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 .
