Testimonials

Jerry

I am most certainly a stylishly-challenged nerd, far more comfortable in tattered jeans and a big floppy sweatshirt than khakis and a sports coat. Picking an appropriate outfit for different occasions has always mystified me. I am more likely to win the lottery than identify a good combination of colors and patterns. I think you get the picture. Both my interest and aptitude in fashion is low. Imagine my "thrill" when my wife presented me with a birthday gift of what she described as a few...

Martha

I had such fun with Ali this weekend going through my whole winter wardrobe evaluating whether an outfit was stunning or one that was past it's prime. She had great suggestions for a few outside purchase recommendations that will expand my options. Ali is spot on with her quick analysis of whether an outfit looks great (i.e. "you should be living in this"!) that comes from a wealth of fashion expertise. What a feeling to have all outfits organized - it's now so easy to pop on a new fabulous...

Lesley

With two little ones at home I haven't had time to think about my closet in years. Thank goodness I discovered Ali. Not only did she organize my closet to make it look like those you see in magazines, but she also took me shopping to help fill it up with necessities. The thing that I love the most about Ali is that she didn't pressure me or push me to buy anything I didn't want to. It was extremely low pressure and lots of fun.

"Ali has been a transformative influence on my wardrobe. As a guy who never knows what looks good with what, Ali has turned getting dressed for any situation from a hassle to now a confident and easy process for me. First, Ali spent several hours with me going through my closet. I literally tried on every piece of clothing I own for her. The result was a pile of clothes to donate, but also a remaining set of clothes that I knew looked good on me. Second, Ali made a list of gaps in my wardrobe,...

Karen

I had a great experience working with Ali. It was easy to schedule the appointment. Ali came to my apartment one weekend afternoon to do a wardrobe review. I found it quite helpful as I'm in the process of losing weight and I needed advice on what still worked and what needed to go. Ali worked fast! We went through my whole closet in 2 hrs. We purged a lot and kept a lot. Ali gave good advice, was pleasant and fun to interact with and did a great job helping me determine what's next. She was...

Tricia

Ali - I really liked that you didn't want to ditch everything that I own and worked with what I had. You didn't try to impose " your" style on me. You were very easy to talk with about style and you had great suggestions on what things to add and where I could shop for those things. I also appreciate that you recognized that we don't all have the same "budget" for clothing and I didn't feel that you were "high end" only. You suggested other reasonable options like Banana Republic and J.Crew....

Susan

Ali, Thank you for taking me shopping at Filene's Basement. With your help, I got great pieces that update my wardrobe and that I will wear for years. Best of all, you did it without breaking the bank!

Roberta

One of the many things that I appreciate about working with Ali is that she pays attention to my likes, dislikes, and lifestyle. Ali's approach is not cookie-cutter; it is tailored to suit me. As a result of Ali's coaching, I have eliminated questionable items in my wardrobe and selectively added garments that make me feel and look great and that suit my personality and life.

Wendy

For 20 plus years, I had felt drab and uninspired about my clothes and my appearance. I finally made the decision to hire a stylist, someone who could help me to achieve a better look and to feel more confident. I found Ali and she is wonderful. She is a perfect advocate for someone like myself. I wore the same old clothes, and I had lost my motivation to explore my own closets and see which of my clothes I could preserve or rid myself of. Ali is perceptive and she will get a feeling of who...

Jocelyn

I am a stay-at-home mom, needing functional but wanting classic-looking clothes, and Ali went through my closet piece by piece, helping me figure out what to keep and what to purge. She showed me how to put some outfits together in ways that I hadn't thought of, and showed me how, with the addition of a few key pieces, I could create a wardrobe that would really meet my needs. We looked up some stores online, and found some that carry tall clothes that I had never known about. We also picked...

What Do I Do?

I Upgrade Your Closet Inventory!

How often do you stand in front of your closet asking that question? Oh yes, that’s your closet. The one that’s full of clothes. The clock is ticking. And you have nothing to wear. So you pull something, anything, out, put it on, and perhaps you spend the rest of the day feeling just a little self conscious. Are these pants flattering? Do these things work together? Are they appropriate? Do they fit well? Are they too tight? Are they a little uncomfortable? Why, when you have a closet full of clothes, is it so difficult? And no matter how often you shop, no matter how much money you spend, why are you standing in front of your closet again wondering what to do?

I work closely with top retailers to find what is right for you and to get the right fit. Here is a sample of the services I offer. If there is something I didn’t cover, just ask!
