About Me
About Mary’s High Collar and Cuffs, The Regal Look, LLC
I’m from Ohio and married to my husband Rick. My journey in the fashion industry has been long and transformational. From a young age, I demonstrated a keen eye for style, which has since matured into a well-respected fashion intelligence. As someone deeply passionate about quality, I’ve always prioritized excellence over expansion in every wardrobe I curate.
Professional Journey and Contributions
Alongside creating maryshighcollarandcuffs.com and founding Mary’s High Fashion Institute, I am proud to share my knowledge as a public speaker. Noteworthy engagements include speaking at the Ewomen’s Network in 2023 on Getting Your Celebrity Style On in 2024 and hosting events as The Host at the Michael Kors store in Cincinnati, OH. These platforms allowed me to sell and discuss my book, Excuse Me Mary But Your Cleavage is Showing, and advise on elevating my style.
Modeling for boutique designer Felisa Insignares in Ole Montgomery, OH, and appearing in the West Chester Liberty Lifestyle magazine (Sep 2021 issue) with the “Express Yourself,” feature are other significant highlights of my career. My role as a model has provided rich insights into fashion dynamics, which I translate into personalized style coaching.
Philosophy and Impact
I aim to enable women to explore and express their personal styles uniquely tailored to their personalities and lifestyles. By helping women understand the narrative behind what they wear, I empower them to build timeless wardrobes that reflect their identities and propel them toward personal and professional goals. I advocate for fashion as a form of pre-introduction; how one dresses often speaks volumes before exchanging a word.
Whether guiding women to articulate their essence through their attire or sharing key strategies to attract and build vital relationships, my ultimate aim is to unlock doors to new opportunities, financial gains, and community building.
Speaker and Public Engagements
With a Communications degree and over 25 years of experience addressing medium to large audiences, I bring style and substance to any speaking engagement. My early ability to coordinate outfits, demonstrated when I styled a memorable pink and white gingham dress at eight years old, reflects my lifelong dedication to fashion and self-expression.
As the founder of Mary’s High Collar and Cuffs, a new and upcoming high-end personal fashion stylist consultancy, I share in this book how I overcame living with a distorted self-body image to embody The Immortal Haute Couture Bespoke One of a Kind Form. This transformation is reflected in the outward visible garment representing my new spirit.
