The Liz Earle Wellbeing Show

Do you have a go-to outfit that makes you feel good? On this episode of The Liz Earle Wellbeing Show, Liz is joined by fashion psychologist Shakaila Forbes-Bell. The pair chat about how fashion can impact our mood, well-being and behaviour. Liz and Shakaila also discuss dopamine dressing, how clothes can represent a discontinued identity, and take a look at colour psychology. Shakaila then shares advice on helping us find clothes that flatter, and why it may be time to ditch ‘fruit salad’ dressing.
