SERVICES

Many men and women suffer esteem issues about their bodies.  They don’t like the way they look and have always chosen clothing to cover up.  Clothing and dressing can take on different meanings when used in this way. Generally, covering up is not the answer.

GROUP SEMINARS

Corporate Seminars to improve the appearance, productivity, and professionalism of executives, managers, and employees.

Tonia integrates the concept of how the effects of our internal thoughts impact our external appearance. We look at figure flaws and address how to camouflage them and, at the same time show you how to accentuate the positive aspects of your shape. Watch as she demonstrates creating balance and proportion and the styles that flatter your figure.

Attend one of Tonia’s regularly scheduled seminars in small intimate, interactive settings allowing for personal recommendations or join her in a larger group tailored to your needs. Watch models of different shapes and sizes demonstrate simple techniques.

Become educated on the power of appearance and learn to create a confident professional image that will leave a lasting impression on your colleagues, peers, family, and friends.

CLOSET OVERHAUL & ORGANIZATION

How many of us are guilty of having a closet full of clothes yet we still have nothing to wear? Busy schedules and emotional attachments get in the way of the much needed weeding out. We usually hang on to the clothing that doesn’t fit any more, vowing to some day be able to get back into them. And, we hang on to the clothing that reminds us of what we used to look like or how great we felt when we wore them.

Do you approach your closet with trepidation?  Worry about finding anything to wear in there?  Are you stashing outdated and outworn clothes in boxes and bags?  Then maybe it’s time to consult an expert.

Learn how to use what you have, throw out what you don’t wear anymore and to alter or fix clothing with potential to make you look great again!

Eliminate ill-fitting and outdated garments in your wardrobe, identify the clothing that still works for your desired appearance, and organize your clothes, shoes and accessories so that everything is orderly and accessible to you.

First, an appointment to visit your closet and discuss in-depth your specific concerns. Organize your wardrobe through a closet edit discussing what should stay and eliminating dated, worn or poorly fitting items. Trying on clothing that you are not sure of its fit, confirming the decision to keep only the styles that flatter your figure and eliminate what doesn’t work, explaining why.

We will custom design a space, organized by items worn for work and leisure and coordinate by color and style.

Make a shopping list of clothing and accessories that would compliment your current wardrobe. The list would be of items we see missing that would allow you to expand the wear ability of your current clothing or to easily create an outfit.

We will then advise you on how to pull together an outfit for each day with ease.

This step takes usually 2-4 hours, based on the size and shape of your closet or wardrobe.

Components of a Wardrobe Analysis and Closet Organization

Discover how to manage your wardrobe and streamline your dressing routine. We’ll take inventory of your current wardrobe, including accessories and decide what to keep, what to toss, and what can be saved with a simple hem or button. We’ll rate the wear ability and functionality of each item, based on your lifestyle demands and personal style. You’ll walk away with a reorganized closet of only your best items, and the tools needed to maximize your dressing options and express your individual style every time. You’ll receive comprehensive lists of existing suitable as well as missing garments and accessories, and helpful, shopping tips and resources.

PERSONAL SHOPPING

We go shopping and there is nothing to buy because the racks of styles appear too young or too old. So we buy nothing or another pair of black pants, which match the other five pair we already own, or if you are like me- another pair of shoes, which always fit. The end result is wearing a handful of comfortable, easy to put together outfits (usually the way we initially purchased them) again, and again; never changing, never getting out of our comfort zone. Why, because we get caught in s vicious cycle of being stuck and not knowing what to do.

Here is where we fill in the gaps; purchase those missing pieces, and incorporate new elements into your existing wardrobe. We’ll help you make choices that flatter your figure, enhance your best features and camouflage imperfections. Find quality clothing and accessories that fit your budget. Learn how to shop with a purpose and find exactly what you need, without feeling overwhelmed or discouraged.

Whether you are in need of a full wardrobe makeover, a new dress code for your company, or just looking to add some fresh pieces to your wardrobe this season, personal shopping with or without Tonia will get you noticed.

Determine the key articles of clothing that your wardrobe is missing in order to create the image you want. Tonia will then embark on a personal shopping trip to find the clothing and accessories to make you look great.
