Who is Rachel ?….and why is the store A Little Bit of Rachel named after her?

Rachel was my mother and best friend who passed away from cancer at Mass General Hospital, Boston, February 6, 2005.  My dad (Fred) subsequently passed away the following year, having been with her for 50, on May 4, 2006.

The store became a solution to a problem for me.  Left as an only child to sort through the many treasures my mother had collected in her fashion passion, time capsule treasure trove I knew existed in the attic, a store in honor of her memory as a tribute seemed like an idea with dignity.  Yard sales from hell just didn’t work.  Don’t get me wrong, I’ve made enormous donations to lazarus house homeless shelters, daughters of charity, salvation army and project care, along with free for friends and any good home anywhere.  Even with that, mom had some vintage retro treasures that were so rare and well taken care of they deserved good homes….that would be you….

If you or someone you know loves rare vintage and retro clothing, jewelry and accessories, please spread the word.  LOOKING FOR GOOD HOMES!  Mom had class, fun, feminine zeal for life, and she appreciated the smallest to the greatest moments in life.  Please view the photo gallery too.  I’d like to think there are more “Rachel Girls” out there, who will find and cherish her personal shopping style, so she can live on through you.  It’s not just about the clothes, it’s about Rachel and everything she exemplified as my mom and very best friend, and spreading those noble qualities with her.

THANK YOU for sharing….A Little Bit of Rachel with me…
