Occupation: Case manager with Aetna.
Signature style: "Dresses, heels and big jewelry are my favorite. I choose articles of clothing that speak to me. Bright colors or bold textures that excite the eye fill my closet."
Best finds: "Rawhide Italian boots from a thrift store for 10 bucks."
Fashion weakness: "Boots, boots, boots! Ankle-high, calf-high, cowboy, knee-high, mid-thigh, flat, wedge, high-heeled, stilettos — I don't discriminate when it comes to boots."
Favorite stores: "Any consignment or thrift store. Loehmann's department stores, Stein Mart and Marshalls are a few of my favorites as well."
Fashion inspiration: "Growing up, my aunt Emma was the most stylish woman I had ever seen. I also like the style of Jennifer Lopez and the late Lena Horne."
Pet peeve: "Ill-fitting jeans. All jeans are not created equal; don't give up when trying to find the right pair!"
Best fashion compliment: "Being a plus-size woman, I love it when the thin women ask me 'Where did you find that?' "
