Dopamine dressing

Row23 · 16/04/2025 07:06

I’ve always loved wearing pattern and colour, but I think I’ve been a bit scared of being too ‘out there’ so tended to stick to jeans and a colourful jumper for example. I’m now pregnant and wearing just the basic sort of maternity stuff and definitely feel don’t feel as fab as normal.
Just wondered if anyone had any go-to shops for lovely colourful clothes, or people they follow online for inspiration? Something I can look forward to post pregnancy!

You could choose something colourful for during and after your pregnancy? This stuff is fabulous:

I am not exactly a style icon but TikTok shop blew me away.

Thank you for all the suggestions 😊
I live on an island around the UK and Vinted and Tik Tok shop don’t really work here, and our local high street has very few shops, so I rely mostly on ordering clothes online. Makes it tricky to find things when you can never try them on as returns are also a bit of a faff!
I shall have a browse online tonight

Next seem to have quite a few patterned and colourful clothing at the moment.

The old favourites, fatface, seasalt, joe browns, not sure if they might all be a bit older styles though (I'm over 50 so can't tell!).
