Betsy and Me

So, whilst I was in the west end yesterday I stumbled upon what some people may consider, if they knew me that is, a shop that is Ally down to a tea! Now alot of people probably know about this shop already as it opened 6 months ago. However I was in London at the time so I had no idea about it! Anyway, its an underwear shop called Betsy la Belle but they also sell vintage stuff which of course means....NIGHTIES! BODY STOCKINGS! BUSTIERS! BED JACKETS! etc etc. I was so happy to find this tiny little shop that I HAD to get my mum to buy me a birthday present!hahaha!I got an amazing frilly bed jacket which is the lovliest pale blue colour, I can't wait to get it.She also got my gran a little blue bed jacket....bless.
I'll definately be going back once I sort my finances out.

Okay, so here's a bit about me ..............

................I am currently residing in the Gorbals with my boyfriend Craig and our 2 new kittens Luella and Frank.
I lived in London for a while this year as I was accepted to London College of Fashion but sadly I could no longer afford to stay so I had to move back home.
Right now I'm not working but I volunteer at Barnardos in Duke St. I used to work here before I left for LDN and I really wish I could have my job back :-(
I'm also 'trying' to stop being so lazy and get my sewing machine out and make stuff!
Although I sometimes pretend not to, I DO heart fashion tons, especially vintage. I think just lack of money and the fact my house is a mess distracts me from it right now!
