Signature style: "Classy but sassy. I like to add a bit of flair to every outfit. It might be a colorful scarf, a beautifully crafted piece of jewelry or strikingly bold shoes."
Best finds: "Great designer pieces — shirts, dresses, skirts, scarves and shoes — at the Premium Outlet Malls. My favorite is the North Georgia Premium Outlet Mall in Dawsonville."
Fashion weakness: "Designer purses — I try to treat myself to a least one a year."
Favorite stores: "Off 5th, Last Call by Neiman Marcus, Marshalls, Arden B. and T.J. Maxx."
Fashion inspiration: "My sisters and my dad. My dad worked for 40 years in the corporate setting and his pet peeve was making sure you always dressed and acted the part. My favorite fashion motto: I can deal with anything if I have the right shoes."
Pet peeve: "Not trusting yourself to create your own personal style. Never let fashion dictate who you are; dictate your own fashion style. Always go with what is most flattering and comfortable for you. We all look good in something."
Best fashion compliment: "Being contacted by The AJC for this piece — with the surprise that one of my nurses, Natalie Toomer, nominated me for this story. My nurses are always giving me wonderful scarves and jewelry to accent my outfits, because they know how I love fashion."
