In England, dotted along our fair Isle are a little boutique chain where I have been purchasing their fine wares since mid 1990s.

Since the council moved everyone out of the Corn exchange, Leeds, and made a right ole mess of things, the little boutiques had to find other premises. Pop -Boutique have opened up in a new location nearer Harvey Nichols. Its a larger store with loads more merchandise than they could have in their smaller boutique at the Corn Exchange

In my music video 'Softly Gently', you can see one of their fabric bags I purchased in their small stall at Afflecks Palace, Manchester. I also used to wear their flared cord jeans, but they have not been stocking them recently. I am sad to say, they do not do the fabric bags any more. On both websites they have a limited range but you can find more little goodies inside their stores. But I am liking their pinafore dresses. I may go for the pinafore look this Spring and Summer to match my manga hair style. lol. or I may end up looking a right prat!
I do have quite a few vintage clothes in my wardrobe that will no longer fit me. No way will I fit into a size small again. I may have to set up shop on amazon or ebay because they are still in good condition despite being well loved. And will be well missed.
