I'm Back!!! And Looking For Models

So after a little time away I'm ready to get going again! I will be doing another fashion show at the Twin Falls County Fair again this year.
AND I NEED YOUR HELP
I need to find women and girls of all shapes, sizes and ages to model. The focus this year is on feeling good about yourself and everything you wear. All clothes will be "modest" (I hate using that word cause it sounds so boring) All models will be dressed in clothes that flatter their figure without showing too much skin. It was a great experience last year and alot of fun. we were even on the news!
More details to come

The fair is the first week of September, if you think you might be interested or know someone who is please leave a comment or email me

Body Image Classes

I have had several people enquiring about the body image classes, and if I still do them.
The answer is YES... I did slow down a bit because of Modbe going out of business, but these classes are still important soplease contact me if you are interested in me coming to speak to your group. And ofcourse I am still booking appointments for personal shopping as well.

I would love to help you out.

Photoshopped to Perfection

This is a movie I made for a presentation I did with young girls. They seemed amazed about how much photos are really changed and made to look so "perfect"

Watch This Video

A powerful video for a powerful cause: The health, wellbeing, high self worth, and positive body image of our girls and…us as valuable women of this world. We have achieved so much to push ourselves down, criticize ourselves and whisper in our own ears in the quiet of our minds that we are not enough, just as we are, at the weight we are, at the size we are. We are enough. Join in and end fat talk.

Are you in?? END FAT TALK week October 13-23rd

Body Image Fashion Show at the Fair

I was able to put on a fashion show at the county fair this year... I talked about having a positive body image through what you wear. We did before and after makeovers which were a ton of fun too!
Thanks to all that helped out.

The one question no woman wants to hear.....

I've spent the last 6 days at the fair, and I was able to meet a ton of fun people...fairs are always a good time. However, there is something that has weighed heavy on my mind, let me explain.

The night before the modbe body image fashion show I was getting all my models together, and I had the most darling bubbly girl stop by my booth. She was with her mom, and I begged them to be a part of the fashion show. The little girl aggreed and we started trying on swimsuits, we found just the one for her 12 year old body. She looked great and seemed really excited.

BUT....

The next day she showed up again with her mom, this time with a little different attitude, she came out of the dressing room complaining of the suit fitting "too tight," and her being "too fat" needless to say, she ended up not taking her spot in the fashion show that she had been so exstatic about.
Come to find out after talking to her mom, this little 12 year old girl had been asked "when are you due?" by another lady at the fair. That is the one question no woman wants to hear, but especially when you are only 12. I felt for her, and suddenly realized how that single comment will change that girls world forever.

I wished so bad I could give her back the confidence she had less than 24 hours before.

There's got to be a way, I hope I can figure it out and make a difference.
