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...

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...

Simply put: Ali is a-MAZING! Who knew cleaning your closet could be so much fun?? I wasn't sure what to expect when I scheduled my closet re-org with Ali. Her impressive resume working with luxury brands like Chanel and Valentino left me thinking that my closet contents might not be up to her standards. Ali immediately put me at ease with her down-to-earth, easy-to-talk-to and authentic approach. Ali plowed through my overwhelming (for me-not for her) closet, easily sorted through items to...

Mary

I found Ali through Rue La La, and am very glad I did! I had been feeling frustrated at what I felt was a lack of clothing that suited my age, lifestyle and taste. Ali helped me find timeless items that work with what I already have. They are in regular rotation and always elicit complements when I wear them. She was happy to shop within my budget, and made me feel comfortable trying things I would not have ordinarily tried. I am building a wardrobe that is unique, flattering and fun. Our...

Ali came in and did a great job of reviewing my wardrobe, letting me know what worked and what didn't work. What was really great is she absolutely took into account why certain pieces were there and what purpose they serve. Have already recommended her to my friends as a must to help ensure you are stylish. Well worth checking out.

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...

Jessica

I was nervous about having someone in my closet, but knew something drastic needed to be done. I couldn't keep wearing my boyfriend's clothing and thinking I looked stylish. Ali quickly put me at ease. A couple of quick questions and into the closet we went. In no time flat she worked through my whole closet with me - discarding, organizing and revitalizing. Items I never wore she gave me the confidence to wear and worked them into outfits. She also didn't make me throw everything out, I still...

Kristin

I am one of those people who stand in my closet every day bemoaning how I have nothing to wear, even though I have a closet full of some pretty nice things. I fell into the trap of wearing the same outfits in the same way all of the time and got bored with my wardrobe and my look. Ali came over and in less than 2 hours helped me re-purpose many items that I hadn't worn in ages. She gave me great ideas of how to wear different pieces together for a totally new look. She also helped re-arrange...

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...

Lisa

I just wanted to thank you for your assistance. Your advice is priceless! I really value the editing of my existing wardrobe, advice on filling the gaps in my wardrobe (ie boots) and your practical advice on what brands and styles to consider. In addition, I feel the investment pieces you have recommended were well worth the it and I feel great every time I use them. Thanks again. I look forward to working with you again.

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!
