SHE GOT STYLE

i have some fabulous news, and i thought i would share!

Within my degree, i have many guest lectures that are a variety of well known publishers, editors and designers that come into give an insight to the publishing world. Recently, to my delight, the darling Lisa Smosarski, editor of STYLIST magazine came in to class and had a chat. Lisa revealed the secrets behind launching a new magazine in the market, a magazine that stands apart from your Grazia's and Look's; as well as a publishing a magazine that soley only receives revenue from advertising because it's given away for free? Did you know, that however successful STYLIST is, fashion house Chanel will never advertise within the magazine because it's given away free? To be that fabulous aye!

So after the lecture, i had a quick chat with Lisa, to which she presented moi with her business card.. so to which leads me to my good news...

i have a placement at STYLIST for a whole month in August!

seriously, i cannot word how excited i truly am! i cannot wait to get stuck in, with the added promise of writing content for the September and October issues. If you haven't heard of STYLIST magazine, where have you been hiding? well chances are probably not in the city! Stylist magazine is a free, women's fashion weekly, handed out in cities such as London, Manchester ect ect.

Stylist, amazingly entered the women's magazine market with a fresh take on fashion and style, with a mix of news, top picks and fashion spreads. The design and style of the magazine is effortlessly chic and stylish. Choosing beautiful yet striking cover images, whether that a Mulberry bag or Angelina Jolie, it was sure to pull a great interest of the women of London, instead of the usual paparazzi shot of any B-List celeb. The magazine also offers well written features, boasting news, travel, events, fashion, beauty, art, film, food with interesting interviews. Seriously, could it get any better, a free magazine offering women everything they want/need to know, perfect.
