Were so in ♥ with our B&L babies that its hard to part with them. We saw M.I.A in her Flash jacket in 'Paper Planes' and that reminded us just how hot our FJ is. So much so that we sooooooooo dont want to give her up.

But we will be parting with this silk FJ cause we love you guys!! Go grab it

Introducing mini Betsy & Lola.

So we always wanted our own little Betsy & Lola's and now we have them.

Watch our Annie and Mabel grow and develop their own individual styles and love for vintage.

They dress themselves and decide what glad rags they will be wearing day to day. You can not tell these two what to wear. They are stylist's in the making. Mabel ♥'s any thing fashion and is a big fan of Gok. Annie ♥'s dresses and will tell you whether you look good or not, even if you didn't ask! They are both real girlie girls. We over ♥ them both.

Our photo shoot of Annie and Mabel.............. boy was it a day to remember.

Ok so yeah they look cute but jeeeeeeeze, we actually thought we were working with Mariah Carey and Naomi Campbell! These girls were not divas in the making they were D-I-V-A QUEENS!!!

Annie says "don't do that!" "Take it from the left, thats my best side!"



"im not sitting next to her!"

We says "here Mabel put your gloves on"
Mabel replies "oh no thank you, you can do that for me!"


" Excuse me, I think we deserve a rest now, we've been standing ALL day!"
- 3minutes and 2 pictures into the shoot

And this was the result of our 3 and 1/2 minute shoot. That felt like 3 and 1/2 days work, may we add. Thank you Annie and Mabel for everything, the stress, the laughs and the great photos. We would like to say lots more coming soon but with these young ladies, who knows they were REAL hard work!


To finally nail this photo we had to set the scene.

"Annie you are waiting for the bus and its late! Mabel you are tired of waiting, tap your feet and dream of tea and cakes"

"Yes we have it" "its a wrap" move over Campbell, your throne has to be given up for Annie and Mabel.

Hello we are Betsy & Lola and we deliver the most delicious slice of vintage clothing you can find online. Yes you will not be able to resist a piece of B&L.

So let me introduce myself im Lola and this blog will mostly be written by me HELLO!!

So after much hard work, our baby is now up and running. Mostly thanks to the lovely Betsy. A round of applause please. I bet she's blushing. Nah she's properly bowing who I am kidding.


So im going to take you guys back, back, back in the day when we were tap, tap tapping away me 'B' and our vintage toes.

Yeah that's right im going to take you from A to B all the way to C . Were at A now in case you didn't know.

If we had to sum up our feelings for vintage in one song it would be Mariah Carey - I'll be loving you long time.

I didn't always have vintage fever I caught the bug from my mother Rose who is one of our most cherished buyers. Rose has inspired me throughout my teenage years to express my personality through my clothing. She always has had the confidence to wear whatever she felt no matter how different or off key. Rose was never too fused about high street shops. Charity shops were her passion even when money was short she always looked GOOD. It started with me stealing her broches and scarves. Then came the pearls, dresses, coats, shoes and hats my favorite passion.

Betsy came in to our family and she too was drawn to the threads of the past. Rose began to find special treats for her scarves, chains and so on. Betsy then found her Grans treasure chest of goodies and she hasn't turned back since.


When our friends would be down the high street we would be at jumble sales, car boots and charity shops. Before long our mates wanted to know where we got our kit from our answer would be. "Its VINTAGE darling".

This has now been passed on to my daughter Mabel who is four, when ever she is given a compliment about a dress she is wearing. She will do three things.


1) A full spin

2) Pull her dress up and show every layer till you get a peak of her hello kitty knickers.

3) Respond with "thanks its VINTAGE darling"



Ok so let me get to how the website plan came about before I bore you anymore.

Our friends liked what we wore so we started selling our stuff to them. Then we started sourcing pieces for friends of friends and the ball kept rolling.

One day Betsy was like " Were good at doing this why do we do these crap 9 till 5's lets do what we love…………..

Betsy and Lola was born.

One Love xx
