Michaela Crimmins, Senior Program Manager, URI Alumni Association
"The URI Alumni Association was so fortunate to have Jill Marinelli as a featured guest speaker for the Women's Council Spring Symposium. Jill shared the importance of personal style to the students in the audience who are nearing graduation and about to enter the real world. She gave practical tips such as how to wear a uniform, where to shop, and how to feel confident with your every day style. She is engaging, professional, and a true class act. I would recommend her as a speaker to any company or organization!"

“What an amazing experience! I was amazed how Jill helped me make my current clothes work for me. She helped my sister (who recently lost almost 100 lbs and her butt) and I understand how to make the most of our body type and individual features. She gave me a short list of pieces that my wardrobe lacked. I was amazed by how the new pieces and the tweaks to how I was wearing what I have improved my wardrobe. It is so much easier to dress now. I have so much more confidence! I will not hesitate to do this again! What a gift Jill has!!! Totally worth the investment!”

“I had no idea clothing would make such a difference in my attitude. I am so thankful for you and how you help women clear their inner thoughts on how they see themselves. Your patience and keeping focus on what the client is asking for is a real talent. I modeled all my clothes for my daughter and she said “wow, that lady really got you!” I feel amazing!”

“My time spent working with Jill was inspiring! The only negative is that I waited far too long to hire her. She puts you at ease immediately and offers practical advice for curating a closet that suits your personal style, body type, and budget. Since working with Jill shopping is a pleasure versus a chore. Thank you for a wonderful experience from beginning to end.”

“I have always thought of clothes shopping with dread; the large department stores with racks of clothes, the impersonal feel, the bright lights, the inability to pick anything that I liked. Even the small boutique shops intimidated me. So I began to shop solely online, which was hit-or-miss. As a result, I had a closet full of clothes but nothing to wear. When my daughter mentioned Jill, I decided to go for it.
Jill was completely comfortable to be with: no judgement. She gave me honest feedback on some of the outfits I had kept for years ("too short for you", "um, a bit dated") but somehow I didn't feel overwhelmed. Our shopping day was pure fun. She collected outfits for my body type in styles that would flatter my figure, some which I wouldn't have picked, but they worked! I have the confidence now to find clothes that will work for me. Bravo to Jill. I highly recommend her.”

Ellamarie McMullen, Miriam Hospital Women’s Wellness Workshop
"Jill’s presentation was my favorite part of Miriam Hospital’s Women’s Wellness Workshop! She was enthusiastic and creative in her presentation and used everyday women as models to show how different types of clothing work for bodies of all shapes and sizes. I look forward to hiring Jill to go through my closet and provide her creative advice on how to make the best use of my clothing and closet space. I know that her expertise can make all the difference in my look!"

Michelle T., Fort Myers, FL
"Having been on a 12-year roller coaster with my weight, I had accumulated multiple ‘wardrobes’ over the years. Never had I considered what clothes looked best on me nor had I ever given any thought to what I wanted to project about myself with my image. Instead, I grabbed random items off the clearance racks when convenient or necessary. I had acquired a collection of clothing items that went on my body, but none that “fit” me. After a 25 pound weight loss and a lifetime commitment to wellness, my husband recently bought me the perfect birthday present — time with Jill Marinelli!"

"I am still on a high from yesterday! It’s actually a bit challenging for me to concentrate today after spending that incredible day with you. I sit here typing this email to you wearing my new skinny jeans, the wonderful grey sweater you found for me and that fantastic striped scarf. I look and feel amazing. You have absolutely changed my life! I don’t say that lightly. As you said in your radio interview, there is a direct connection between how people look and how they feel."

"What a change… I went from a drab, crumpled, conservative, and sloppy woman to one with style and flair! I hated shopping; Jill made buying clothes easy and interesting. The day we went shopping everything was ready and clothes were put together so I could see the looks she had in mind for when I needed to put them together to wear. Jill is amazing; she helped me to find my inner stylish woman!"

“From the initial consult, to the closet cleanup, to the shopping day, Jill made every step a delight! It’s daunting to invite a stranger into your life to talk about your personal style, but with Jill it’s like having your BFF come over! After each phase of the process different feelings evolved as Jill encouraged me to view clothes in a different way than I was accustomed. Learning about my body type and then selecting clothes to flatter me was a truly freeing feeling. No more mindless shopping!
Jill is friendly, kind and doesn’t come across with even a hint of judgement. You can feel immediately how sincerely she wants to help you achieve your style goals and create a way of dressing that encourages confidence, comfort and practicality.”

Lynda G., Providence Journal Makeover Winner
"As the winner of a Providence Journal makeover contest, I was the fortunate recipient of Jill’s fashion expertise. Although I always knew I was wearing the wrong size and style clothing, I didn’t domuch clothes shopping because I didn’t know what to wear. Jill changed that! In the beginning, she sent me a very detailed questionnaire to get a sense of what I like and what I wanted my image to be. I was amazed at what a difference the right style and size clothing could do. I look forward to working with Jill again to help me select a stylish, chic fall wardrobe."

Andrea M. Warwick Mall Makeover Winner
"Growing up, I was never able to identify my own personal style. When I won a style consultation and personal shopping with Jill through a contest, I was absolutely ecstatic! Jill really took the time to learn about me so that she could tailor the experience to who I am, what I wanted, and how I wanted people to perceive me. I can really say that I came out a better version of myself and I felt like a star the entire time. It also helps that I learned my pant size was actually smaller than what I was wearing!"
