This new store Razzberry Lips at Westgate Mall is by far the best place we’ve ever had our daughters birthday party. The girls had the best time ( at a Makeover Party) and each parent told us it was also wonderful! They do makeovers, dance , karaoke and play games! Also they sell really cute stuff.

Little Swiss House is a gem among chain stores – I beg to differ.
Both Barbara Soifer and her husband Bob Amaral are the most personable
and courteous jewelry (or other!) store operators I have ever encountered.
They remember you, greet you, offer you candy and treats, and talk at length
to you about where your item came from, etc. I find their prices to be very fair,
and many times, Barbara has given me a great cut in price. The place is just as
welcoming as it is immaculate and sparkling.
I can’t recommend shopping there enough.
Lastly, not only has Barbara distinguished herself by operating a beautiful
small business for so many years and for continuing a family business that began
in Scollay Square, Boston, but she has been very active in Brookline town affairs.
I knew of her long before I ever went into the store. She has run a Cable TV
show interviewing lesser-known local talents for many years. She began town
festivals such as “First Light Brookline”, the Washington Square Fair and the
Music Fair, and she orchestrated the placement of the beautiful Victorian clock
that graces Washington Square. These are only a few of the things I read about
her accomplishments before I ever met her. She has also been very active in
the Chamber of Commerce.
I’m not sure why this particular writer had such bad things to say about the
Little Swiss House. Perhaps she had some issue of her own to grind. I myself
could not say a bad thing, and in fact can say nothing less that fantastic things,
about the LSW and its proprietors. Aside from the gems in their showcases,
they themselves are the real local treasure.
