Betsy's Bio

The single keyword that best describes Betsy Karp; is 'Authentic'. She is a fashion designer/stylist, chef/radio show co-host, and certified health and wellness counselor. She is merging her 20 years in the NYC Fashion Industry and her undying passion for Italian/Moroccan cuisine. She layers fashion sense with her health counseling, creating a unique, blend of flavors. "i adore me" is a physical connection for how you feel and how you are perceived (in the world) to the real, authentic you.

Betsy graduated Syracuse University in 1986. She went on to work for Ralph Lauren, Banana Republic, Victoria Secret and had even created her own fashion label. In her traveling to Hong Kong, Beijing, South Korea, she was sent to identify and capitalize on emerging fashion trends. Upon her return, she went on to creating her own fashion label (Betsy Karp) and designed scarves and textiles for Bill Blass, Echo, Kenneth Cole, and even designed watches for Movado.

In 1998-2001
Ms. Karp has an incredible "joie de' vivre". She has traveled all over the world. Among the stops in her voyage journey, Paris, Rome, London, Milan, and the Far East. She had lived in Florence, Italy for two years with an Italian family studying painting and cooking while indulging in the culture; hook, line and sinker. Her passion for these unique dishes took her to cooking school in Morocco blending exotic spices and flavors to create a healthy and sensual way of eating. She additionally combined color palettes into the fine art of chic Italian cuisine.

She began to explore infusing her food and fashion, nurturing people form the inside, out to express new ways of seeing and being from the center — we want to express that in what we wear and how we feel.

Today Betsy merges her talents into a unique new brand called "i adore me" (Infused Food and Fashion).

[Just say it aloud, "I Adore Me" softly or loudly, however it feels right for you and see how powerful you really are!]

Her passion and mission is to have people understand that life is about enjoying "What you eat and what you wear; inspiring health from the inside, out. When we take care of ourselves, we value who we are and this affects to the core of our being. It is then that we can allow ourselves enjoyment, a true connection, with others, in a stunning way."

Come and join Betsy on this journey and see how enlightened, healthy and fashionable you will become!
