Nancy

I reached out to Ali via Thumbtack and she responded instantly. I had already read about her while Googling similar services in my area. So happy that she responded and we were able to connect. She came to my house promptly as scheduled, chatted with me for a bit as to what I hope to accomplish, my wardrobe style, etc and then she went to town on my closet. Knew exactly what to get rid of, what to consign, what to repair and what to keep. She organized everything, gave me styling tips and left...

Rebecca

Cleaning out my closet is a job that I dread. I decided that it would never get done unless I got help. That's where Ali came in. What to keep? What to throw? With her very calm, non-judgmental manner, we went through clothing, shoes, and pocketbooks. Though some items were truly old, she just quietly commented that maybe this one or that one was "a little dated". She listened to my hesitations on some, and respected my reasons for keeping the odd piece or two. However, I also respected her...

Stacy

I loved working with Ali! She helped me organize my closet and take an inventory of what I had and what I needed. She helped me pick out some amazing new pieces that I already don't know how I lived without! She helped me move from young and casual into professional and stylish! I am so much more confident when I feel put together and I know I look good! I highly recommend her!

Susie

From the start, Ali made me feel at ease. She took a moment to get to know me before we hit my closet. She did not ask me to part with clothes that were still wearable, but did have a good sense of what was truly outdated or didn't look great on me. Ali showed me how to put outfits together and organized my closet so that I wouldn't overlook items that could go together well. It was like discovering a whole new wardrobe! She also suggested what to tailor and a few items to buy to round out my...

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.

Jamie

Going through my closet and shopping are typically stressful and overwhelming for me. Ali made the experience fun! She was quickly able to assess my look and my comfort zone. She then helped me find clothes that are fashionable and consistent with who I am. I know we found some pieces that I treasure and I know that getting dressed each day will be so much easier

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...

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....

Lisa

I have an enormous closet, stuffed with clothes, and yet somehow, I never seem to have anything to wear. I kept buying clothes and then wearing the same few outfits over and over again. Finally, I was never really sure what types of clothes looked best on me. Enter...Ali.... I was lucky to find Ali doing an online search. Within 3 hours together, I had tried on every single thing in my gigantic closet; Ali was decisive and knowledgeable about what worked and what didn't. She made me feel...

Jocelyn

I am a stay-at-home mom, needing functional but wanting classic-looking clothes, and Ali went through my closet piece by piece, helping me figure out what to keep and what to purge. She showed me how to put some outfits together in ways that I hadn't thought of, and showed me how, with the addition of a few key pieces, I could create a wardrobe that would really meet my needs. We looked up some stores online, and found some that carry tall clothes that I had never known about. We also picked...

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!
