Just getting home from your wonderful seminar and had to write you!My friends and I really enjoyed the day!  the vendors, the food, the whole “enchilada” !and as always, I love your “delivery”  of the ” art of dressing” !I never tire of your humorous way of portraying what every women thinks, says and does when it come to her own self image and how to “dress”. I look forward to your next session… and will try to round up some more of my BFFs. Marianne

Wonderful show on Sunday!! You did a great job! Mom loved the fact I am doing this for her. I told her it was her Mothers Day present to help her dress (she was clueless to why she was there Sunday, I wanted everything to be a surprise). She started to cry! I knew I picked a great present! Michele

Thank you for dressing me. It is one thing to attend the event. However, as a model, i truly understand what you were talking about because I had experienced it… As there are many changes in my life and my body after 3 kids, I will assure you those clothes I was wearing are in my past, and now when I finally go to the store….. I will know what to buy that will fit my body. It is all about felling sexy, looking good from head-to-toe and inside-out. Melissa

TESTIMONIALS from our VENDORS

Hi Tonia. Just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed being part of your show..I have been doing shows for 21 years and yours was one of the best from beginning to end.  I compliment your professionalism. Wish we had  time to get to know each other, maybe at another show. Please include me in your future shows and i would love to put rain gear in the fashion show if possible. Thank you again. Fondly, Linda/Umbrellas. FULL CIRCLE

Busy sending out samples and business opportunity information today – it’s great to meet a new group of people who are interested in looking and feeling better, most of whom don’t know about Arbonne

I just wanted to take a second to commend you on your successful event yesterday.  It was such an amazing group of women; you could just feel the energy in the room.  I thank you so much for taking a chance on me, a new business owner, in allowing me to be a vendor at an event of this caliber.  You were stunning in that dress and the aura about you is one of such confidence and magnetism.  Judi Burns ,Energize U

The Event for me was a huge success! I am very glad to be part of this and I am looking forward to receive more information about upcoming events, I will do all of them if you invite me.

At the end of the event I asked people about the convention and all of them were very happy. I do not know if all vendors were happy as I was but for me the show was fun, beautiful environment, I felt very comfortable, I sold a lot and I received a lot of compliments about my work, they find my jewelry very different and original, It has been a successful event! Carli Bruno

We want to thank you and your staff for a fabulous ‘Spring Into Style’ affair. You
were informative, enlightening and funny as usual. We have gotten a lot of feedback

You go girl! Beverly White & Gail Williams, Measured to Fit

TESTIMONIALS from the JAN  16th 2011, New Year , New You event.

Tonia, Your event on Jan 16th was such a wonderful event! You did a fabulous job organizing it and making it fun & exciting for everyone. All the women in the parking garage elevator were talking about how they had such a nice day! Respectfully, Laura & Ellen

Tonia, I didn’t want the day to go by without saying, “Thank You” it was great! It was very well organized, thought out and attended. Jennifer

Congratulations! What an amazing event, thank you so much for letting me go as your guest. We all had an amazing time and can’t wait for the next one. Lilly

Fantastic day today! Thank you so much. Looking forward to the next one in May! Best, Jeanne

You did an outstanding job on the event today, and just what i needed time away from the husband and kids. My girlfriend and I had so much fun and really enjoyed ourselves. Melissa

You did an awesome job today!  Just wanted to mention how great you and the team were today! Valerie

Thanks again for such a great event – we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and learned quite a bit too! I wore the scarf out and had several comments from the other ladies; fun meeting so many people who are looking for more out of their lives~ Amy

Congratulations on a fantastic presentation yesterday!  It was really funny and interesting (or should I say, YOU were really funny) and I think the crowd was knocked out. Really great.

I appreciate so much the time you spent last weekend helping me select a dress for my son’s wedding.  Now that I am home, I have showed it to some of the family and they just love it too.  You have a great eye and sense of style.  And you made the trip “outside my comfort zone” a fun learning experience. A hundred thousand thank yous! – Barb

Thank you so much for presenting your fashion seminar for our Victorious Women of God Conference
Your program on Friday night was a tremendous blessing to all the women who attended. Not only have they become more confident in WHO they are IN Christ Jesus, they now truly look like AMBASSADORS FOR THE KINGDOM OF GOD! We thank God for the gift He has placed within you. Continue to use your gift for His Glory. You are blessing many women!

I wanted to let you know how great I have been doing thanks to attending your seminar. My wardrobe had deteriorated and I lost all confidence in my shopping ability when finally deciding I had no personal style. I carried myself the way I walked, head down, not wanting to risk catching a glimpse of myself in the mirror. I’d spend hours combing clothes racks in stores & not seeing anything I could wear. I came to your seminar with low expectations fearing I was beyond any help. Thank goodness I came. Voila! Style! What fun; and I wasn’t spending lots of money. No one ever remarked that I looked nice anymore. Men didn’t waste time looking at me. My husband hadn’t called me beautiful in years. Now I dress and carry myself like I look great, and I’m getting noticed. I was used to just quietly blend into the background .Not anymore. The first time I showed up with my new look, four people told me I looked “beautiful”. Last week a woman said how I look like I’ve had “a Today Show make over”. “Wow, girl, you’ve got style!” You are stunning!” I am so very grateful to have found you. My self-image is so much healthier now and I don’t feel like a withered has-been. I feel like I have a new life thanks to you.

Thank you for shopping with me on Saturday-it was such a great experience! It was like a dream come true, to go shopping with someone who could tell me what looks good and what doesn’t, and why. It was like the show “What Not to Wear”-only in real life. I learned so much from you-especially how to add color to a wardrobe-and take an outfit to the next level. I feel so fortunate that someone with your knowledge and expertise is right here and available in Dutchess County! I would highly recommend your personal shopping service to anyone that wants to rejuvenate their closet with style and color-and learn so many fashion tips along the way. Thank you for an invaluable experience-I wish I would have done this 20 years ago!

Thank you so much for presenting your excellent workshop “Head to Toe Dressing: Looking Your Best for Less” to the Women’s Enterprise Development Center last night. The workshop was very well received and you provided all in attendance with great guidance and humor about how to maximize our wardrobes to be comfortable and to be in style!
We greatly appreciate your willingness to present this program to help us promote the growth of strong women’s business owners in our community and we look forward to working with you again soon.

What I particularly liked was how you integrated the concept of how the effect of our internal thoughts impact our external appearance. It’s not just what you dress yourself in, but what your internal dialogue is. They two are intertwined and you cannot look good on the outside unless you possess confidence on the inside.I really identified with your message.Thanks again for all that you shared.

I want to say that your class was not what I expected- it was so much more. You show an individual how she can look good and best of all feel good about herself NO MATTER WHAT HER SIZE, SHAPE or AGE. I thank you for that. I know I can learn a lot more and can’t wait to come to your next seminar on May 17th. I wore the turquoise top to school and received a lot of compliments on the color. You also inspired me to delve into my closet and clean, clean, clean so I will have room to update and supplement my closet with items that will look good on me.

You have a charisma about you, which makes me feel comfortable and also motivates me to want to absorb all of your facts. Thank you for everything and I will see you again in the middle of May.

Your “Art of Dressing” class was wonderful. It’s amazing how much there is to know about dressing to flatter your body type. I didn’t realize how little I really knew until I attended your class. I’m looking forward to putting into use all the great tools you gave us. I work in a professional setting and my appearance is important. I feel more equipped to make the best impression possible. You have a wonderful way of making women feel comfortable with their appearance and accepting of their “imperfections.” I highly recommend your class to anyone who has a desire to improve the way they look and feel about themselves. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and doing it in such an interesting way.

I recently came to Tonia’s workshop to learn about making the best possible shopping purchases. I now have an empty closet ready for new clothes. I lost 55 pounds and am looking forward to building my wardrobe. This workshop teaches you the fundamentals of balance and proportion, body type, paying attention to details – hem lines, looking for classic and timeless collections, and the right accessories. Tonia is truly a professional. Ladies, we don’t have to watch TCL “What Not to Wear”, we have an expert right here in our own back yard. Tonia will teach you the true art of dressing! Five Stars ***** Highly Recommended! Thank you.
