Sunsets on the East Side

If I was an eighteen year designer bursting at the seams(no pun intended) with talent I can’t promise I would be anywhere near as modest as the three girls who make up the design company “Sunsets on the East Side”. Katryna Crabbe, Kirsten Sweet and Jackie Skinner of Queens County Prince Edward Island first debuted their clothing line at PEI fashion week in 2006 when they were barely sixteen years old. Now two years later, the girls have formed a small company and sell their cute wares both online and at the local vintage hipster haven.
As if is this isn’t reason enough to be impressed with the self possessed and ambitious eighteen year old girls-the clothing they design also tends to leave local fashion lovers breathless. The pieces in their most recent collection vary widely as each girl’s
sense of style lends something a little different to the clothes. Jackie’s designs are the most artful and involve bold colors, big funky buttons and crazy prints. Kirstin cites American designer Christopher Wang and street fashion blogs like Hel-Looks as influences and her clothes reflect that by being both way feminine and punky(think Sonic Youth‘s Kim Gordon). Finally Katrina’s designs are classic and offer up an old time movie star glamour that isn’t seen often on the streets of Charlottetown.
So what’s up next for the talented teens? The girls are plotting their next line, working on updating the company web-site, and are psyched to be launching a fashion blog. To contact Sunsets on the East Side, add them to facebook or e-mail the girls at sunsetsontheeastside@gmail.com

Digital Replica Chanel Watches for men usually have a single digital face, but may also have a primary analog movement with smaller digital timekeeping element. So, affective on to numbers.

You actually make it seem so easy with your presentation but I find this matter to be really something that I think
I would never understand. It seems too complicated and very broad
for me. I am looking forward for your next post, I will try to get the hang of it!
