Summer is my favorite time of
year. What could be better than long
sunny days and warm starry nights, driving
to the beach with the top down and
splashing in the surf? Of course summer
also means it’s time to shop for a cool
new swimsuit, so we’ve designed eight
pages of smashing sun-and-sand ideas to
get you in the mood.
We’re thrilled to feature actress Laura
Elena Harring on our cover, since we’ve
all admired her work for years. As you
can see from this photo, it takes more
than just a guy with a camera to produce
stunning shots like the ones in our layout.
We also have a story on one of my
favorite new groups, Los Lonely Boys.
If you haven’t tried camping yet, our
travel feature may inspire you this season.
Or maybe you’d rather relax on the patio
with one of our cool, delicious summer
drinks and the latest issue of Estylo. While
you’re at it, don’t forget to plan your own
Tex-Mex barbecue, with the help of some
very special creative tips from our resident
party animal, El Don.
As this issue went to press, we at
Estylo were saddened by the death of 19-
year-old singing sensation Adan Sanchez,
who was killed in a car crash in Sinaloa,
Mexico. Our condolences go out to his
family and fans and we will be looking at
his life and work in our next issue.
