Getting Started: My Journey into Style, Wellness & Affiliate Marketing
Welcome! I’m so glad you’re here. This blog marks the beginning of an exciting chapter for me where my love for fashion, design, wellness, and intentional living all come together.
After spending the last decade in brand design, I’ve learned how deeply colors impact us. Whether it’s a marketing campaign designed to build trust, spark appetite, or ease tension, the psychology of color is powerful and surprisingly so overlooked in our everyday lives.
That’s why I started Pips. I believe in the power of color to help support us throughout our day. This journey began with this simple truth. After years of using color in my daily life as a designer, I began to really think about how powerful color psychology can be to people who might not know much about it. So I began trying it. I intentionally began choosing outfits to support my mood. And I felt a difference. You know that feeling when you put on that outfit you feel great in? Or that color you feel like yourself in? I hope for more of that in our every day!
Brief Touch on Color Psychology
Color is an underestimated way to boost mood and energy. Most people think of color as something purely visual — about taste or what “looks good.” But it actually interacts with our physiology. It can influence our nervous system, hormone production, and even our heart rate.
For example, warmer hues like red and orange can trigger the release of adrenaline, increasing alertness and motivation. Cooler tones like blue and green can slow the heart rate, ease tension, and promote a sense of calm. Our bodies respond to color, often before our brains have even processed it.
(I will touch base more on this in a later blog, but this is just a short version!)
My goal
I believe that if we slow down and add intention to even the smallest parts of our day, we can shift our mood in small simple ways. I get the hustle of the every day — the morning rush, the quick choices, the autopilot routines. It’s easy to just throw on an outfit that’s either easy or comfortable, but try to be more intentional about the color choices you are making, and see how it makes you feel.
Subtle color cues throughout the day can leave us feeling calmer, more focused, more alive. Let’s make space for those moments. Because when we choose with intention, even in the smallest ways, we begin to shape how we feel, how we live, and who we become.
