This year the Miss USA pageant was abuzz about body image and no one was talking about the winner. It was all about Miss Indiana and her “normal” body that was causing a stir on social media. I was invited as a panelist along with Miss Long Island, Michelle Medoff to discuss body image on the Pix11 Morning Show in New York City.…
Have you ever wanted to call in sick to work because you had cramps, heavy bleeding, been emotionally and physically exhausted and didn’t feel like being half naked in a room full of people, where you are the main focus? I found myself facing that very situation. At a recent shoot for O, the Oprah Magazine, where I’d been asked to model lingerie for their yearly Body Issue, a testament to body love and self acceptance, but this time, I couldn’t call out sick.
As I walked into the brightly lit photography studio, I saw the racks of nude lingerie awaiting me, as well as my co-model for the shoot, a beautiful, elegant size-zero model resembling Lupita Nyong’o.…

I’m late in writing a big THANK YOU to the incredible and powerful Women of Integrity. Their mission is to empower and educate women of all ages and ethnicities through work shops and leadership activities (now that’s my kind of people).

“Bernadett is more than an image consultant — she was able to take my outlook on life and myself from ok to awesome in one short session. Her posing lessons are also great for everyone, in every aspect of life. Even though it seems silly, my drivers license picture went from being horrible to wow — it’s amazing how something so simple can be such a boost to your self-esteem.…
One of the first things I tell my clients when we talk about their style is: When someone meets you for the first time it takes them 7 seconds to judge you and 10 more meetings for them to change their opinion of you.
