Dress for your body. Not the other way around.
Not a Skinny Mom Project helps women dress with proportion, intention, and confidence for the body and life they have right now.
Dress with intention
Build lasting confidence
Clothes that fit, last, and work for your life.
Not a Skinny Mom Project is not what you think.
The name is the hook. The mission is bigger.
Fashion has spent decades convincing women that if clothes don't work, their bodies are the problem. I believe the opposite.
Style isn't about labels, trends, or chasing whatever your feed decided was in this season. It's about understanding your body, dressing with intention, and building a wardrobe that makes you feel confident every day.
When you understand proportion, you stop guessing. When you shop with intention, you stop wasting money on clothes you'll never wear. Confidence becomes the result not the goal.
No Shein hauls. No Amazon carts full of things you'll return. No chasing trends that were never designed for your body in the first place.
Through one-on-one styling and practical wardrobe guidance, I help women create closets they love and the confidence to wear them.
Because style isn't about becoming someone else.
My philosophy is simple:
Proportion.
Intention.
Confidence.
Style is power. First impressions are real. And you deserve to own yours.
04 / Garment center insider / Wife / Mom of three
A garment-industry eye for the body you have now.
I spent years in New York's garment center learning the industry from the inside. Production manager by training. Fashion designer in my head. I learned what separates a well-made garment from a cheap one, how fabric drapes, where seams should sit, and what a proper cut actually feels like. Then my body changed after kids, and it was harder than ever to find clothes that worked. If it was hard for me, I know it is hard for others. Not a Skinny Mom Project is my answer to that.
- FIT graduate. 15+ years NYC garment production and import.
- From sketch to delivery. I know every step of how clothes are made.
- Worked hands-on with Italian patternmakers and NYC's finest sewing contractors.
- Classic, elegant, a little edgy. Never without comfort.
Getting dressed should feel good. Let's make that happen.
Every session is built around your body, your lifestyle, and what actually works for both. No trends, no pressure, no one-size-fits-all approach.

Add-ons
Closet Edit $200
Review what you own, recent purchases, or both. Together, we'll create outfits, decide what stays or goes back, and identify what's still missing.
Event Styling $100 flat
For an interview, wedding, speaking engagement, date night, or any moment when you need one outfit nailed—not a whole wardrobe overhaul.
It is not about hiding. It is about directing the eye.
Getting dressed is about proportion and intention. Wide leg pants, a blazer, a neckline, a hem, a fabric with weight: every choice changes where the eye goes and how the whole outfit feels. The goal is not to chase trends or force your body into a size. The goal is to understand your own proportions and build clothes around them.
Proportion first
Every body distributes weight differently. The right outfit creates balance for your shape, not someone else's.
Intention over impulse
No Shein hauls. No Amazon carts full of things you’ll return. No chasing trends that weren’t made for your body anyway.
Confidence through clarity
When you know why something works, shopping and getting dressed stop feeling random.
Practical notes on fit, proportion, shopping, and closets.
Style notes are coming soon. I will break down the things stores do not teach you: why clothes pull, why proportions matter, what quality feels like, and how to shop with a clearer eye.
Coming soon
New style notes are on the way.
