  Hi there. http://thatbasicbitch.co/ is a WordPress.com site. In other words, you are hosted by WordPress.com.

  We do not have any FTP access on WordPress.com blogs, nor do we have the ability to install plugins or custom themes. Having your own domain name does not change this, nor do any upgrades.

  If you require FTP access you’ll need to look into the self-hosted option using the WordPress.org software.
