Margaret

I met with Ali in my home to organize & shop in my own closet. I had work clothes, play clothes & dressy clothes all mixed in together. I had even forgotten about some of the clothes I own. It was a big help to have objective fashion advice on what to keep & what to get rid of. It made me feel great when Ali complimented some of my choices in clothes. I know I was getting an honest opinion when I asked- does this make me look fat??? or is it a keeper??? Isn't that the most...

Lisa R.

I am not someone who loves to shop. That is not to say I don’t enjoy looking good in what I wear. Thank goodness for Ali! We meet at least twice a year to go through my closet, assess what is in style, not in style and what else to purchase. I appreciate her practical ideas on when making a few alterations can turn an item from something you never feel good wearing into something you wear nonstop. I value her insight on when to spend money on a nice item and when not to. I feel more...

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.

Laurie

Ali is an expert and a delight to work with. I'd never met with personal fashion stylist before, and really didn't know what to expect. I wanted help sorting through my clothes, and a bit of inspiration to fine tune my style. (I'm a mid-fifties former New Yorker but native Bostonian, and it's been something of a challenge to hone my choices since returning home) Ali was so positive and easy - she made it fun, and then voila! A beautifully organized closet, a pile of items heading to the thrift...

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...

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...

Karen

I had a great experience working with Ali. It was easy to schedule the appointment. Ali came to my apartment one weekend afternoon to do a wardrobe review. I found it quite helpful as I'm in the process of losing weight and I needed advice on what still worked and what needed to go. Ali worked fast! We went through my whole closet in 2 hrs. We purged a lot and kept a lot. Ali gave good advice, was pleasant and fun to interact with and did a great job helping me determine what's next. She was...

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...

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...

Bonnie L

I received a Right Up Your Ali gift certificate for my 71st birthday from my daughters. They were tired of avoiding my pleas for fashion help. I was so nervous at the thought a stranger seeing my closet and all the clothing I have accumulated over the years. Ali arrived at my house and I was stressed. She quickly put me at ease by talking and asking me questions. She went through my closet of clothing and shoes. It seemed so easy to decide what I needed to keep and what would be donated. I...

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!
