the morning to get ready or to have more time to sleep in the morning. Others don’t care what they wear and grab the first thing they see in their closet.

Maggie Duffy, a junior student from Cumberland, Maine, does not usually pick her clothes the night before.

” I’m thinking about other things and the outfit falls to the bottom of the list,” she said.

Maggie has an idea about what she is going to wear, but is never fully sure until the outfit gets put on.

“I at least have one item in mind,” she said. “Like if there was a sweater I really wanted to wear, then I start brainstorming in my head. But I don’t really pick anything out the night before.”

“I do check the weather before I pick my outfits out,” she added.

Maggie feels less stressed when she already has everything picked out.

“If I wake up and already know what I am going to wear, I just plop it on and I’m like ‘Oh damn I’m ready to go,'”

Making a decisions in one place can take it out of another place, deciding that you want or pick your clothes out the night before can allow you to make and choice a healthier breakfast, according to a Medium post, which adds that when we simplify our morning and remove certain decisions and obstacles, we are more likely to make better decisions like eating a healthy breakfast.

Maggie works time to pick her outfit out in her morning routine, and if she’s struggling to decide what to wear, she said she’ll cut corners elsewhere.

Camden Tabb, a senior from Wilbraham, Mass., doesn’t give his outfit much thought.

“I never think too and always decide what to wear in the morning,” he said. This can have an impact after a while, he found out. “Once in a while when I’m low on clothes it takes longer to throw an outfit together,” he added.

Nina Coffee, a senior boarding student from Old Lyme, Conn., tries to plan ahead with her outfit the night before, and  finds her morning goes smoother when she picks her clothes out the night before.

“I like to have an idea because less rushed and more organized, and I don’t feel as indecisive in the morning,” she said. “I also feel I won’t like my outfit as much if I don’t think about it the night before.”
