Jennifer

I have worked in high end retail for 10 years. However, after becoming a mother two years ago I seem to have developed a habit of only shopping for my two boys and have forgotten about myself. As a result my closet had some beautiful items in it but a lot of the clothes, shoes and bags didn't translate into my current lifestyle. With two young children running around I never seemed to have the clear mind or energy to tackle my closet on my own, let alone know how I wanted to portray myself in...

Lisa R.

I am not someone who loves to shop. That is not to say I don’t enjoy looking good in what I wear. Thank goodness for Ali! We meet at least twice a year to go through my closet, assess what is in style, not in style and what else to purchase. I appreciate her practical ideas on when making a few alterations can turn an item from something you never feel good wearing into something you wear nonstop. I value her insight on when to spend money on a nice item and when not to. I feel more...

Anne

I recently had Ali organize my closet. I opened the door and let her work her magic. She weeded out all the clothes, shoes and handbags that were out dated and then got to organizing. I was so amazed at the transformation my closet went under. I can now actually see all of my clothes and I have more confidence in mixing and matching the pieces I have creating new outfits. I am at work by 7 am every morning and in the event that my power went out I know I could walk into my closet and pick an...

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...

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....

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...

Sarah

Whether you are looking to dress for success or to enliven your casual wear, Ali can help you look great for any occasion. I cannot say enough about her!

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!

Laurie

Ali is an expert and a delight to work with. I'd never met with personal fashion stylist before, and really didn't know what to expect. I wanted help sorting through my clothes, and a bit of inspiration to fine tune my style. (I'm a mid-fifties former New Yorker but native Bostonian, and it's been something of a challenge to hone my choices since returning home) Ali was so positive and easy - she made it fun, and then voila! A beautifully organized closet, a pile of items heading to the thrift...

Andria

Ali is amazing to work with. The first time I worked with her, I had a lot of rules around what I would and wouldn't wear. She listened to it all, respected it and was able to follow my guidelines while pushing me beyond my comfort zone. I loved it! I received so many compliments on the pieces I wore and more importantly, I felt great in what I was wearing! She is someone you need to work with! We loved working with her so much, that we hired her for our wedding outfits as well! She knows what...

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!
