From your head to your toes, you should feel great in what you wear. Our clothing and jewellery choices say a lot about us both as people and also the vibe we want to give off on a given day.
We’ve said it before, but the 90’s are back and that includes colourful, bright outfits that break traditional fashion rules (orange top, pink trousers, anyone?) and help your confidence shine through.
But what good is a bright and bold wardrobe without gorgeous colourful jewellery to match? Don’t stop at your clothing, finish your dopamine wardrobe off with the perfect multi-coloured jewellery and you’ll be nailing the dopamine dressing trend.
What is Dopamine Dressing?
Essentially, dopamine dressing is wearing clothing and accessories that make you feel great. A great outfit makes you stand out from the crowd, and what stands out more than bright, vibrant colours and patterns? You may even subconsciously dress according to your mood or how confident you’re feeling when you wake up that morning. And let’s face it, we don’t roll out of bed every day singing ‘I woke up like dis’, Beyonce style. Some days we want to take more of a backseat, others we want to be front and centre. Colour plays an important part in this.
What are the Benefits of Dopamine Dressing?
Dopamine dressing makes you feel good. Wearing clothing and accessories that complement your shape, skin tone and personality boosts your confidence.
It can be as simple as looking in the mirror and liking what you see, or you might get a boost from receiving compliments from friends, family, or work colleagues. Either way, dressing and accessorising to suit your personality and style makes you feel good throughout the day.
Spruce Up for Summer
With the sunshine comes a full array of brightly coloured clothes and accessories. With everything from earrings to footwear bursting with colour, you can style your outfit based on the colour of even the smallest of accessories. Whether that’s a gorgeous emerald ring or some classic sapphire earrings.
Stunning royal hues have seen a great resurgence in recent years, with luscious greens and royal blue lining the racks of fashion retailers throughout the country. And the best news is that blue and green complement one another perfectly.
For a timeless, elegant look, style your fave blue blazer with blue stone jewellery or channel Kate Middleton with a pair of stylish skinny jeans, white pumps and a T, and a green blazer offset by eye-catching emerald green jewellery.
If you’re more punk than posh, jazz up your summer wardrobe with some beautiful purple jewellery from our collection of birthstone jewellery. Or match the summer sunshine and pick out something beautiful featuring a yellow or orange gemstone stone.
Subtle Dopamine Dressing – Perfect Pastel Colours
Nothing says summer quite like a bright blue, crystal clear sky. The perfect match for this is blue topaz jewellery. The colour of topaz is simply stunning, and it reflects the light beautifully. A topaz ring featuring sparkling diamonds makes the perfect pairing for a white flowing dress; it’s no wonder lots of people choose topaz earrings as their ‘something blue’ on their wedding day – perfect for a whimsical summer wedding. Another perfect pastel colour to complete your spring/summer look is pink. Even though pale pink gemstones don’t shout as loudly as other stones, the rarity of a gorgeous bracelet or necklace featuring a pink gemstone will make it stand out and become a real talking point.
Let Your Wardrobe Reflect Your Feelings
Flirt with danger, make your statement, be bold. Red has long been the colour of passion, love, and sensuality. So if you’re feeling daring or you want to stand out, red is the colour for you.
Red is a colour on the style charts that never dates. Whether it’s a sexy little red dress, a pair of killer red heels worn with your favourite denims, or just a dash of red lippy to make a gorgeous black outfit pop – the colour red is perfect whether it forms part of your wardrobe, makeup regime, or jewellery collection.
Red stone jewellery looks gorgeous paired with your red accessories such as a red bag or shoes.
Powerful, passionate, and seductive. Red is a statement colour that really draws the eye. A slick of red lippy perfectly complemented by a pair of ruby earrings or a statement ruby necklace is all you need to stand out on a night out with the girls or that hot date you’ve been waiting for. Match your nails to your ensemble and you’ve got a polished and powerful look people won’t forget in a hurry.
Does Dopamine Dressing Really Work?
Dopamine dressing definitely works, but it doesn’t have to mean wearing an outfit costing hundreds of pounds. It’s about your personal style. You might feel at your best rocking the casual tracksuit and trainers look that became a wardrobe staple during lockdowns. Pair this cool and casual look with a stylish watch and a pair of gold hoops or a chunky gold bracelet and you’ll look and feel every bit as gorgeous as you would at a black tie event.
Dopamine dressing is all about what makes YOU feel good. So, rock the look you love this summer, pair that look with the perfect jewellery, take a selfie, and go show the world who you are.
You got this.
