Deceiptful charlatan...

About Me

Okay, chicos y chicas: Xochico ( Xochico.com ) is a small, indepedent clothing company based in OC, California. Still run by one person -- me, ¡aay caramba! -- though I work with about 6 cool artists/designers.
Things are looking up. Mostly sell in So Cal, but starting to get out there. Got a few out of state and 1-2 international customers. I'll try to put some designs on this page, but you can always check the website for more info.
Oh, I put this page up because 1) people were telling me I should get on myspace; and 2) I had to put it up since I was part of the Myspace booth at the August 2005 MAGIC show in Las Vegas. (It sucked for me, as my blogs will attest.) Funny, I'm finding a lot of friends here, new & old. It's more fun than I thought.
For anyone wanting to see me unmasked, click HERE . Don't go there if you don't want to ruin the mystique, BELIEVE me.
Uh, I can't think of anything else right now. Got to go back to the chamba!
