Might it be time to wean ourselves off dopamine dressing? Are we ready to graduate from the picture-book cheerfulness of rainbow colours, and slip into something more sophisticated. What do you think? Shall we give it a go? I’m game if you are. I don’t think we are ready to flip into stark black-and-white just yet, though, so a cosy, warm, sepia-toned neutral combo feels about right.
Let’s call it Choco-chrome: monochrome, but sweetened with a syrupy dash of rich brown. You know how a square of dark chocolate hits a sweet spot of being a sugary treat that feels grown up and refined? That is kind of what we are doing here. We are trading up, wardrobe-wise, from bingeing on Haribo-brights to nibbling on a piece of Green & Blacks 85% cocoa.
I don’t think it would serve any purpose to spell out the depressing roll-call of reasons why the world has been so in need of dopamine dressing over the past few years, suffice to say that there are times when Good Vibes Only is a necessary wardrobe prescription.
