Are you suffering Repetitious Wardrobe Complex?
POLYCHROMATIC ANGUISH SYNDROME
YOU’RE not confident with colours, so you stick to black, navy or beige. Online shopping is great here, says Dawnn.
In the comfort of your home, scroll through items casually, which may lessen anxiety. Then you can walk into a store with a goal in mind — preventing you from feeling overwhelmed.
REPETITIOUS WARDROBE COMPLEX
YOU tend to wear the same outfit all the time. There’s nothing intrinsically wrong with this — it’s one less thing to think about.
But if you feel stuck in a rut, start slow and build up.
Stay with tried-and-tested outfits and try out a daring accessory or a new colour. Don’t try to change everything at once.
MOOD ILLUSTRATION
YOU dress to perpetuate your mood. Maybe you throw on a worn-out sweater and a pair of tatty jeans.
It might be that it is just one of those days when you don’t feel like making an effort, but it could be that you are unintentionally saying that you’re not OK. It’s below awareness — you’re not conscious of what you’re doing.
MOOD ENHANCEMENT
YOU dress to optimise your mood. When happy, you go for patterns, bright colours or fabulous accessories to reinforce that feeling of contentment.
If you are low, it can help to wear something cheerful — like putting on armour.
You are choosing your own mood rather than allowing the world to dictate it.
