A new year is upon us but, with the holiday season a distant memory and those back to work feels dominating - many of us are feeling down! Having enjoyed the fun and energy of the festive season, January can feel like a very long month indeed. However, we’re here to help all our Emma Wallace women with a simple mood boost.
Whilst these weeks can feel grey, injecting some colour into your wardrobe is the perfect way to lift you up and put a spring back in your step! Read on as we reveal the ways we’re adopting the ‘dopamine dressing’ trend to bring the fun in 2023.
Colourful Cheer
Here at Emma Wallace, we’re all about going big or going home when it comes to bold design choices! So, if you’re in need of a dopamine rush, then we’d opt for a head-to-toe look that brings the brightness. Our Lora Jumpsuit in daredevil red or cute cobalt blue delivers the perfect dose every time. The cowl neck and wide leg silhouette is effortlessly chic, whilst the jersey fabric keeps it comfy. The vivid shades will give you the pep you need to take on the month in style. Wear solo with platforms to head to dinner or wear over a colour clash roll neck jumper with sneakers for a more casual affair.
Pack A Punch With A Print
Who says office wear needs to be grey and dull? Inject some happiness into your meeting ready look with our Ida Dress. The high neckline and ruffled skirt is super stylish, but it’s the beautiful Chelonia print in emerald green that will have you smiling all day long. Wear with thick black tights and court shoes for a more corporate feel, or swap for a pair of knee high boots if your workplace has a lighter dress code.
Go Subtle With A Scrunchie
If head to toe colour scares you then it’s all about bringing in playful accessories that can add a splash without overpowering your look. We love our Luth Scrunchie in blue for a finishing touch that will catch everyone’s eye and lift your mood in one go! Prefer to wear your hair down? Our green Chelonia Headband works equally as well. Keep the rest of our outfit white and black and let that hero hair accessory do all the talking.
Co-Ord In Colour
Nothing quite brings that sunshine happiness like our Babu Jacket and Patti Trouser co-ord. The pumpkin orange shade is like lighting in a bottle, ready to give you that much needed energy boost! Effortless cool in style, we love that you can go all in with a matching look for those days when you need an extra lift, or you can mix it up when you don’t need to dial it up. Wear the jacket with a white tee and black trousers or rock the trousers with our white Hilda Shirt for a more paired back take on colour.
Dial Up The details
A pop of colour and print is sometimes all you need to put a smile back on your face. For a more laid-back approach to bringing brightness back this January, our Cam Jumper is a must. The cosy knit with a high neck and loose fit is the comfy essential we all crave, but it’s the printed tassel on the zip pull that always cheers us up. Bold and beautiful, these little details are all you need to light up the week.
Now you know how we’ll be bringing the energy in 2023, it’s time to get out there and make the most of what the new year has to offer. Don’t forget to tag us in your fresh selfies at @emmawallacedesigner.
