Marie Claire Magazine
I have been reading Marie Claire Magazine since its debut issue. I was in the 10th grade, that makes the timeframe around 1995 when I was 16 years old. Even as a young girl I could recognize a great magazine. I have been reading it through …
DNA Daily News & Analysis
Times of India Newspaper famously known as TOI had a near monopoly run in Mumbai. No Newspaper could break its hold on Mumbai. It remained so, until DNA (Daily News & Analysis) arrived in picture three years back. Though Times of India still remains as the number one …
Cover Girl Queen Collection Lipsticks (magazine ad)
There is no better spokeswoman than Queen Latifah—to market the Queen Collection lipsticks. I imagine that this line of cosmetics was renamed specifically with this woman in mind. She is a great spokesmodel because she doesn’t exactly fit the traditional mold of someone who models for …
Loreal Infallible Lip Colour (magazine ad)
Beyonce is the spokesperson behind this specific product. The lipstick is actually not really a lipstick at all, but rather a lip color compact. The advertisement indicates that this lip color will not flake off or wear off easily. From the picture, I …
Preview Magazine
Heidi Klum once said that in fashion, ” one day you’re in, the next day you are out”. What she meant was this fashion industry is very competitive that it is progressing everyday. We need a fashion bible to keep us posted with the latest style. There are Vogue, …
Delicious perfume by DKNY (magazine ad)
The apple is one of the most luscious, most fragrant fruits of all time. Yet it is very rarely used in perfume imagery or in fragrance. I like that fact that DKNY has chosen this particular fruit to market their perfume named Delicious. Named after …
12 Noon Workout on 106.1 Philadelphia Pa
My office always has our radio station tuned to 106.1 in Philadelphia, Pa. Usually I tune out whatever is playing and concentrate on the phone calls I am making for work. Today I was work on some paperwork between noon and 12:30 and heard the “12 Noon Workout” on …
The Sunday Times Style Magazine
Style Magazine is one of the color supplements with the Sunday Times newspaper and I always enjoy a look at it as I think for a free supplement it is packed with lots of stuff. This magazine covers style not only in terms of women’s fashion but also …
Texas Roadhouse in East Madison, WI
For anyone, this is my favorite cheap steak restaurant. There is just something about the way they cook their beef, because it seems to be perfect all the time. The meat is also so perfectly seasoned, while being so tender. I love the perfected blend of different seasonings which …
HyattPlace.com (magazine ad)
I don’t stay in hotels too very often. But this commercial for Hyatt hotels is a very convincing way to get people to think again about staying there. In any case, a woman is shown sitting on a huge sectional sofa. Her feet are …
Breitling watches (magazine ad)
This is a prime example of companies milking the popularity of Hollywood celebrities. For this ad, John Travolta was chosen. The people behind the ad were probably sitting around the table discussing how to approach the commercial. And they said: “Hmmm what did John Travolta …
Euphoria perfume (Calvin Klein fragrance ad)
Facing you is a young woman, about 18 - 22 years in age. You can never tell because models these days are so young, and made to look so mature, that you could actually be looking at a 14 year old girl and would never know. …
Entertainment Weekly
My favorite news magazine is Entertainment Weekly. I understand this is not a source for news going around the world, but news of the multi-media venture. I don’t mind. I am tired of turning on my tv, seeing items that do affect me, but depress me. …

Kohl’s Clothing Love Revolution (TV commercial)

OK! Magazine (celebrity tabloid magazine)
Of all the tabloid rags on the shelves in grocery stores, it seems that OK! Magazine is one of the most reputable ones. Stories have broken in OK! Magazine that haven’t even captured speculation from other publications, like Life & Style, and Us magazines. A more …
Horse Illustrated Magazine
Horse Illustrated Magazine is a publication for all riders. Horse Illustrated covers all disciplines and arrives in my mailbox every month. Unlike other riding magazines, Horse Illustrated focuses more on the pleasure rider. I think Horse Illustrated is focused upon pleasure riders and trail enthusiasts more than performance horses …
Article: “Put A Little Science In Your Life” by Brian Greene
“Put A Little Science In Your Life” by Brian Greene is an op-ed piece about how important science is, yet, no one really understands it or uses it in their lives.
First, the article begins with a reference to a letter Brian received from a soldier in Iraq. Instead of …

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 …
Speed-TV Coverage of Formula 1 Racing
In America, Formula 1 racing isn’t as popular as NASCAR. While there certainly are a number of fans, it’s not enough to warrant a huge international traveling expense for analysts and crew. Thus, Speed-TV’s coverage is hampered dramatically.
For example, Speed-TV uses a camera feed supplied by the …
Mirror Moms Magazine
With the rain pouring outside and two kids inside complaining about being bored and having nothing to do, I scooped up my car keys and said “Lets go”. I had no clue where I was going to go, but I knew I wanted out of the house and the …

I think it is important for new business owners to know what type of licenses and permits they …
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 …
Yaz Birth Control pills (magazine ad)
I have realized with this ad that birth control is not just birth control anymore. In fact, this ad actually reveals that this pill controls bloating, irritability, headaches, muscle aches, acne, and even moodiness. I have no idea what kind of miracle drug this includes that it …
Pandora Radio (www.pandora.com)
Pandora is an online personalized radio station. You can play your station on any computer using login information. There is nothing to download.
How it works:
Pandora is very simple to use. It’s not like a play list because you get a variety of music, not just what you pick, but …
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” …
IMAN luxury eye shadow (magazine ad)
Again Target has done it again with a wonderful ad. I had no idea that they even sold IMAN products. I shouldn’t be surprised since they sell all sorts of wonderful items for women of color. But in this ad, the eye shadow …

Before, FHM and Cosmopolitan lord it over the shelves of every bookstores and magazine stands. Now, they still do but there is also a magazine that is creating a niche for itself and that is Money Sense.
