Scottish Fashion Awards

Hoots mon! Not only do they drink scotch and chase haggis round the fields dressed in sporrans and kilts... They also contribute to tartan, cashmere and wool designs throughout the world of fashion (let’s not forget Vivienne Westwood’s use of the Royal Stuart).

I'm glad you're talking about Scotland (I'm living there, so...). There is also the Edinburgh international fashion festival which is about to launch very soon (26/29 april), with Vivienne Westwood, Jonathan Saunders, April Chrichton, Niki Taylor and all these people coming. I'm reading your blog since a while now, and I never took one minute to say "bravo", but it's one of my favorites :-)

Hello. I also read your blog and thought I'd take a leaf out of lady's book and say hello and let you know that you have another fan :)

I've just started my own shoe blog at www.strut-it.blogspot.com

i'm happy to see that everyone is starting to appreciate the creative talent that scotland has to offer.so often we look to other countries for inspiration when really its on our doorstep. I
would like to view some work by the latest awards winners, so if possible it would be great to see some links to these websites on this blog. ta
