Lingerie is my first love. I’ve always been fascinated by beautiful, quality lingerie, as well as fashion and beauty. The impact of lingerie is why I’m in this business. Wearing lingerie is like keeping a secret no one else knows about — and it’s a good feeling. It feels sexy and empowering. To me, there’s nothing quite like lingerie. It’s more than just bras and underwear. It’s the only thing in your wardrobe that gives you pure, unadulterated confidence.
2. How do you define fashion and or style?
Fashion is the most outward form of self-expression. You dress based on your personality, your mood, or even your surroundings, and adapt your style to your changing tastes. As you develop personally, what you wear does, too.
3. What influences your style? ie travel, work, movies, magazines, social media trends, celebrities, color, etc.
Before the pandemic, traveling had a huge influence on my personal style. I’d take note of what other women all over the world would wear, and try out styles I admired.
These days, I get a lot of my style inspiration from movies, TV shows, social media, runway shows, and celebrities.
4. How has your style evolved?
My style is always evolving, and I don’t anticipate it stopping any time soon. I’m constantly inspired by a new trend or a new color. My personal style changes by the day, week, or year.
5. What does your dream wardrobe consist of?
Shoes, shoes, and more shoes. In my opinion, shoes are the most integral piece of an outfit. Any outfit can be elevated with the right shoes. Accessories, too. Both shoes and accessories are powerful pieces to pull a whole look together.
6. If you were to give fashion advice to your younger self what would it be?
I wouldn’t give any fashion advice to my younger self. I wouldn’t change a thing about what I’ve learned about fashion, or what I wore when I was younger. How we grow and change over the years is what makes us who we are today. I’m thankful for every experience that shaped me into the woman I am today.
7. How important is it to be body positive and to appreciate the skin that you're in?
Body positivity is a phrase we’ve been hearing a lot in recent years, but make no mistake, it’s not a trend. It’s a vital component of self-love and self-acceptance. Being body positive is extremely important and essential to building confidence.
Body positivity is more than just a mindset. It shows in everything we wear – starting with what’s underneath our everyday clothes. Bras and underwear make all the difference in how we feel in our bodies. If we’re constantly pulling up our bra straps, or picking at our underwear, we’re uncomfortable. We become more self-conscious of our bodies and less confident in what we’re wearing.
That’s why at LoveSuze, body positivity is in our brand DNA. We’re focused on making the best-fitting bras and underwear for all-day confidence and support. Our lingerie is designed with Flex-Sizing® fabrics to fit everybody flawlessly. So no matter what, you’re always comfortable and confident in your own skin.
8. What do you love about jewelry? What is your absolute favorite, is it earrings, necklaces, etc.
I love the versatility of jewelry. It can be dainty and subtle or add a dramatic statement to complete any outfit.
My favorite piece of jewelry is bracelets. I’ll forget every piece of jewelry – my wedding ring included – before I forget to put on a bracelet. I never leave home without one.
9. How do you incorporate accessories and jewelry into your daily looks?
The accessories and jewelry I choose really depend on the style of my outfit and the season. If I’m wearing a chic look with a higher collar top, for example, I’ll go for statement earrings over a necklace. Again, I always have a bracelet on, so that’s one piece of jewelry that will always be part of my outfits.
10. What are your non-negotiables... What must you have/wear/do? and what are your, “I’m never ever doing or wearing that”?
There’s nothing I wouldn’t try when it comes to fashion, but no matter what I’m wearing, I must have comfortable lingerie, period. There’s no if’s, and’s, or but’s with that one. Wearing bras and underwear that are comfortable is what makes me feel sexy and confident. It’s the first layer I put on, so it’s arguably the most important. My lingerie sets the tone for the rest of my outfit.
11. Tell us why you choose fashion and style. So what we mean by that is, we don’t have to dress up, we don’t have to adorn ourselves with jewels and embellish with accessories, but we do, we choose to… why do you?
Fashion allows us to express ourselves as our most confident selves.
I choose to dress the way that I do purely for myself. It doesn’t matter if I’m lounging at home or speaking at an event. I want to feel comfortable and confident in my body. And I think in their own way, everyone else, does too.
When your hair is on point, and your outfit is just right, you feel good. You walk into a room with this rush of confidence. You know the feeling. It’s powerful. It radiates, and everyone can see it.
12. What’s your favorite fashion/style quote or mantra?
“The right fit gives confidence.”
It’s the LoveSuze tagline and encompasses everything we stand for as a women-led team. When you feel good in what you’re wearing, it shows.
