The Style Lyfe

Empress Bey is the founder and creative force behind The Style Lyfe, a transformational styling brand rooted in identity, presence, and wholeness. Established in 2016 and rededicated in 2025, her work helps women remember who they truly are, proving that success should never require the sacrifice of self.

More than a personal stylist, Empress approaches fashion as embodiment. Through wardrobe transformation and intentional creative direction, she guides women to show up refined, rebuilt, and restored.

Her journey deepened in 2024 following a significant life transition and formal diagnosis of lupus, an autoimmune illness. Rather than retreat, she used that moment to redefine how she shows up for herself, her clients, and her community, reshaping her style, her standards, and her impact. Her Austin Fashion Week presentation, “LYFE: A Warrior’s Reign,” honors resilience, sovereignty, and the truth that even in chronic illness, a woman can reign.
