- WEAR – AND BE - WHO YOU ARE!Ridgedale Library- Robert H. Rohlf Room , Minnetonka, MN
How to dress authentically and show up
in your brightest light!Presented by Joyce Rosenblad Hirsch, of “True You Consulting”
and new Women’s Connection member, Debra Fisher Goldstein
Your colors – your fabrics – your essence – you at your best!Join us for a fun-filled afternoon of tips and insights and an introduction on dressing authentically. Learn what it means to dress “in your element.”
See before and after photos of how color helps you shine (or not!), along with a little style show featuring Joyce’s system of AIR, WATER, FIRE, and EARTH (with ‘real people’ live models for each element).Being “In Your Element” means that everything you wear is in harmony and alignment with the true you –your clothes, jewelry, shoes, hairstyle and color – so that you show up authentically and in your full empowerment. From this place of grounding, you feel more confident and better connected to yourself – and to others. And getting dressed each day is SO much easier; everything in your closet works together; it’s the end of, as one Women Connection member noted: “A closet of mistakes.” And shopping takes a fraction of the time as you move right past the colors that are not yours.
Time and money saved!We won't be doing full “ typing“ of participants – determining everyone’s “element“ - that’s a more comprehensive and deeper process, but you will learn much so you can get started to pick out colors and styles.
We’ll have time for Q&A and up close touch and feel of clothes, fabrics and swatch fans for each element.
You will walk away with ideas you can use now.Join the fun! Free yourself from clothes that drain the real you and hide the wonderful woman you are!
You can start with a few small changes and grow into it over time – or jump in all at once!As one long term client of Joyce’s says:
“This was one of the most fun, eye-opening, freeing transformations I’ve ever invested in for myself. It brings me joy every day to put on MY colors and feel like ME!”Want to learn more about Women's Connection?
