It turns out there’s actually a name for it.
Pandemic life took fashion in a whole new direction.
The world went from workwear and pants with zippers to at-home tie-dye and monochromatic sweatsuits.
Apparently, it made people happier, too.
Basically, it’s a quirky way to say dressing for fun instead of for a typical purpose.
“Now we have this freedom they are saying, I’m going to dress outrageous.
I’m going to wear stuff that shows,” she tells Vogue.
“I’m going to be out there and really be seen.”
This fashion mindset is leading to the term “dopamine dressing”.
Simply wear the colors and styles that make you happy and you’re doing it right.
There are tons of different colors that spark joy in different people.
For example, cool and warm colors emote different feelings.
“There are some interpretations of colours that are universal,” fashion psychologist Shakaila Forbes-Bell tellsHarper’s Bazaar.
If you’re looking to stock up on some more colorful styles, you’re not alone.
According toThe Washington Post, consumer shopping habits have shot up in 2021.
Not sure where to start with dopamine dressing?
