Moda Urbana: “Whatever the weather, I’m still lookin’ good.”
By Victoria Molinar aka “Giggles”
Even with the windy/rainy weather, I was able to spot people looking fab. The guy with the tats calls himself Flinch. Notice his cartoon artwork of Hello Kitty, Stewie from Family Guy and a Powerpuff girl. And he still looks tough! Nice eyes too…

Moda Urbana 6.29.09: Downtown El Paso Fashionistas
When the summer months bring in that nasty heat, it’s hard for a lady to look hot, without looking “hot.” Intern Victoria Molinar (known internally as “Giggles”) spotted these two ladies over by the Boxer Mural on Stanton.

Hiking in the Franklin Mountains
Comments (1)Recently I joined a sunrise hiking group that hikes various trails on the Franklin Mountains at sunrise several days a week. Park volunteers, trail experts and generic citizens are in the group and the hike starts @ 6 a.m. and ends at 8 a.m. If you are interested in learning more about hiking trails on the Franklins or joining the group, email Jim Tolbert @ jimhtolbert@elp.rr.com. Pictured here is Jim, and his outfit is perfect for hiking.-Lisa Degliantoni

Leave a Comment This week a new Facebook group was born: My El Paso Garden. The function of the group is to work as an online food coop, where users list harvest items they are willing to swap and then meet in physical locales to trade food. Also listed on the group page is photos from El Paso gardens that will inspire just about anyone to plant some seeds in some dirt! Pictured below is a recent harvest from my garden, lettuce.-Lisa Degliantoni

Leave a Comment It’s that time of year when boys wear light suits, but white suits? Our very ambitious intern, Victoria Molinar, grabbed this photo of City Council Rep. Beto O’Rourke during today’s City Council meeting lunch break. We have only one thing to say about this outfit: what’s up with the shoes, Mr. Gatsby?
6.24.09: correction: our facebook friends pointed out that city rep beto o’rourke’s suit is a butter cream, not white. will update blog and apologies to global fashionistas and fbfs.

Moda Urbana 6.19.09 Simple Glamour
by Jessica Escalante
On Thursday evening, I had the pleasure of attending a Press Party for Bring it Downtown: A Fashion Event. I met local designers, business owners, and makeup artists. I absolutely loved this dress, but the best part was that the woman wearing it made it!
The dress was simple, elegant, and sexy. Notice how impeccable the draping in the back is. Sometimes less is more.

I spotted these two sisters downtown on Saturday night. I thought they looked like dolls. I love how they kept their tops basic and let the skirts give the WOW factor. I also love the rhinestone detailing on the gray skirt. Crinoline+Rhinestones=F-U-N!
