Sink: "I think that's what's so fun about fashion: that I don't have to be defined by one particular style. It's whatever I'm feeling that day."
Sink: "You can be connected to the world and in touch with your surroundings rather than being glued to your phone all the time. I’d say I’m more connected in the sense that I like to live in the moment and appreciate what’s around me."
Sink: "It's become easier to speak up for myself."
Sink: "I'm open to trying multiple different types of styles."
Sink: "I realised what goes on in the egg industry and the dairy industry, so then I was like, 'That's it! Going vegan!' and I just kind of went cold turkey, basically."
Sink: "I've always been laid back, go with the flow."
Sink: “But everyone’s different and everyone can make that decision for themselves. College is right for some people, and it’s not for others. I shouldn’t rush into it just because that’s what everyone does after high school is you go to college.”
Sink: "I knew how to drive at one point, but then I just threw that out the window, I don't do that anymore. We're learning as we go!"
Sink: "I'm usually the kind of person where if someone tells me, 'Oh my God, you have to watch this show. It's amazing,' I kind of want to go against it and not watch it. But for 'Stranger Things,' I couldn't resist. I had to watch it."
Sink: "I realized that, as a woman, you have an obligation to be a feminist."
Sink: "I'm not just edgy, and I'm not just into a tomboy look, and I'm not just girly. I do what I want, and if I like something, I'll wear it."
Sink: "Before, I would just only stick to a few certain colors that were considered good for my skin tone and good for my hair. But ever since 'Stranger Things,' the wardrobe people there, they would always stick me in these super bright colors. I discovered all these new colors that I just like wearing."
Sink: “Being on that stage every night, I fell in love. I knew that this was the direction I wanted to go with my career.”
Sink: "I'm not really about spending every second on social media. I think there's a lot more useful things you can do with your time."
Sink: "If I'm ever wearing a super-flowy dress, I like to toughen it up with a boot or something."
Sink: "I've always kind of had this interest in fashion."
Sink: "I watched the 'Food, Inc.' documentary and was like, 'This has opened my eyes to the meat industry - maybe I should go vegetarian.' And my friend told me, 'Sadie, you're not gonna last a week.' But I'm very competitive."
Sink: "I'm passionate about encouraging girls to be confident in their own skin."
SInk: "I worked with a skateboarding instructor for three hours every day. We would go to the park and do ramps. I had to wear a ridiculous amount of gear - elbow pads, knee pads, every kind of pad, plus a helmet - to stop myself from getting hurt."
Sink: "I'm a very lazy person, so I don't really do things or go out very much, but when I do get out of the house, I do get recognized a lot."
Sink: "As much as I've always dreamed of going to college, I have to think about whether it is the right decision for me."
Sink: "It's so easy to be insecure about your looks or if you're wearing the right clothes, or your hair and makeup. And I think it's just so important to stay true to who you are."
Sink: "I'm 16, and I'm still self-conscious. Everyone is at this age."
Sink: "I've been compared to a lot of redheads. Here's the thing though: you can look nothing like somebody, but if you both have red hair, all of a sudden people think you look exactly the same."
Sink: "For me, fashion is one of the biggest changes. I never got to wear Chanel or anything like that, growing up, or really experience fashion the way I get to now."
Sink: "I go through so many different phases, just like every teenage girl does."
Sink: "I knew the big following 'Stranger Things' had, and I really liked the show, but even if I hadn't known what the show was, I still really related to the character, and I really liked the material."
Sink: "I see some kids whose social media is their whole world, and I actually think it's good to disconnect from that."
Sink: "Now it's like, I'll go to Starbucks, or I'll go to the mall or anywhere, and lots of people will recognize me, and I'm like, 'Oh, wow, this is actually a thing now; this is happening.' It can get a little bit crazy at times, but I love meeting people, and people shouldn't feel scared to come up to me and say 'Hi.'"
Sink: "I'll skateboard now and then from time to time."
Sink: "My friend had told me about 'Stranger Things' and how I had to watch it. I was like, 'OK, I will!' I binged it in, like, a day and was like, 'Oh my gosh, Mom, you need to watch this show. Everyone needs to watch this.' A week later, I got the breakdown for Max. A month later, I got the part."
Sink: "If you're a child, and you're on Broadway, you automatically know every other child in a production."
Sink: "I have, like, a playlist with all my favourite songs on it. Sadie's Playlist is the soundtrack of my life. 'Wonderwall' by Oasis, 'Under The Bridge' by Red Hot Chili Peppers, TLC, 'Waterfalls' - I love the '90s."
Sink: "Chicken and waffles! I'm obsessed with those."
Sink: "To see that the campaign I did for Kate Spade is on the home page, that's insane. The number of times I've logged onto this website and just dreamed about all these clothes, and now I'm in this campaign - I'm so blessed."
Sink: "My stylist told me Chanel wanted to dress me for the 'Stranger Things' premiere. It was such a big deal for me, knowing that Chanel wanted to work with me and that I was gonna go to one of my first big red carpets wearing Chanel. That was such a huge moment for me."
