Misha Renteria loves running but not nearly as much as she loves fashion. After spending most of 2010 traveling Europe and swooning over street fashion, she’s back in Phoenix, managing the new G Star RAW store in Fashion Square Mall, finishing half marathons and inspiring others with her fresh fashion insight.
Renteria says she believes style is not only about clothing, it’s about confidence and daring to try new things.

Will you step up to support New Times this year?
