Shades 5th Avenue by Redken (magazine ad)
Again, there is a blonde with wonderful luscious hair and a pert little pouty mouth, and blue eyes. I wish that advertisers would get a bit more creative than just sticking a blonde on a magazine page and thinking that the world will buy their products because she’s “beautiful.” …
Aperture Magazine
This magazine, which started since 1950s, is a hit between both my parents, and still are till now. I guess the idea has creeped into me, and as an aspiring photographer for hobby, I certainly learn quite a lot of things just by looking at this magazine.
Now, be …

Charmed By Tiffany (magazine ad)

Kipling bags by Fergie (magazine ad)
I am not really a Fergie fan. Personally, I feel that when she joined the Black Eyed Peas, they lost a little of their authenticity. The band suddenly became all about Fergie because she was the new snow princess to take the rest of the group to …

Nick Jr. Magazine
We didn’t subscribe to Nick Jr. Magazine but our daughter got a year’s subscription from a family friend for her birthday. And, after her getting a few issues of it, I have to say it’s pretty good.

OK! Magazine
I always used to be an avid reader of OK! Magazine and i would rush to the shops to get it the day it came out. This however, has changed a few months back when i realised that it was a rip off-simple as that.
They have a few “celebrities” …
102.3 KJLH
I am a huge fan of R&B, Hip Hop, and Old School Music. Living in Los Angeles, I have found the perfect radio station that best suits my needs and that is 102.3 KJLH. With KJLH, they value the community much more than other radio stations. They care about …

I read Femina fairly regularly. I must say that this women’s magazine packs in a lot for we women. Right from designer wear, pefumes, women’s issues, beauty tips, household handy hints, recipes and the works - you name a major women’s issue and in all probability you’ll find it …
Dodge Journey (magazine ad)
Now this is a really inventive ad. For the Dodge Journey, a creative team has come up with the idea to recreate the household floor plan and place it inside the vehicle. I believe this is really a crossover SUV instead of a minivan. …
TV Times magazine
As its name rather suggests, the British publication TV Times is a TV listings magazine, and in fact it is one of the longest standing of all, having been launched right back in 1955, at the very dawn of commercial television in the United Kingdom. Since the deregulation of …
BBC World News (radio)
My family and I listen to the “British Broadcasting Corporation” or BBC a lot, and one of the things which I like about it is the BBC World News. Over the years that I have been listening to it, I have realised that both the one that is aired …
Kohl’s Vera Wang clothing line (magazine ad)
First of all, I had no idea that Vera Wang even had a clothing line at Kohl’s. But from the look of the ad, I wished that there was a Kohl’s nearby. In the ad several young women are draped across what looks like …
Canadian Living magazine
These magazines, Canadian Living, always look so appealing, so last year, I got a one year subscription. While I do occasionally enjoy the magazine, to be honest, I don’t think it was worth it to get a subscription. Part of my reason for feeling this is that you end …
Citi Never Sleeps (Citibank credit card commercial)

Never have I heard of a product that corrects hair color mistakes. But with all the horror stories I have heard of people messing their hair up with dyes and rinses, I would imagine that this would be a very helpful product. A model is shown …
I.N.C. Clothing (magazine ad)
Macy’s has a new line of clothing called I.N.C. The ad is a bit confusing though, because the name Rianne is used in the advertisement. There are few other words. So at first I thought the clothing line was called Rianne. …
TMZ staff
These people at TMZ just do nothing for me. They have a website, and they have a 30 minute syndicated TV show. What a complete waste. Worse, that our society supports it is just sad.
While I love the opportunity to see what my favorites are doing, …
Vanity Fair Magazine
One of the hobbies I refuse to give up, despite the present economy, is reading. There are few things as personally enjoyable to me as being able to relax with a cup of hot tea and a good magazine. So, since going out to movies and restaurants isn’t as …

Woman’s Day is one of many ‘women’s magazines’ that has been around for a long, long time. It’s full of recipes, diet suggestions, and ways to live healthier. It’s a publication that sometimes I enjoy and sometimes find very easy to just flip through the pages. The …
Radio Program at DZMM
I woke up this morning at the sound of my mom’s radio playing in the background. There were laughs and discussions that seemed nothing serious. Well I never really liked to listen as to what she is up to with the radio, but today was different because she was …

Money Sense was born out of the need to address the growing …

Collagen Elasten by St. Ives body wash (magazine ad)
A woman is seated naked in what looks like a field. She is looking off into the distance with a really satisfied expression on her face. Her skin looks dewy and refreshed. I am also under the impression that she has been freshly showered with …
College Lifestyle Magazine
It was only until I got a free copy of this magazine at a career expo at a local university did I know that this magazine existed. In fact, I had only remembered hearing of a show on a local television channel with a similar name that covered the …
Life Takes Visa (magazine ad)
I have seen the television commercials where the Life Takes Visa slogan is punctuated by all sorts of gregarious activities. It makes people want the freedom that a credit card sometimes feel like it’s providing. In this magazine advertisement, a guitar with five necks and five sets …
BLENDER magazine
BLENDER magazine is nonstop fun fun fun. I have a lot on my mind and do a lot of heavy intellectual reading — because I like to, frankly — and this magazine is always a great vacation from worry and deep thought. For example, every month they feature …
