Toronto, Ontario - Lee Kirsty is designer
specializing in bags for women, but her work is certainly not the typical
blend-looking, mass manufactured, expensive bag that is available at a store
near you. Anything but. Lee Kirsty coined the term ARM ART to describe her bags
because they are more than just something to throw over your shoulder – they
can express a personality. All her bags are handmade and can be customized in
countless ways to fit any personality. "My bags
are meant to be funny, eye catching and just down right silly but still provide
today's women with function,” says Lee. “People should have fun with
accessories and expect nothing less from Lee Kirsty Designs.”
What started is a simply hobby utilizing a $200 sewing machine and a bin of old
jeans, soon expanded into a full-time, booming business. In May 2002, Lee Kirsty
Designs was born. Now Lee Kirsty bags are sold in the US, Canada, as well as
worldwide via the web. Since taking the risk and reinventing the handbag
industry with her own label, she has been featured in publications such as
ElleGirl, Oyster (UK), YM, Fashion 18, Moda Magazine, Fifth Avenue Magazine et
cetera.
Her bags have even wandered into the hands of a number of celebrities at the
Atlanta Recording Academy Hero awards, and women across the world have began
collecting her bags, and trading with friends, something that is certainly
encouraged through the “VIP Arm Art Club” on http://www.leekirsty.com.
Lee Kirsty continues moving full speed ahead,
following her dreams. “There are
no limits for me now, it's up to me to fulfill my dreams and I am shooting for
the stars and you should too,” says Lee, “Turn your dreams into
goals, and start working towards a new passion.”
