Hello, friends. I have a little secret to share with you. Without quite realising it, you've been coming on a personal style journey with me. For the last few years I've been quietly figuring out where I want to go with the way I dress — and honestly, it's taken me longer than I expected. Big changes in life change you as a person too, and somewhere in that process I lost the thread of what felt like mine when it came to my personal style. What I've gradually found my way back to — and what's been inspiring me enormously lately — are women who dress in a deeply individual way, using clothing as genuine self expression. Colour, print, layering, unexpected combinations. Women who get dressed in the morning like it means something. That is dopamine dressing. And it's what's been shaping everything I've been making this winter. If you haven't come across the term before — dopamine dressing is the idea that what you wear directly affects how you feel. Psychologists call it enclothed cognition — the proven concept that clothing has the power to shift your mood, your energy, and how you move through your day. It's about using your wardrobe as a tool for how you want to feel. What I love most about it is how the use of colour leads to a feeling of freedom. The combining of colours in a way that feels considered and personal. A quiet colour layered under a print. A contrast accessory that pulls everything together. Choices that are yours, not everyone else's. This winter I've been building pieces that make exactly that kind of wardrobe possible. And this week I want to show you how I'd wear them. Today I'm sharing two outfits built around our Zora print knit, paired with pieces from our Colourburst collection, as my version of what dopamine dressing looks like. These are combinations I would wear on a daily basis — and I hope they offer you some inspiration on how to start weaving a little dopamine dressing into your own wardrobe
