Introduction

True transformation always begins within. As women of faith, we’re called to see ourselves as God sees us—fearfully and wonderfully made, worthy of love, and designed with intention. My new book, “How to Dress for Your Body Shape,” is more than a style guide; it’s an invitation to align your outer wardrobe with your inner identity, embracing confidence, grace, and purpose in every outfit.


Seeing Yourself Through God’s Eyes

Before we talk about silhouettes or colors, let’s start with vision. What do you see when you look in the mirror? The world tries to define beauty in narrow, shifting ways, but Scripture reminds us that our worth is unchanging.

“People look at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart.” (1 Samuel 16:7)

My book encourages you to see your unique body shape as a reflection of God’s creativity—not a problem to be fixed, but a canvas to be celebrated. When you shift your perspective from comparison to gratitude, you unlock a new level of self-acceptance and joy.


Speaking Life Over Your Style

Words have power. How we speak about ourselves—internally and out loud—shapes our confidence and self-expression.In “How to Dress for Your Body Shape,” I guide you through faith-based affirmations and practical style statements that build you up, not break you down. Imagine standing in front of your closet and declaring, “I am beautifully made. My body deserves clothes that honor my shape and my spirit.”

This isn’t about vanity; it’s about stewardship. Dressing well is a daily act of self-respect and gratitude, reflecting the beauty God placed within you.


Receiving Your Wardrobe as a Gift

Your wardrobe isn’t just a collection of clothes—it’s a toolkit for living out your calling. The book offers step-by-step guides for every body shape (Apple, Pear, Hourglass, Athletic, Strawberry), helping you discover what flatters you best while staying true to your faith and values.You’ll learn:


  • How to identify your shape with grace (no judgment, just understanding)

  • Outfit formulas that make getting dressed effortless and joyful

  • Tips for building a capsule wardrobe that simplifies your mornings and supports your lifestyle

  • How to align your clothing choices with your spiritual identity


Style as a Form of Worship

When you dress with intention—choosing pieces that honor your body, your faith, and your season of life—you’re practicing a form of worship. You’re saying, “Thank you, God, for the gift of my body. Help me reflect Your love and light in all I do.”


A New Chapter: Fashioned by Faith

As we approach the launch of “How to Dress for Your Body Shape,” I invite you to join this journey of faith-fueled transformation. Let’s move beyond trends and comparison. Let’s build wardrobes that empower us to serve, lead, and shine—inside and out.

Are you ready to see, speak, and receive the confidence God has for you?Stay tuned for book launch details, exclusive guides, and a community of women cheering you on every step of the way.


With grace and confidence,

Audra
