Styling suits seems like a daunting task but it's relatively easy. The suit should be a staple of every modern woman's wardrobe. The great thing about the suit is its versatility. From business casual to dressy to everyday wear the suit is here to stay this spring. With bright colours all around, suits this season are a great pick to introduce some of these colours into your wardrobe.  The great...

Let’s get socialWe hear such lovely comments and feedback about our shop and the things you have bought and coveted over the years. Many of you take the time to tell us in person, some on social media and it never ceases to make me smile, it really is appreciated.

Christmas Windows This feels like the first ‘normal’ Christmas for a long time so we wanted to do Christmas is style.  I’m not a massive fan of Christmas decorations (much to Mr M’s disgust) but I’m absolutely in love with the new navy and rose gold glitter baubles in our windows.  If you’re going to go big, GO BIG!  After a lot of ribbon stitching and bow tying, they are...

Thank you to everyone who came along, it was so lovely to chat and help you find...

It feels as if this summer hasn’t arrived yet and I’m already well into buying for spring/summer ’23.  It  might seem crazy buying so far in advance but for me, it’s far easier buying for next summer whilst still in summer mode, I would find it impossible buying summer dresses and sandals whilst wrapped up in several layers and a big coat! So, for the next 3 months, I’m out...

Many of you may know our back story, Escape was established in 2004 in the corner unit as a shoe shop, how we’ve changed!  Just a year later the old book shop next door unexpectedly became available and we made the decision to take it and introduce clothes, best decision we ever made.  The shop grew, as did our following, we introduced accessories, jewellery and gifts and we continued to...
