Easy pieces from $14 for lovers of ‘dopamine dressing’
When the weather starts to change, use pops of colour to elevate your mood in the time-honoured tradition of ‘dopamine dressing’. It’s the device of using particular colours or textures to trigger the release of the mood-boosting hormone of dopamine. These pieces featuring cheerful floral accents, bold colours and playful details showcase this style. If you are new to feel-good dressing, dip your toe in with an accessory or be brave and keep going until you have created a top-to-toe look.
