Shop your closet for BETTER dopamine. There’s CHEAP dopamine: think incessant social media scrolling, Netflix binges, bordeom shopping AKA: short term indulgences that often lead to long term pain. Then there’s EXPENSIVE dopamine: high quality rewards for doing hard things that take some effort. Think: working out, talking a walk in nature, working on a project or shopping your closet to create a new outfit you’ve never worn before. It’s harder to do than shopping - so if you’re trying to shop less and use more of what you own, try this! #dopaminedetox #shopyourcloset #slowfashion #sustainableclothing #lowbuy #shopaholic #outfitrepeating

I feel the feeling spendy, seems like whenever I'm stressed I want to shop

So interesting you identify that feeling "spendy, wanting" because it really resonates. I have coping mechanisms for this feeling too!! And shopping the closet is a great one.

Lol it's like you're reading my mind 😂 I'm having a severe itch to buy new perfumes but I already own enough! Did some "detox" the past few days by rotating the ones I own and just spraying it everywhere, reminding me of why bought them in the first place (cause I like them!).

I lost weight and shopped a lot for new clothes , so 6 months ago I began a year no buy. I am making a list of any wants and will be interested to see how the list holds up over the next 6 months as I already crossed things off... Love this look!

Looks great on you, really leans into your three words, love the pointy toe sling backs with this!

Your title caught my eye and it make me smile. Will this be a series? Not crazy about the example, but that is just me, however, I will say I do enjoy dressing in fractions like your look, part structure, part unstructured. Would like to see more, please. Another example might be to go into your closet (if you can or with the lights off in your room,) and pull something together. It has always been fun to see what turns up. Just an idea. Enjoy!!

You won’t find me in that look, lol….. maybe a black handbag, I dunno, just not right for me.

I do oddly love those shoes with those pants! I think if we could see more of the shoe it wouldn’t work but the pants are the right length to only show the point and it works.

Maybe there is something to Alison’s wrong shoe theory!

Your More Money May reminds me of a YNAB More Money Challenge that is a helpful guide to reset your money habits.

Have you thought about having a challenge and have the ladies send in the look that is closest to your pick? That way, we all feel inspired together without spending more money and pay off ugly bills.
