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...

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...

To anyone who doesn't understand why you might pay someone to go through your wardrobe and shop for you, I understand. You spend enough money buying clothes, how could you pay for someone to pick things out for you doesn't that seem lazy and extravagant? The short answer is NO. For starters, what Ali does, I couldn't do and even if I could, it would take me all day to even come close. I show up and she already has things picked out and what I LOVE is she is the first one to be completely...

Ali - Working with you was such a gift. I was SO anxious about finding the right dress... boy, did you nail it for me. I cannot thank you enough. The thought of having to find a dress was overwhelming to me and you made it so incredibly easy. That you went ahead and had dresses ready for me to try on was awesome and I SO appreciate it. You really know what you are doing! I have told so many people about my experience with you.

Mary

I cannot say enough about how helpful Ali was in getting not just my closet, but my life, organized. As a working mother of twin toddlers, the task of organizing my closet loomed over me with such overwhelming dimensions it seemed I would never get out from under. Time is such a precious thing and knowing that Ali was coming to help me focus on the task at hand was HUGE! Cleaning out my closet helped me get a handle on some of the chaos in my bedroom and makes getting ready for work in the...

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...

Sarah

If you told me 5 years ago that I would have someone shop for me and organize my closet for me (at times when I am not even home), I probably would have laughed out loud. But, then I met Ali. Every morning, I used to stand in my closet for what seemed like a half hour and try on multiple things before deciding upon something passable. I always wore the same thing and believe me, it was never very exciting. Ali helped me look more stylish, but, without moving out of my comfort zone. She makes...

Joanne

After fifteen years living in a one bedroom apartment, it was time to purge and renew. I had no idea where to begin and that's where Ali stepped in! She systematically went through my wardrobe for four seasons that were crammed into two closets and helped advise me as to what to keep, what to donate and what to consign. She assessed what was lacking in my wardrobe and once she thoroughly organized my home, I scheduled an appointment to take her shopping with me. She had already pre-selected...

Martha

Ali is so talented! I was getting so tired of wearing my uniform of black pants/top/jacket to work so I asked her to help me brighten up my look for summer. She went through my whole summer wardrobe and shoes, quickly deciding if I should keep the item or give it away. Then we went shopping at Bloomingdales particularly to find work dresses. She has such an eye for choosing clothing that will flatter and look beautiful. I was able to perk up my whole closet both work and casual in an...

Debra

You have another true fan and friend. Thanks to you, I love getting dressed in the morning and putting together new outfits. I really appreciate how you were able to sort through my closet, gently tell me what needed to go, what could stay and which staples were missing from my closet. I love the new skinny jeans and boots you suggested and again feel that every morning is an exciting opportunity to put together a new fashionable outfit. And quite honestly, I receive many compliments on 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!
