I’ve always been an avid reader of the best teen magazine in the Philippines, Candy. I’ve started collecting it when I was just 11 years old and until now, I always feel excited to buy the next issues of Candy. Every cent is just worth it for a magazine …
Island Capri by Michael Kors (magazine ad)
Island Capri is a great name for a breezy looking fragrance. I have never smelled this stuff. But again, Michael Kors is a really great brand - a really great designer. If his perfume is anything like the clothing, then the wearer of this perfume will …
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 …

Smart Parenting Magazine

O: The Oprah Magazine
Oprah’s success as a talk-show host gave rise to the birth of O The Oprah Magazine. I love this magazine. It is the printed version of the TV talk show which I find so informative. I like that they keep it real here, discussing about real-life issues and using …
National ENQUIRER magazine
This is one magazine that I buy even though I do know you can’t always believe every thing you read. Sometimes, they do have the “real” scoop and it makes some of these celebrities very mad.
This magazine has had a lot of law suits against it but continue to …
Magazine Cook’s Illustrated
Cook’s Illustrated is a cooking magazine I just discovered and I’m sad to say it took me so long to find such an amazing cooking magazine. Even though it just appeared on my radar, Cook’s Illustrated has been in print since September 1992.
One of the great things about Cook’s …

You know what? I have never in my life had caviar. And I know that caviar (fish eggs) are quite the expensive delicacy. But I can’t imagine how they will ever be so luxurious to me that I invite myself to taste them. In …
Photoshop User magazine
I am an avid digital photographer, and I rely on Photoshop to make my pictures better than what I took. I do a lot of internet research on Photoshop, but I suppose I am old-school and rely more on the printed word than the web. I found this rather …
CaressBrazilian.com (magazine ad)
Nicole Scherzinger is the face on this ad. But I don’t think she’s actually Brazilian. Just because she has long dark hair and a fresh face, she is the new face for this product. The ad itself looks really really cheesy. And the palm …

IMAN luxury eye shadow (magazine ad)

Maxim Bungalows (magazine ad)

Texas Roadhouse in East Madison, WI

Real Simple Magazine
I usually don’t like lifestyle magazines because they’re all over the place. Real Simple has all the same information as those other magazines, and yet it’s very different.
I think it’s because all the information in this magazine is put together in such a simple, paired down to its essentials …
