Do you buy a fashion magazine?

[helena22]

In this day and age, some people might look at you funny when you buy a fashion magazine.
They might say, "Why do you waste your money? Soon as you get online, you can find countless fashion blogs and really great ones by these power bloggers."

Even if you're not studying fashion as a major or working in the field, I'm sure some of yall sometimes buy or even subscribe to one.


(1) Your favorite(s)?

(2) What do you get from your fashion mag?

(3) In what ways do you think they promote the idea that "fashion=lifestyle"?
(of course, if you believe that they do)

No, I don't actually....

But, you guessed it, I am into fashion blogs

Here are two of my favourites:

I prefer individualized fashion blogs because I feel the style is always more personally influenced than the styles in mainstream fashion magazines

I am really not all that in to fashion magazines. I never really have been. I am subscriber to 2 magazines I get every month. Which is Astronomy and National Geographic. I mostly prefer magazines that is about science, astronomy, nature, geography, animals, history, and world cultures.
