What makes your style stand out?

I have never thought of myself as a style icon. I have struggled with weight all my life until recently. I didn’t like to look in the mirror even though I was confident in myself as a person. Then I got help with a Glp1 shot and lost almost 50 pounds. I started exercising and playing tennis. I could finally look at myself in a mirror and know that how I felt on the inside matched my reflection. I started buying new clothes and tailoring clothes to fit my new body! It has been fun!

What’s your dream fashion moment?

Wearing a beautiful gown for my son’s wedding. It was a silk sleeveless fitted gown with a modest slit. The colors were brilliant blue and pinks in a contemporary floral pattern. I bought 2 more of the same dress and designed a wrap sleeve for the upper arms and a classic shawl. I loved the way it looked and made me feel! If I had a future “dream” fashion moment it would be to help others feel as good as I felt that day.

What would you do with $20,000?

Probably buy more clothes! Experiment more with different looks, colors and textures. Have fun with fashion!
