I walked past the newsstand this morning on the way to the subway and I saw the September InStyle Magazine. *sigh* I wanted it so bad but I have a subscription so I have to wait. I also have a subscription to Bazaar, Allure and Marie Claire. The only September issue I've received is from Marie Claire...and I always like to buy the September Vogue from the newsstand...somehow it seems like that's the way it's suppose to be.
However, when I got to work today (after doing my civic duty and voting in the NJ Democratic Primaries), I whipped out my iPad and downloaded the new September Vogue and the September Bazaar. Seriously I just can't wait for the US Mail to get their act together and get them to my mailbox.
I'm so glad that I did though...because the interactives in the September Vogue are awesome! Anna actually narrates a piece that's included in the editor's letter. So if you haven't received your fave September fashion magazines and own an iPad or a Kindle - try downloading them! It's worth it!!
Tomorrow I pull the name of the first winner of "The Fabric Giveway"...so stay tuned!
...as always more later!
I am exactly the same way. I have subscriptions to Vogue, Elle, Marie Claire and Harper's Bazaar. I need to pick up In Style as I let my subscription expire. I love the September issues.....Note to self on the way home stop at the supermarket and pick it up! Looking forward to the drawing
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way about your posts. I check every day, sometimes more than once. Can you say obsessed?
ReplyDeleteWhich fashion mags/web sites/blogs are an absolute must for you when planning your seasonal sewing? I think I do not utilize those resources enough for inspiration, and wanted to know your opinion(if you care to share). THX
ReplyDeleteI don't buy a lot of magazines and that is probably bad on my part. I also wonder which mags/websites/blogs you use to help you with your planning.
ReplyDeleteI thought about you yesterday when I bought the only fall issue I could find at the grocery, "glamour". Went through it thinking what you would choose! Please do a series on new looks you like!
ReplyDeleteThanks for a reminder - I must stop on the way home for that luscious looking Vogue. What a beautiful cover!
ReplyDeleteAha... I Think I Will.Download It On My Kindle.. Thanks Fo the heads Up!
ReplyDeleteI got the Marie Clair magazine this past Saturday and have been planning to go to B&N to see if Vogue is in. Maybe I should try downloading Vogue, yet I am so use to holding it and turning the pages. Less clutter with iPad though. Hmmm!
ReplyDeleteI feel the same way about September Vogue. It arrives in my mailbox a good 3 weeks after it appears in New York newsstands. I nearly always break down and buy a newsstand copy.
ReplyDeletenew sewist question - well at least new to pattern sandwich
ReplyDeleteI'm an old sewist and want to try your pattern sandwich but I just can't find a blog in the archives. Would you please direct me to someor describe it again

I just received in the mail yesterday and unbelievable deal to a Vogue subscription!!
ReplyDeleteFirst time I will have ever subscribed! From your inspiration...I'm going to go for it!!
Thank-you so much!
Wishing you a good one!
Take care!!
I periodically subscribe to Vogue. I really only want September and March's editions. I ALWAYS subscribe to Marie Clare. I haven't gotten my September edition from them yet, though. I'm troubled since you got yours.... I agree, there is something ceremonial about buying your Sept/Mar Vogue from the store and holding it with love like a newborn in your arms..... I know where I'm going for lunch!
ReplyDeleteI decided to not to buy the Vogue this year & download it instead. But I'm too excited to open it! lol
ReplyDeleteI received my Fall Fashions edition of W this week. It's as big as the old Sears catalogs. Weighs a ton! Can't wait to sit down and go through it page by page. Even though I live in the sunny south, we still have subtle seasonal changes. I love to change my wardrobe just like I did when I was living 'up north'.
ReplyDeleteI'm trying to curb my magazine buying...but that new InStyle is so massive and glossy!! I probably won't be able to hold out, lol
