Confessions of a
Fashion and Style Fanatic
am Linda Waisbord and I am a fashion and style
fanatic! As a young girl, I wouldn’t leave the house
until my outfit and hair were perfect! My family and I
laugh about it now because I guess I was just born
like this. I’ve always been fascinated by clothes and
I have learned that experimenting is the best way to discover
what makes you feel your best.
Now that I’m older and “wais-er,” I realize that true style comes
from courage and attitude.
I’m a regular woman with a regular body and all the imperfections
that come along with that, but that’s ok! Fashion is art, emotion
and self-expression! It is saying something without having to
speak. It conveys a message about who you are and how you feel
at any moment in time.
My joy every day comes from getting dressed and inspiring
women to have the confidence to give fashion a try.
Throughout my career as a Personal Stylist for Nordstrom, I
learned that most women limit themselves to what they can
wear based on false perceptions of their bodies, making it very

difficult for them to try different silhouettes, proportions and fits.
I am constantly trying different things, sometimes getting it right
and sometimes getting it wrong, but ultimately always learning
and growing into the best version of myself, because fashion and
personal style is constant experimentation and evolvement.
I have always imagined myself being able to reach a wide
audience of women through fashion and style so I’m beyond
excited to be joining the Giving Back Magazine team where I will
be able to share fashion tips, style inspiration, trend reports and
articles to inspire and empower women of all ages and sizes to
enjoy fashion.
So, let’s go on this journey together and let me inspire you to try!
My goal is for women to look at me and say: “You know what? If
she can do it, so can I.” Have the courage to try, step out of your
comfort-zone and let me help you along the way!
