Testimonials

Anu

We invited Ali as a birthday surprise for my wife. Ali did a great job getting my wife started right away, quickly going through her closets and then taking her on an "out-of-the-box" shopping experience at Natick Mall which was perfectly appropriate for her style, and not focused on brand names. She bought many things in two hours (whereas usually in three hours she purchases one thing) she would not have, and is looking at clothes in a new way ! We'll be calling her back to keep her wardrobe...

Katie

Thanks so much for your help last night! I can't tell you what a difference it made to have an objective person go through each item of my wardrobe with me and determine what is worth keeping and what I should let go. I feel such a sense of calm now that my closet, dresser and armoire are so organized. And, thanks to your fresh perspective, I have a rekindled appreciation for pieces I haven't worn in ages. It's almost like I went shopping and didn't even have to take out my credit card! I'm...

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...

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.

Sarah

Ali is amazing! She is hip and stylish without looking as if she is trying too hard. She can work with what you have and add a few key pieces to truly transform your wardrobe. 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!

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...

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...

Ellen

"Right Up Your Ali" is not just a cute play on words for Ali's business: it defines the way she approaches her clients! From the first time we met, Ali "got" me she understood what kind of style I (hope to) have. By asking just a few questions including where I generally shop already, what kind of lifestyle (job, weekends, events) I have, what styles I like -- she has helped me figure out how bring the style I want to life. Over the past couple of years, we have found everything from a dress...

Jon

"Ali has been a transformative influence on my wardrobe. As a guy who never knows what looks good with what, Ali has turned getting dressed for any situation from a hassle to now a confident and easy process for me. First, Ali spent several hours with me going through my closet. I literally tried on every piece of clothing I own for her. The result was a pile of clothes to donate, but also a remaining set of clothes that I knew looked good on me. Second, Ali made a list of gaps in my wardrobe,...

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...

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!
