Rachel taught us how to accessorize with leathery necklaces topped off with a pendant that totally meant something but also totally didn't.

When she wasn't wearing a pendant necklace, it was all about the chokers. Tight to the neck and high on style.

What was the '90s if not the glory days of denim? Rachel taught us how to wear it right.

Prime example of denim done right: Rachel's overalls outfits.

One time, Rachel wore a sweater with a simple argyle design on the front. That holiday season we ALL had a similar sweater on our wish list.

The '90s was the time of grunge, which meant plaid was all the way in. And Rachel knew!

Would we have dared to bare our tummies if Rachel hadn't shown us the way?

Never too much but always just enough.

Leaning against a wall with legs crossed with the ankles or one foot up on the wall. Leaning toward the camera. The crossed-arm pose was so '90s and all Rachel.

Short skirts and tall boots: That's what the '90s were made of!

Thanks to Rachel we were all trying to stuff a collared shirt under a sweater until the geniuses of fashion gave us sweaters with collars already in them.

She wore them baggy and tight. We followed suit.

Rachel was the original cool girl. The loose pajama look, the big Knicks sweatshirt.Low-key gems.

Sometimes they were shirts. Sometimes they were vests. Every time they were perfect.

Rachel's makeup was understated to give her a girl-next-door look. Ironically, a great deal of makeup was purchased to replicate this "natural" look at vanities across America.

Even before her signature cut, Rachel's hair was always flawless. But then came...

Once Rachel fluffed and whipped this timeless style, women the world over lost their minds. People are still sporting The Rachel today.
