local designer focus: EDACITY



a really great friend of mine (Sally Ann de Klerk) together with one of her friends (Kelsey Locke) have created an amazing new clothing label called EDACITY. It is a very cool range full of vintage classics with contemporary touches.

their aim is to provide easily-accessible very individual designs to style-seekers looking for original items of the best quality to suite their personal vogue. they create everyday items, items you want to wear on a night out as well as evening gowns.

you can get in contact with the creators of EDACITY,  Kelsey and Sally via their blog edacity blog or by checking out their facebook page to see what else they have to offer and make orders edacity facebook page
