I genuinly cannot understand why anyone with half a brain would opt to buy this rubbish magazine! I wouldnt class it as a magazine - a picture book would be more apt - and I certainly wouldnt pay for it!

For anyone who has browsed through a copy of Elle, you'll no doubt have noticed that on average there is at least 3 to 4 full pages of designer advertisements for every one containing anything readable. And when you do eventually find a page containing a so called article, you'll be faced with at least half the page taken up with a picture!

The magazine not only had crap content, but it is bulky beyond believe! The copy I had, had over 300 pages, about 2 1/3's advertising!

The fashion and items shown are also a joke! Most of the stuff would be aimed towards the very well off and totally unaffordable for the average person!

I find it rather insulting actually that this company charge about 3 pounds for the privilege! They obviously rake it in through advertiser's fees! What a complete rip off!
