CHICAGO — Sisters Leti and Ericka Espinosa and their partner, Gabriel Neely-Streit, never dreamed they would own an iconic retail business on Chicago’s magnificent mile. Their store, Colores Mexicanos, sells handmade ceramics, textiles and fine art in partnership with over 100 artisans from all over Mexico.

“It’s not just a store; it’s an experience,” Ericka Espinosa said. “It’s like an adventure every day.”

Walking into the store is a head-turning experience that mesmerizes customers with vibrant colors and eye-popping art. Neely-Streit said the sisters have taught him a lot about Mexican culture, helping him realize the importance of the store for visitors to the Windy City.

“Erika and Leti are role models for me,” Neely-Streit said. “Chicago is probably the most important Mexican-American city in the Midwest. So, we receive a lot of people who don’t have a broader understanding of the culture than maybe the one Mexican restaurant in their hometown.”
