Testimonials

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...

Joanne

I had the pleasure of working with Ali when I was at my thinnest and now at my heaviest. Never easy for me in either case. To be able to walk into any store with Ali, where within minutes she has inventoried, edited and selected clothing for me to try on, is beyond convenience. It literally takes the angst out of trying on pieces over and over and slowly losing my confidence and desire to shop. The other strength she possesses, is the clothing she chooses, nine out of ten times looks great! To...

Alice

Ali met me at the Natick Mall to help me shop for a "capsule wardrobe" for Spring. Honestly I dreaded the appointment because shopping generally just makes me unhappy with myself, my weight, my age etc. I expected this to just be an exercise in frustration. But it really does make a difference hiring an expert who sees the world a certain way. Ali walked into a store, quickly grabbed a few things, put me in a dressing room and waited patiently by my door. I'd say 95% of what she picked at...

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 I was quite certain that my wardrobe was incredibly outdated as I tend to be a bit...

Sue

My shopping trip with Ali was a great success. I came away with multiple fun and stylish things to wear that all fit well and were not outrageously expensive. She selected things that I would have passed by on the racks, only to find that they were wonderful once they were tried on. She was focused and very knowledgeable about what various stores had to offer so our time was efficiently used. I highly recommend Ali's service to anyone who needs help getting over the clothes shopping blues.

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

Ali is extremely professional and knowledgeable at finding the best outfits to fit your every day needs. I was nervous about having a stranger and an expert go into my closet since I lack a sense of fashion, but she politely told me what clothes to keep and what not too keep. She also informed me on how I could mix and match my clothes for casual and fancy occasions. The second day that we met she took me shopping. I have never enjoyed shopping for clothes and was amazed at what clothes she...

Wendy

For 20 plus years, I had felt drab and uninspired about my clothes and my appearance. I finally made the decision to hire a stylist, someone who could help me to achieve a better look and to feel more confident. I found Ali and she is wonderful. She is a perfect advocate for someone like myself. I wore the same old clothes, and I had lost my motivation to explore my own closets and see which of my clothes I could preserve or rid myself of. Ali is perceptive and she will get a feeling of who...

Ellen

The marketing coordinator at PEOPLE StyleWatch in NYC put us in touch with Ali! I was the lucky recipient of a one-on-one styling session/shopping trip and they selected Ali to be my consultant. We had a great afternoon! Ali started the day off with a makeup consultation at Neiman Marcus where I sipped a mimosa and learned about new fall colors for my eyes. My fifteen year old daughter came a long and had her makeup done too. It was the perfect way to relax and talk to Ali about what styles...

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.

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!
