FROCKTASIA: Frocktasia on the road

I met this wonderful gorgeous woman at Can't Buy Me love on Saturday.

In the Press!

This is a very proud moment for me. I've been featured in the Kentishtowner, a great blog about Kentish Town, recently become hard copy in the form of a monthly newspaper. What's even greater is how it mentions my beloved market! it's just too fab for words...

Ich Bin Kentishtowner: Leslie Wilson-Rutterford, Dandy Lion Market Founder

Leslie at Dandy BoogCalifornian artist and longterm K-towner Leslie Wilson-Rutterford founded the popular Dandy lion Market, which sells affordable art, crafts and vintage wares monthly at The Oxford on Kentish Town Road.

Starting off the New Year with the January edition of the Dandy Lion Market



Wow! I never realised it would be so tricky to get traders, and indeed visitors to RSVP at the Jan edition, happening on the 5th, in 1 & 1/2 week's time. Everyone is away. Fortunately, I do have some, (though a few more wouldn't go amiss!) and I can easily fill out a few spaces muyself! Looking forward to confirming a new trader called Templarcraft, with her wonderful Goth and Steampunk handmades. Very fitting with the Steampunk Cruise coming up in March.




So, let's ease into 2013 with style. After a very busy and exciting 2012, the January Dandy will be offering a warm and cosy haven from the hullabaloo, with it's usual fine array of art, craft and vintage. Join us in the parlour for a post-New Year's recovery session of hot drinks, food and fabulous wares.
