Curbside Catwalk: San Jose, Costa Rica

Costa Rican Fashion+Bluefly.jpgCaterina Olguin, 20, pictured here with dad Gustavo, 45, and brother Xavier, 17, is a third generation material girl. Both grandparents on her dad's side were in the fashion biz and mother Genoveva designs the locally woven, dyed, and sewn garments her family sells out of their San Jose boutique. Caterina says their best-selling item is currently this gauzy handkerchief skirt that can be styled in three ways and converts to a sun dress. While she's not entirely sure she wants to take over her fashionable family's business, her cropped hoodie/long tee/low rider ensemble (love the rasta belt!) proves she's a natural.
