Randy thought Matronista was a silly name.  I don't think he understood my vision.  The term "fashionista" has been batted about in recent years.  I didn't want to portray myself as that because that term means to me someone who is just fabulous ALL the frickin' time.  I simply am not fabulous all the time.
So I wanted a name that matched how I am feeling and Matron seemed to fit and the "ista" part just followed (and made the Matron part not seem to serious).

I have felt bad about myself for more years than I care to count. Just about all of my adult life.  Then something changed a year or so ago.  I came out of the fog and began to learn that I too was entitled to have fun, experiment with fashion, nails, makeup, etc.

I no longer felt like a monster and decided painting unicorns on my nails makes me very, very, very happy.  I want to encourage anyone who might know the feelings I had to join me and we will paint unicorns, flowers, butterflies, hearts or anything else we want to in our lives today!
