NO: Can you tell our readers a little about yourself?
SIMONE: My name is Simone, Owner of Styled by S.Vee. I am a certified personal stylist as well a mental health professional. My goal is to assist women who may be struggling to find themselves after Life Changing events. I provide women with the confidence that she once had by developing strategies that can be used for mental health and creating a wardrobe that matches the new “Her”. I also sell thrift items and accessories have a blog that discusses fashion.
NO: Can you define being a survivor in your own words?


NO: The State of the Plus Size industry is ever changing. What are your views on the state of the plus size industry?
SIMONE: I think the current state of the kurvy/plus size industry is in a positive place. I feel that progress has been made within the last ten years. There is more representation of kurvy women in the media and in the everyday world. I think that we are in era where women are embracing their natural bodies and realizing it ok to have curves. There are more stylist, designers, and boutiques that are focused dressing kurvy women.
NO: What’s the one thing you would tell a young girl struggling with her self-esteem and embracing her kurves?

NO: What do you want your legacy to be?
