[Fashionably] Wasted on Melrose

Betsey Johnson rules. She makes seapunk kids look like they should be in a Sears catalog. OK, so maybe that’s a bit of an exaggeration…BUT, she’s f-ing rad and we love her.  She popped into our Melrose store yesterday to film her new reality show, “Betsey & LuLu” set to air on the Style Network in 2013. Tune in when it airs, and make sure to tell us how awesome our acting was.
