Fashion & Flat Whites: Sandy Smith
How would you describe your style?
My style is still evolving. I realized recently that I don't really know what I like so I've been taking the time to figure out what I like and what really looks good on me and not just accepting, "it fits" as good enough.
Have you always been interested in fashion?
I've always loved fashion. I learned to sew when I was about three and was always making my Barbie's the most insane outfits!
“I have good days and bad days- but I’ve gotten a lot kinder to myself. ”
How elegant does Sandy look in this polka dot piece? Wow!
What makes you excited about Mys Tyler?
Being able to see people who look like me in outfits has been such a game changer. Because of the amazing women of Mys Tyler I am no longer afraid of a french tuck a top into jeans. It seems like such a frivilous thing but confidence is truly priceless.
Let's talk about body confidence. It's a journey for us all, can you tell us about your journey?
I'm plus size and tall so nothing ever fits quite right. Knowing that I can sew or knit myself things that fit the way I want has helped me feel a lot more at home in my body. I'm by no means at a stage where I can call myself confident- I have good days and bad days- but I've gotten a lot kinder to myself.
