Vintage clothing and accessories

I feel the need to rant about how journalists always misquote everything!!!!

I had a phonecall yesterday from a woman who was in the shop, she said she was from the evening standard and they were goin around doin a survey of local shops to see how they had been affected by the recession. I was hungover from the night before and just had a little rant about how the euro was ruining my life and how i wished people would stop shopping in Primarni and such like and embrace independent shops for their individuality…

I just found out that i am actually in tonight’s paper!

I have been quoted as saying -

“My takings are down by 25 per cent compared with last Christmas.

“It would help if they brought the rents down. If something doesn’t give then I might lose everything.”

erm i don’t think so, i was mega positive and tryin to get it accross that i thought it would get better sooner than people thought…

‘Natalie Farouz, who owns vintage shop Shock and Soul in Camden Passage, has been forced to close half her business.’

Erm why would i want to tell people half my business is closed when it actually isn’t??? Both shops are sill very much OPEN!!!!!!

I feel well mugged off!

Both shops are still very open and we have an amazing sale on, so come quickly, just don’t speak to any journalists on your way x

The plane journey back was LONG! But it’s all good, me and Carley are back from L.A with a few little treats in our suitcases….

Plenty plenty of sunglasses with us, but most of the stock has had to be freighted, cos there was just soooooo much of it…

Now back we’re doin a massive sale to get rid of stock we’ve had for ages, doesn’t mean it’s bad stuff just had it for a while and wanna be fresh…

So get yourselves down to the shop and grab a bargain, dresses from as little as £5!!!!

Watched ‘walk the line’ on the plane, if you haven’t seen it go watch it!
