It’s not easy raising kids alone, but Debra Weiss has been doing it for two decades and has managed to also start her own accessories and apparel business. Originally a one-woman operation, Debra’s daughter Hillery eventually joined the design team and the pair became known as rebe.

Debra and Hillery’s creations are instantly recognizable for their eclectic use of fabrics; just a quick scan through their inventory reveals a broad cross section of styles, ranging from paisley prints to kimono fabrics to something I might have dug out of an 80s workout video. What this means is that not every piece will suit you, but chances are you’ll find a few that do.

There is definitely a sort of patchwork approach to rebe’s handbags, clothing and various accessories, yet without the frayed edges or discolorations you might expect; these are clean, well-assembled pieces that are sure to delight for many years to come.
