July is here, which means the rains are here too. The skies will be overcast and days gloomy. Does the weather make you sad too?

Research says yes. This change in moods with the change in season is called 'seasonal depression.' Embracing colour is one way to feel better during this gloomy season. Colour, according to fashion designer Lilly Pulitzer, affects people's moods. Colour psychology also suggests that red, orange and yellow evoke feelings of warmth and comfort. In contrast, purple, green and blue evoke feelings of calm.

Outfit of the Month for women and kids: Elle Edition

There is yet another quirky point: your clothing selections are a mirror of your unique personality. Every pattern on your clothes, whether a simple solid or a simple flower pattern, says something about who you are. For instance, stripes are frequently associated with a formal, goal-oriented mentality. At the same time, florals are linked to an outgoing, hospitable, and friendly demeanour.
