Rosa's Shop Closing story

March Madness will soon give way to March Sadness as Rosa’s Shop, one of Culver City’s longest-established businesses closes its doors for good within the next two weeks.
Rosa’s established itself in 1971 when Rafael and Rosa Legra opened their doors to the community by selling Italian gold jewelry. However, it wasn’t long before the two entrepreneurs from Cuba decided to expand their offerings to dresses, wedding gowns, and accessories for baptisms, proms, newborns, and Catholic ceremonies.
Rosa Legra Jr., 56, the daughter of the original owners, has been running the store for the past 10 years and decided that due to persistent health problems, this would be the store’s last year, at least as a physical location. Legra Jr. plans to continue the store as a purely online enterprise run by her two 20-something sons. Plans for the online store are still in the development stage.
“The hardest part [of the store closing] is not seeing my regular customers,” Legra Jr. “When they come in for their bridal gown and they bring their baby for their baptism, and then communion, and prom and they get married, it just keeps going and going and going.”
Rosa’s Shop is located at 4352 Sepulveda Blvd.

🙏Even though the words baptism and christening are used interchangeably, 😇there is a subtle difference. Christening refers to the naming ceremony (to christen means to give a name to) where as baptism is one of seven sacraments in the Catholic Church. In the sacrament of Baptism the baby's name is used and mentioned, however it is the rite of claiming the child for Christ and his Church that is celebrated. Baptism represents a deliberate act of identification with the person of Jesus Christ and his Church. This day is incredibly special for any family with a little one. We offer a wide selection of organza and silk and even some cotton baptism and christening dresses with beautiful lace and beaded appliques. Our christening dresses are made of fine bridal fabrics that will preserve for future generations of wearing and will make you proud that day. Most of our christening gowns and dresses come with the sweet matching bonnets that coordinate with the delicate details of the dress. We understand the importance of this special day and what it means to your family and loved ones. We are sure that you will be pleased and thrilled with not only our quality christening dresses, but the value of the affordability of what the outfit looks like. Find all the perfect christening accessories such as shoes, booties, blankets and candle sets to complete the look.
