"My Hair Has Been A Lifelong Journey Of Accepting Its Ebb And Flow…"
By Devri Velazquez · Updated June 15, 2015

Introduce yourself!

I’m Sara Armstrong. I am a fashion designer, currently working out of Vancouver, BC, Canada.

How would you describe your personal style?

I love menswear. I think of my own personal style as minimalist. I do not often wear pattern or color. I love textures so I am more likely to mix up different pieces but stick to a monochromatic palette! I keep my beauty routine pretty basic and natural.

Where I have a bit of fun is in lipstick and hair! My hair has always been wild and curly, I usually let it do its thing. A lifelong journey of accepting its ebb and flow! There are a lot of “Hat Days”. But I think It will always be my strongest feature so why not color it blue, grey, whatever.

Where do you draw inspiration from?

In terms of my work, inspiration comes from art, music, architecture, history, a crush.

My hair has always been wild and curly, I usually let it do its thing.

What is your favorite trend right now?

I am really into flares and flouncing right now! Bell sleeves, flared hems, full circle skirts and tops–drama, drama, drama.

What is your favorite quote right now (or motto”> and why?

I am always capturing little quotes and mottos to remind myself of what’s important. I think right now it’s “eventually, everything connects”.

What exciting projects are you currently working on?

I am currently working on the launch of my online store, launching this summer. sararmstrong.com.
