Testimonials

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...

Susan

Ali is great! I had a two hour closet consultation, and at the end of the session I loved my wardrobe again. She helped me weed out items that were not flattering and cluttering my closet, identify items that had potential but required alterations, and rediscover items I've been reluctant to wear because I wasn't sure of their fit or how to wear them. I really trusted her judgment and instead of anguishing over the pieces for donation (which I would have done on my own), I deferred to her and...

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...

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.

Michelle

I have luckily been about the same size for about the last 20 years, so you can imagine the amount of clothes I have amassed. I always felt bad buying a new black skirt when I had 10 in my closet, but never knew how to figure out what was still relevant... It was too confusing and just too much stuff for me to be objective. That's when I called Ali. She came in and within a couple of days, had my closets organized, made me aware of where I might need to make purchases, and where to stop making...

Elaine

I accomplished more in enhancing my wardrobe in 2 hours with Ali, than I would have managed in 2 weeks on my own. That alone would have made her worth every penny. Better still is that with her advice and support, I have more confidence that not only will I not regret any of my purchases now that they're home, but I'm genuinely looking forward to showing off my improved 'look' this summer! I never felt rushed but somehow we managed to cover a lot of ground in our time together. She just made...

Dora

I was nervous about hiring another stylist; I have had great ones and some bad ones. Ali is the absolute BEST. She came to my home and we went through my wardrobe: she helped me decide to keep more items than any of the others. We set up another date to go shopping. Ali had my style, budget and what I needed down pat like I had worked with her for years. I couldn't be happier. This is the most efficient and most successful experience I have ever had.

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...

Roberta

One of the many things that I appreciate about working with Ali is that she pays attention to my likes, dislikes, and lifestyle. Ali's approach is not cookie-cutter; it is tailored to suit me. As a result of Ali's coaching, I have eliminated questionable items in my wardrobe and selectively added garments that make me feel and look great and that suit my personality and life.

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!
