WEAR: DOPAMINE DRESSING FOR EVERY WOMAN

You’ve heard about it, you’ve read about it, but have you tried it?

Dopamine, a neurotransmitter, is often referred to as the ‘happy hormone’. Essentially, dopamine dressing is finding joy in the items of clothing you choose to wear.

After the pandemic we’ve seen an influx of colour, colour-blocking and vivid patterns that bring a sense of much needed optimism and joy.

Now I know a lot of you are still sticking to neutrals and monochrome outfits. With this fashion entry, I hope to encourage you to push the limits within your own wardrobe.

Expressing your individual style through clothing in a way that ‘sparks joy’ is a very personal and powerful tool. Are you using your outfit choices to hide from Photography: the world and simply blend in? Are you using colour to express your individuality and mood? How and where you add colour to your wardrobe is what defines your personal style. I believe dopamine dressing is for every woman!

Here are some locating questions I like to ask my clients before I start working with them:

1. What have you been wearing in the last week?

2. How have you decided on what to wear? Do you just go for the most comfortable, most neutral item in your wardrobe?

3. Think about what you are wearing right now. Does it make you feel joy? Does it make you feel strong? Or do you rather not want to think about it?

4. And then take all those emotions you have just identified and ask yourself- how does that influence how you see yourself and therefore how you show up in your world?

If you have read through these questions and find yourself frustrated with your answers, have a look at a recent dopamine Style Video I did:
