EDIT: Donna says this is all blatant lies, but ask me & I will happily provide proof of everything: How long I’ve been a customer, donated to help someone when asked, Donna asking me to reach out to my friend, my friend texting me because she felt bad about accidentally picking up someone else’s order & could not return it immediately, Donna sending me a PM then blocking me so I could not respond, her deleting our conversation on Venmo. She can’t block me here, so I will absolutely tell the truth here to hopefully save someone from her juvenile behavior. The only liar here is Donna. Suddenly she has 10 new 5 star reviews in the past 3 days on here. Why? Because she puts people down publicly when she gets mad at them. I have proof of this, too. Of course they can't defend themselves because she blocks them, then she makes her customers believe it was all that person's fault. She asks you to write a review to help her recover from the bad review. I've seen it many times over the years. I fell for it too. We live and learn. Since my review, I’ve found out that she has done this to several others as well. Someone actually reached out to me to applaud me for getting the word out. Donna talks a big game about kindness, love, etc, but I can assure you that she is not the great person she claims to be. She showed her true colors. Sadly, some of you reading this will find out the hard way like I did. Karma is beautiful.
ORIGINAL: I have been a loyal customer of Caledonia Chic for 6 years but I will no longer support nor recommend her to anyone. I was a good customer to Donna. I subscribed to her monthly box for years, paid on time, recommended her & talked highly about her and her products. I donated to her friends when she asked her customers for donations. The only complaint she has about me is that I was often late picking up my items but they were always paid for on time. The way that she treated me recently because she was angry at a friend of mine, was completely uncalled for. She was rude & disrespectful, blocking me for no reason because she was upset about a mistake a friend of mine made that I had nothing to do with. When my friend picked up her order last Friday, her bag was leaning up against another bag with no name on it. She thought it was part of her order & took it. My friend even text me after she realized her mistake because she felt bad about it. It was an honest mistake. The problem was that she did not have time to return the bag immediately because of her busy weekend. She told Donna she would return it in a few days, which she did. Donna accused my friend of being a liar & a thief when it was an honest mistake. Donna then PM'd me asking me to reach out to my friend (which I did even though it was unprofessional of her to ask this of me) because she couldn't get ahold of her. The next day Donna sent me a nasty message (as if this was my fault). I guess in her eyes I was guilty by association. I was so confused by her anger toward me that I tried to reach out to her but she had me blocked on everything except Venmo. So I reached out to her there but she was still rude to me & then deleted our messages (clearly she didn't want other people to see the way she treated me since everyone can read those comments). This situation should have stayed between her & her customer & should not have involved me in any way (whether it was a friend of mine or not). I have never been treated so poorly by a small business owner who I have generously supported for years & considered a friend. I can only assume that I wasn't an important customer to her anymore since I was no longer subscribed to her monthly boxes and giving her money on a regular basis. The irony of it is that I purchased from her just recently because I felt bad that I had not ordered anything from her in a while & I wanted to support her. I would not recommend her anymore after this display of pure unprofessionalism. Clearly if someone you know makes her mad, you are just as guilty. Beware of this if you become one of her so called...
Read moreShe has lost me as a customer!!!! I placed an order with her, paid her immediately, picked it up the next day. My package was leaning on a small goodie bag. So there were two items together on her porch with my name on it. I grabbed it all. I live in IN. So it was a drive to go and pick up from her. I’m normally always have everything delivered. But I was hosting a party at my house and wanted these items I bought to hand out as gifts. She texted me asking if I grabbed everything, I said yes. She said it wasn’t all mine. I was frustrated and confused because it was ALL TOGETHER!!!!! She asked me to please return it. I said I will but I can’t today or tomorrow as I’m hosting a party at my house. I didn’t want or need the goodie bag. I wasn’t planning on keeping it. I use real skincare products that are truly are beneficial to my skin and youth. Not some home made concoction.
So two days later I returned the goodie bag just as I had received it.
She claims, I ruined it, that I am a liar and a thief. And I was NOT OK WITH THAT. It was an honest mistake that I admitted from the beginning and I also returned it.
She went crazy, posting lies about me and to top it off un friended, blocked and went off on my best friend who is a huge supporter of hers. Why on earth she felt the need to do this to my best friend who was a huge supporter of her and did Absolutely nothing!!!!!!!!!
Donna truly flipped a switch and went CRAZY!!!!!! Stating lies!!!!! It’s funny how after she got a negative honest review she reached out to all her friends and family and asked them to leave a five star review 😂 it’s also great seeing all the people stepping forward and saying Donna went crazy on them too!
So be careful people and be ready, she may turn on you and...
Read moreLet me tell you....the lady who runs this business is one of the most talented and thoughtful people I know. The dedication to her customers is unparalleled, and her ability to touch people's lives by tailoring her products and services to their tastes, schedules, and budgets has cemented her as a force to be reckoned with in the industry - both locally and abroad. I am proud of all that she has accomplished in the short time she's been in business, and I look forward to finding out what each new day brings as her creativity continues to blossom. I am more proud however, to call her my wife and best friend. Trust me when I tell you that all of the care and thought that goes into the products she offers to customers - both new and repeat - pales in comparison to the love and care that she exhibits daily in our home. I love you Donna and couldn't be more proud of what you've...
