The Official Teen Magazine Thread

[peacelover142002]

I think the teen magazines don't get enough play on this forum, so i started this thread for those who love them. We can post covers, eds, and reviews.

Here's a list of who's on the covers in March:

Seventeen: Ashlee Simpson
CosmoGirl: Alicia Keys
ElleGirl: Nicole Richie
Teen Vogue: Camilla Belle
Teen People: Kristin Callavari (from Laguna Beach)

To start, here's Ashlee's pics from Seventeen (not all of them appeared in the mag). I'll post a review tomorrow.

Thanks for posting.

I always buy ellegirl. I like it somehow. Maybe it's thes styling in the editorials.

I used to buy ElleGirl all the time- now I buy Teen Vogue instead because the clothes and eds are a lot more appealing to me.

[Avant Garde]

I can't say I liked teen people or seventeen much.

Teen people was alright is you were absolutely obsessed with teen celebrities, but the fashion was average

Seventeen had good beauty tips, but again, the fashion is always typical teen

the website is still updated occasionally for some reason, but the magazine is no more. conde nast bought it and discontinued it, sending teen vogue to subscribers in its place.


^thanks for the teen vogue scans. they make camilla look quite young, didn't they?

No problem. Also yes most of the photos do make Camilla look around 13-14 as oppose to her age of 19.

overall: don't even bother. seventeen has really gone downhill since atoosa took over, which i find puzzling since she did such a good job with cosmogirl. it's all (bad) fashion, celebrities, and idiotic, boring, real-life stories, and none of the great, interesting, important articles it used to have. i'm thinking about cancelling my subscription.
