My style is edgy yet romantic, mixing classics with bold twists. I’m passionate about slow fashion and pre-loved finds.
What makes your style stand out?
My style stands out because I build on classic lines, then disrupt them with bold twists, unexpected textures, and statement accessories. Every outfit becomes a story of self-expression, evolving with mood and moment. What makes it uniquely mine is the way I carry it: confidence woven into each look, natural hair embraced as part of the style itself, and details that spark compliments wherever I go. My style isn’t just clothing, it’s narrative, attitude, and artistry, all on display.
What’s your dream fashion moment?
My dream fashion moment would be attending Milan Fashion Week and experiencing a Versace show in person. The drama, glamour, and bold vision of the brand perfectly align with my own love of style as a statement and self-expression, and being in Milan, a city where fashion is a way of life, would be unforgettable! Being featured in Flaunt magazine would be a dream come true, a chance to showcase my style while celebrating my journey as both a modern muse and a proud mom.
What would you do with $20,000?
In today’s economy, and as a mom who has experienced a layoff, I would be practical and save most of it to create security and future opportunities for my family. At the same time, I would donate a meaningful portion to my local Dress for Success chapter, where I volunteer, to help empower more women with the confidence, tools, and support they need to thrive.
