Sister Magazine

Sister Magazine, Issue No. 7 is out! It’s the Italian issue and the pictures of Florence are heart-wrenchingly lovely — they make me think of A Room With a View. Besides the lovely travel, fashion, and food photography, the layouts caught my attention. I’m especially fond of the forms and draftsman-like labels used on many [...]

Magnificent: Frame

Frame Magazine, Issue #89 I discovered Frame by accident. I don’t usually hang out in the interior design section of Green Apple, but this magazine caught my eye because of the reversed ‘E’. When I picked up a copy I noticed the cloth binding on the spine of the magazine…a touch that gave me a [...]

The Gentlewoman, Autumn/Winter 2012 As I was sorting through my magazines, preparing for my future, I came across my first issue of The Gentlewoman, which I bought after reading about it on Miss Moss.

Magnificent: Lula No. 15

Lula Magazine No. 15 I got issue #15 of Lula last week and I’m really loving it. It’s 300 pages of goodness, with only 25 pages of ads. It’s a little pricey, but it’s totally worth it for the 100′s of pages of great photos, typography, and inspiring layouts. I even managed to read two [...]

Style: Monki Mag Page Layout in CSS

A clip from Monki’s Table of Contents (Issue No. 8) / Art by Minni Havas My Monki fixation has intertwined with my abiding love for boxes and borders. One of the most eye-catching features of Monki Magazine is their use of borders to frame photos, especially their use of rotated frames to grab our attention [...]

Magnificent: Monki

I first heard about Monki from Adeline — she was featured in their online magazine at this time last year. When I was at Barnes and Noble last week, I saw Monki Magazine and I immediately thought of Adeline and how much she loves their clothes. So I checked it out and loved everything I [...]

Magnificent: Lula No. 14

(Lula Magazine No. 14) I really hate to miss an issue of Lula and when I saw it for sale at ModCloth, I bought a copy instantly. Of course, after I bought it online, I found the same issue for sale at Green Apple Books. I prefer to buy locally, but oh well. Lula is [...]

iPhoneographie

(Nylon Japan, Nylon US June/July 2012) The irony of having a fashion magazine obsession is that I don’t really buy clothes, and when I do shop, it’s usually at The Gap or Old Navy. In fact, my look these days seems to revolve around my Essential Jeans from The Gap, my ’80s band t-shirts, and [...]

Fortunately, this issue of Foam caught my eye. FAB cover and a FAB issue, with beautiful photography, gorgeous [...]
