El Style! Gee, Style.

In the realm of Austin publishing, the local, free-slick-profiling-advertisers genre has a new brother. And sister.

L Style G Style, a fun little flip rag (one side Lezzie, one side Gay boy) is on the racks in classier ZIP codes around town: SoCo, the Domain, 2nd Street District, even the burgeoning Burnet Road shopping strip. In a few weeks, the mag's circulation will expand with a second distribution.

LSGS distinguishes itself a wee bit from other local slickies by being an out, queer publication – refreshing considering how subtextual but how certainly queer the aesthetics of commerce/social scene rags like Brilliant, Tribeza, Rare, and their ilk are.

Publishers Alisa Weldon and Lynn Yeldell (must to recuse: these are friends of mine) threw quite the gala this past weekend in front of the emergent Amli on 2nd (which is actually on Third), where apparently every black-clad queer in town was seen – 'cept yrs truly until the end. I got there in the waning few 15 or so minutes, having just sped in from San Marcos. Stephen McMo has a bit more fleshed out info about the throwdown it this week's After a Fashion.
