Elle is a magazine that stays on the leading edge of fashion, beauty, and lifestyle trends. This women's magazine is published in 32 countries by Hachette Filipacchi Magazines (a French Company).Elle Magazine has become the world's leading fashion magazine for every woman in today's society. This magazine features fashion and beauty trends, lifestyles and personalities. Elle addresses new styles and runway trends in today's fashion and beauty world. Elle also includes controversial issues in contemporary society to inform their subscribers of emerging talent across all areas of popular culture.Elle magazine features runway shows and great articles for readers with sophistication. Covers cuisine and personalities and also gives you tips on travel plus guides to finding the best fashion and beauty styles to suit you. Elle brings the superstar look to the average lady and allows you to find your most beautiful self at any age.The first new fashion and style magazine. Ablaze with bold color, fresh looks, new ideas.

Its what style setting women prefer to read.For a fashion magazine Elle is definitely one of the ones that includes a few real articles here and there, vs. your typical mindless fashion mag. Also, the fashion shots are artistic and creative.I would recommend Elle over many other fashion magazines. It's tasteful and doesn't contain crude sexual insight, but is entertaining and semi-factual. Article subjects differ and are constantly of interest.Elle has a memorable article in every other issue including interesting fashion and beauty tips.

Elle is for affluent successful young women desiring couture fashion, beauty and fitness advice. Editorials are well written and entertaining.Elle provides what you expect from a fashion magazine - and more - catering to the fashionable, smart, sophisticated, woman interested in more than just fashion.Elle unlike other magazines, does a great job at keeping things simple. It boasts only four sections - On The Cover, Fashion, Features and Beauty and Fitness. A big thumbs up from me on this aspect. I hate it when a magazine creates 12 categories for things that can be lumped into a couple.If you're a female between the ages of 16 and 40, then the advertisements might be of interest to you. Products include make-up (Clinique, Estee Lauder, L'Oreal, Maybelline); clothing (Ann Taylor, Ralph Lauren, Calvin Klein, Tommy Hilfiger); jewelry (Swatch, Piaget, Fendi); and perfume (Giorgio Armani, Dior). Nothing original - I'm sure the same ads are appearing in all of the other fashion magazines.Discover everything you need to find the look you love. From cutting-edge runway trends to stylish steals and must-have accessories, ELLE Magazine helps you create your kind of chic.

Every issue is full of expert tips and secrets on hair, skin, make-up, health and fitness to keep you glowing. Elle sits somewhere between Vogue, Allure, and Marie Claire, without Vogue's coldness or narcissistic qualities, and Allure's sometimes vapid and repetitive articles about make-up trends, and with articles that are a bit more intelligent at times than Marie Claire's. I like the fact that Elle also features an "Eco" or "Green" issue that supports and gives recognition to organic cosmetics, etc.To conclude my article i would have to say, is this brain surgery? No. Is this the best magazine ever published? No. But if you like female, fashion magazines that are thick on advertisements and have an article or two that appeal to you, pick Elle up, you won't be disappointed.

The Highly Detailed Details Magazine

Review courtesy of Click Here

Details Magazine is written for real men and features advice on fashion, love, women and careers. This is a magazine for intelligent men who can process more than pretty faces and fast cars, and offers in-depth exclusives with favorite artists, actors, and musicians, as well as honest looks into men's fashion. Details is smart, sexy and fun. Details explores the world for young men and is first with news on fashion, women, movies, music, and celebrities. A daring, distinctive magazine for men who are passionate about adventure, style, music, fashion, sports, politics, humor and pop culture. Each issue will satisfy all your passions. It is as smart and sophisticated as you are. On the whole, Details magazine seems to have carved out an unusual identity for itself in the world of men’s magazines.

Details also has the tradition of getting recently-minted personalities to pen articles. Previous inductees include Lauren Weinberger (The Devil Wears Prada) and Mark Simpson (who coined the “metrosexual” term). Details also has the dubious honor of having a minor monopoly on stories on almost-over-the-hill personalities. In the past, Matthew McConaughey was a regular coverboy with his try-hard antics on being his generation’s next action star. Then there was this past feature on Michael Douglas as an ageing Lothario. here are quite a few magazines geared toward a primarily male audience and while there may not be as many for men as for women, men’s magazines are often more daring in what they print; appealing to the man who likes to live life a little more on the edge. One magazine like this is Details, a magazine for the trendy male. Details and its its fashion pages are mindfully straightforward and clothes are captioned, posed and shot in the same model-please-stand-sit-there style, similar to the way Men’s Health does it. Yes, it is predictable and yes, it is routine. But the flip side is, it is uncomplicated and the target-market–magazine-reading Wall Street, straight men get it.Details is an interesting magazine that caters to men of various ages and lifestyles.

The main group that Details aims to capture is the 17 to 35 year- old male but there are articles in each magazine that could be appealing to men of many different ages, mostly in the middle to upper income groups.The writing in this magazine is on the edge and very blunt. It is common to find several four- letter words in many of the articles and while this doesn’t bother me at all, I know that some readers will consider it too raw, too edgy, and too explicit. Details writers have no problem telling it like it is, and this can be both good and bad depending on one’s perspective.Tired of reading magazines packed full of just ads and senseless gibberish? Then Details magazine is for you.First of all, it is one of the least expensive magazines I have subscribed to in recent years.

I like to subscribe to such magazines as Sports Illustrated, Rolling Stone, GQ, and a few others, but Details is the one that gets my attention.Of all the magazines I have subscribed to in the past, the top two would be Details and Rolling Stone. However, the difference between these two is that when I read Rolling Stone, I go for the pictures, and flip to musical articles that get my attention. I enjoy reading Rolling Stone, but when Details arrives at my house, I know immediately that almost an hour of my life is going to be consumed immediately by reading through the entire magazine.Almost everyone knows what I am talking about when I say that you just don't normally read the ENTIRE magazine. Sure, there are a few people out there that are media freaks and WILL read every word, but its not the norm. We read the interesting articles and save the rest for really boring days, just in case.With Details, even the small print articles, the polls, subscriber letters, etc., are exciting and interesting.The thing that I like about Details is the information that I always close the magazine with.

Some would say this is useless information, and while I agree it won't get me a pay raise or a merit of honor, I think it's interesting to be able to tell something to my friends at work or my family that I know without a doubt they have never heard of. Things that make them say "MMMMM".If you like Rolling Stone, you will love Details. If you like entertainment of all types, you will love Details. Give one magazine a chance to change the entire way you look at magazines.

NG covers a huge range of interesting topics. I like the fact that the reader can choose how deep they want to dig into the magazine.Sometimes you just want a little brain candy, so you look at the pictures and maybe read the captions. Other times you want it all, so you read every word of an article about some obscure topic like "leaf-cutting ants of the congo". No matter how you decide to use it, you're guaranteed to find something new and interesting.
National Geographic is possibly the most inspiring magazine I have ever read. I started reading NatGeo as a little kid and it really instilled a taste for adventure, science, and exotic locales/cultures in me. I have never lost that interest and always thought running NatGeo would be a blast.If you are curious, have kids, or just love to look at beautiful pictures, I highly, highly recommend getting a subscription to National Geographic.


Now I know National Geographic is considered a “science lite” magazine meaning that while the articles are not going to be found in your average scientific journal The magazine does skirt issues relating to science, nature and the world in a way the average non-science-minded sort of person could easily understand. I really expected the children’s version of this magazine to do roughly the same, after all, I was given the promise that “NG Kids brings kids face-to-face with amazing animals, geographic adventures, incredible wonders of the deep, terrific technology and inspiring children all over the world.” If you dig far enough into the each issue, you’ll find some appropriate articles for your children. My son was fascinated with several articles including one on earthquakes, the debate about whether cats or dogs are smarter (and we learn that both are smart in their own ways) and what happens when people encroach into mountain lion habitat.Ask any person why they subscribe to National Geographic and the first word out of their mouth is usually, “The photos.” Since the magazine is so well known for their photos, you’d expect the children’s magazine to carry some of the more fun photos. The children’s version does have some of the cuter photos but, again, the colorful, splashy advertisements on the opposing page often detract from the photos themselves.
