Boston’s Personal Shopper

Fashion Stylist and Founder, Right Up Your Ali
Welcome to Right Up Your Ali! I can’t wait to begin organizing YOUR closet and planning your perfect wardrobe! It is important to look at your existing wardrobe to determine which pieces are useful and effective and which pieces are under-utilized. I’ll help you decide what to keep, what pieces should go to consignment, what pieces should be donated etc. and then, assess what gaps need to be filled.

Susan

Ali is great! I had a two hour closet consultation, and at the end of the session I loved my wardrobe again. She helped me weed out items that were not flattering and cluttering my closet, identify items that had potential but required alterations, and rediscover items I've been reluctant to wear because I wasn't sure of their fit or how to wear them. I really trusted her judgment and instead of anguishing over the pieces for donation (which I would have done on my own), I deferred to her and...

Debbie

I heard about Ali from a friend who lives in Boston. I live in St. Louis, so I asked Ali whether she would offer me consulting services over the internet and phone. I had recently started a new job and needed to update my professional wardrobe. Ali was enthusiastic, flexible, efficient, and sensitive to my individual needs. I gave her some basic information about my lifestyle, wardrobe gaps, and budget and sent her a couple photos of myself. She talked with me about ideas over the phone and...

"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,...

Samantha A.

Ali helped me find something special for an important event I was attending. After a brief conversation on the phone, she met me at the store having pre-selected several items for me to try. Working with her was incredibly efficient and enjoyable. She worked with salespeople directly to find different sizes, make alterations and ship certain items to me directly. After we were all done, I had three terrific options to choose from-top to bottom, shoes to jewelry included-which I never would had...

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.

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!

I could not have been happier with Ali! I received a gift certificate for Ali's services, and at first look was really not excited at all about it. As a "guy's guy", I own a lot of sweatshirts and Boston sports team gear. My work clothes I looked at as just that - work clothes. Ali first came to my house and started by going through everything in my closet, from sweaters and blazers, to dress shirts and golf shirts, to pants and suits and right down to shoes. It would have been worth it just...

David

It was the day before the Super Bowl. Who would have thought I would be spending time in my closet with a strange woman! My wife had bought me a consultation with Ali because I had been complaining. Every time I went to my closet for something to wear for a casual night out, I got depressed. I could wear my week day work stuff but what a drag. Usually I dress for the weekend with the idea that I might have to go down to the basement and lug some boxes around. But even my "good" weekend clothes...

Cathy (& Jackie!)

What is the perfect gift for a 12 year old girl now that she is no longer into American Girl Dolls? These days, if your daughter is anything like mine, she is more concerned about feeling confident around her peers and looking her best. After two hours of shopping with Ali, my daughter left the mall feeling so good about herself. In the past, I would try and take her shopping for days only to end up with her crying in the changing room saying nothing looks good on me. How many times have you...

Bonnie L

I received a Right Up Your Ali gift certificate for my 71st birthday from my daughters. They were tired of avoiding my pleas for fashion help. I was so nervous at the thought a stranger seeing my closet and all the clothing I have accumulated over the years. Ali arrived at my house and I was stressed. She quickly put me at ease by talking and asking me questions. She went through my closet of clothing and shoes. It seemed so easy to decide what I needed to keep and what would be donated. I...

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!
