🎤 Speaking Highlight: The WELL Consortium

On Wednesday, April 30, I had the honor of speaking at The WELL Consortium, where I presented “Dressing to Empower: Unleashing Power Through Your Wardrobe.”

It was such an inspiring event filled with powerful women, and I loved sharing how the right wardrobe can fuel confidence, presence, and purpose. Your clothing isn’t just fabric — it’s your first impression, your energy, and your voice before you even speak.

Thank you to everyone who attended — let’s keep empowering through style!

Thank you to Donna Marie Cozine for asking me to speak!

👟 My Go-To Water Shoe for Summer Adventures

If you're planning beach days, poolside lounging, lake trips, or anything that involves water — I’ve found the perfect summer shoe that blends comfort and style!

I recently tried the Aleader Women’s Mesh Slip-On Water Shoe, and I was seriously impressed. These aren’t your typical bulky water shoes — they’re lightweight, breathable, and easy to slip on and off.

Here’s what I love about them:
✔️ Breathable mesh design – keeps your feet cool and dries quickly
✔️ Slip-on style – no laces, no hassle
✔️ Comfortable enough for walking, not just water
✔️ Supportive sole with good grip – great for slippery spots

Whether you're heading out on vacation or just spending more time outdoors this summer, these are a must-have!

👗 One Top, Four Stylish Looks

This week, I’m showing how you can take one simple base — a black and white patterned top with black pants — and create four distinct outfits just by layering!

Here’s how I styled it:
1️⃣ Base look by itself – clean, classic, and effortless
2️⃣ With a black short sleeve cardigan – adds a soft, casual touch
3️⃣ With a short sleeve black blazer – polished and modern
4️⃣ With a long sleeve black blazer – strong, structured, and professional

✨ A great reminder that you don’t need a closet full of clothes — just the right pieces and a little styling strategy!

Which version is your favorite?

👗 Why Personal Styling Is a Game-Changer

A closet that isn’t working for you can quietly drain your time, money, and confidence — more than you may realize.

If getting dressed feels stressful, repetitive, or just plain frustrating, you're not alone. Many women have closets full of clothes but nothing they want to wear.

That’s where personal styling comes in.

I help women build wardrobes that actually work for their lives — saving stress, saving time, and making getting dressed FUN again. ✨

Whether it’s a closet refresh, shopping with purpose, or creating outfits you’ll love wearing, personal styling takes the guesswork out of style so you can feel confident every day.
