Testimonials

Amy

Ali was amazing to work with! In less than 2 hours she helped me go through everything in my closet -- recommending what should stay, helping me get rid of things I had been holding on to for way too long, and giving me great ideas about new pieces I should add and how I could combine things I already own in new ways. She made me feel totally at ease and really took the time to listen and understand what would be right for me. She has a fantastic eye and helped me answer questions that I had...

Sherrill

I just completed a two hour closet re-organization with Ali. She was great! She went right to work after a few questions on my style preferences and lifestyle. She assessed each piece in my closet, advised me on things that were "dated", we got rid of anything that didn't fit perfectly, and she made some great suggestions about staples I needed to complete some outfits. I have a wide range of clothes, she was non-judgmental about brand, price, etc- she just wanted me to keep the things that...

Sarita

It's been over two months since Ali and I spent 2 hours playing in my closet. I say "playing" because that's what it felt like -- I had so much fun! I am grateful to her on a daily basis. I walk into my closet and feel like I'm in a boutique -- it's so well organized! And I can pull an outfit together in no time! What is even more remarkable is that this was accomplished without my having to buy a single item. I was quite certain that my wardrobe was incredibly outdated as I tend to be a bit...

Emily

I recently had the pleasure of spending two afternoons with Ali - one in front of my closet and the other in the Pru - and was so happy with the results. After going from the professional world to the playground with the arrival of two kids and riding a roller coaster of sizes during that transition, I felt like I had tons of clothes but never anything to wear. Ali helped me figure out how to focus my look and then took me on a shopping trip to address the gaps she'd identified in my closet....

Katie

Thanks so much for your help last night! I can't tell you what a difference it made to have an objective person go through each item of my wardrobe with me and determine what is worth keeping and what I should let go. I feel such a sense of calm now that my closet, dresser and armoire are so organized. And, thanks to your fresh perspective, I have a rekindled appreciation for pieces I haven't worn in ages. It's almost like I went shopping and didn't even have to take out my credit card! I'm...

Sue

I cannot believe how much we accomplished in just 2 hours! The time flew by. I now know what is in my closet and it is so much easier for me to put an outfit together in the AM for work. Thank you so much for helping me purge what I will never wear again, keep what is up to date and match outfits with the clothes I already have. It was truly a pleasure to work with you!

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...

Michelle

I have luckily been about the same size for about the last 20 years, so you can imagine the amount of clothes I have amassed. I always felt bad buying a new black skirt when I had 10 in my closet, but never knew how to figure out what was still relevant... It was too confusing and just too much stuff for me to be objective. That's when I called Ali. She came in and within a couple of days, had my closets organized, made me aware of where I might need to make purchases, and where to stop making...

T.C.

I'd be the first to admit that I'm a little intimidated by fashion. I'm never entirely sure what's dated, what's current, and what goes with what. Add to that the fact that I'm no good at culling my closet, and you get an enormous closet (with some items more than 15 years old) and "nothing to wear." But after another round of I-just-bought-all-this-stuff-but-I-still-can't-get-dressed-in-the-morning, I finally realized that getting a professional to help me would probably save me both time and...

Susie

From the start, Ali made me feel at ease. She took a moment to get to know me before we hit my closet. She did not ask me to part with clothes that were still wearable, but did have a good sense of what was truly outdated or didn't look great on me. Ali showed me how to put outfits together and organized my closet so that I wouldn't overlook items that could go together well. It was like discovering a whole new wardrobe! She also suggested what to tailor and a few items to buy to round out my...

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!
