Welcome once again to the editorial collaboration between yours truly and Curve’s Revealed Magazine! In this editorial, we’re dedicating some hurray for Dopamine [Under]dressing. Hurray!
You’ve heard of “dopamine dressing” before, right? It’s a term coined by Fashion Psychologist, Dawnn Karen, and it’s the idea that dressing in mood boosting colors or wearing what you love can up your happiness. It’s usually bold blazers and fun pants but this is also (if not especially) true when it comes to undergarments, swimwear, and sleepwear.
Sleepwear, especially, has a powerful opportunity to affect your mood and that will affect your night’s sleep and the mood in which you wake. Excited? Let’s explore what it means to wear comfortable materials and deep saturated colors on our bodies so that we feel great, sleep well, and say hurray!

This is part 2 of 7, and now it’s time to explore Shadowline®! This brand is a classic in the sleepwear and underwear category, with die hard fans and a cult following, and their team is just darling. Many of their styles are more traditional, and their designs range from downright sexy to “Golden Girl Chic”, which is something I love leaning into, if I’m honest! Their designs can be worn by folks of all ages, and offer a great mix of elegance and casual comfort.
This brand is especially known for their materials and fabrics. And this Opacitrique® fabric provides all the breathability and comfort of traditional nylon, with a modest look you can wear in front of guests, or to answer the doorbell. And is there anything more elegant than a coordinating sleep set with a pretty top and bottom and sweeping, long robe? Ah! You’ll go to bed feeling refreshed and regal. Hurray! Shop it for yourself and see what I mean.
