Like many others, I am always looking for ways to boost my mood throughout the day. From saffron supplements to breathing techniques to direct morning light, I am down to try any helpful tip I pick up along the way. One recent recommendation was to look into colors that lift the spirit and incorporate those hues into your wardrobe. As a shopping editor, my ears naturally perked up at the suggestion. Mood-boosting fashion? Yes, please.
In my deep dive into color, I came to find that yellow has been shown to increase serotonin. Serendipitously, I've recently been obsessed with all things butter yellow, so this was news to my ears. Any excuse to scoop up some of the pieces I had been eyeing, right? After all, it's for my mental health. Keep scrolling to shop 35 of my top yellow picks from Nordstrom. Then browse my many cool outfit ideas for inspiration on incorporating the revitalizing color.
