Downtown Dispatch: LUXury Coffee

In midtown Phoenix is a tiny coffee shop that has a lot of heart to it. LUX Coffee Bar is an intimate coffee shop that offers hand-crafted, quality espresso-based drinks and also some of the most delicious pastries around. When I first started coming to the downtown campus, I took myself on a tour of the city to scope out all the important things: coffee shops, restaurants, and vintage stores.

Palm Walk Runway: Bright and Bold

Even with a few gloomy days of spring showers, the weather is definitely not stopping fashionistas around campus. Fashionista Courtney Cordoba took advantage of the sunshine one afternoon before the clouds decided to visit us yet another time. I was immediately drawn to the fuchsia color of Courtney’s dress.

Palm Walk Runway: Hardcore Bracelets

As I was searching for various fashion trends, I came across a very unique bracelet. Designer Proenza Schouler has a collection of bracelets that look as if they were made with a rock climber’s bungee cords, and carabiner clasps. The bracelets are made in a variety of colors and designs, each one completely different from the other. The cord bracelets are perfect for the spring and summer, with their bright vibrant colors and laid-back feel.

College is full of stress, anxiety, endless colds and the flu. When students get sick, some turn to herbal medicine rather than Western pharmaceuticals.

Downtown Dispatch: Ann Taylor's Wardrobe

The Phoenix Art Museum is continuing on with their “The Year of Fashion at the Phoenix Art Museum” with one of their recent exhibits, “The Original Style of Ann Bonfoey Taylor.” So last Wednesday when the Phoenix Art Museum was free for the evening, I set some time aside to spend exploring, admiring, and reading up on the life and clothing of Ann Taylor.
