My grandmother, Isabel Macleod, was born and raised in Paisley, Scotland. When she was sixteen she moved to London to model professionally. This is when her love of fashion started. She traveled some when modeling, to New York and Paris and started collecting clothes and expanding her wardrobe.
In 1954 she and her husband Angus moved to New York City, and in 1958 they moved to Pensacola. She has lived in Pensacola ever since where I can go by her house and explore her many closets full of clothes she collected over the years. She continued to travel just for fun over the next few decades so her wardrobe is very diverse.
Thanks to the many years that she has collected and kept all her clothes, I now have a vintage goldmine to shop in for FREE! My grandmother is very generous and lets me wear, borrow, have any clothes she has that don’ t fit her anymore or that she just doesn’ t wear that often.
