Dopamine Dressing For Winter
Dopamine dressing is about mood boosting clothing and dressing for happiness. As it’s something that’s usually associated with bright colours, fabrics and textures, there’s a tendency to think it’s just for summer. However, with the right attitude, winter clothing can be just as colourful, just as joyous and ultimately uplifting.

How does your clothing make you feel?
Many of us have items we’ve worn in the past that remind us of special moments or just something that makes us smile. It’s good to sometimes look at your wardrobe and think, what makes me happy?
Children have a knack for doing this as they are so uninhibited. Wearing a fairy costume or a spiderman outfit to the supermarket, is actually a wonderful thing. Choose to dress like a superhero or a ballerina is not exclusive to children and is something that we can all emulate in some way.
