Look Magazine

This is a fairly new magazine, having only came out a few years ago. LOOK is a fashion and celebrity magazine, which comes out weekly, whereas most other fashion mags are monthly. I used to buy the magazine when it first came out, but stopped because my magazine buying habit in general was becoming expensive, and because I felt that the magazine was often quite thin, and filled with lots of pictures and not much reading material. I recently went into Boots to pick up a few magazines and found their selection that day wasn't brilliant, and LOOK was one of the only ones that appealed to me. I noticed that since I last bought it, the magazine seems to be thicker and have a ...  Read the complete review

OK, so I didn't have to pay for this, and I am very pleased I did not. I did however, get caught up on a train and have nothing else to read. So I decided to open what was actually a 'goodie bag' and take a flick through what appeared to be, yet another celebrity magazine. I was not surprised or taken a back by the articles, not that they were not our of order or hypocritical or stereotypical- they were. But because, just like all the other magazines in the same category: Heat, Now, Star... they all have the same pictures and the same stories. My best laugh though, was finding this same magazine on a coffee table in a doctors waiting room, I again, ...  Read the complete review

~Also On Ciao Under Same Name!~ Hey everyone, and welcome to my Look review. Ciao failed to save my draft of it so I am starting from scratch, which I am not too happy about, but here goes... **Basic Information** Look is a weekly magazine aimed at women, and contains a mixture of celebrities, fashion and real life. It costs £1.50 per issue and a new issue comes out every Tuesday. It can be found at many supermarkets, newsagents and the usual stockists of magazines (Boots, WHSmith etc...) **First Impressions** 'You shouldn't judge a book by its cover' is a phrase which I try to abide to, but when I'm looking to treat myself to a ...  Read the complete review

Look Magazine is a female-targeted weekly fashion magazine, which incorporates the usual smattering of B-list celebrity gossip, disenchanting 'real-life' stories where serious issues such as teenage motherhood, rape or familial bereavement are treated with far less delicacy than they deserve, life coaching articles which promise you future riches, job satisfaction, relationship bliss or even just generic happiness, and of course, a vast array of slightly less-than-haute fashion. Look seems different from many of the other weekly women's mags, as it does seem to keep a stronger focus upon fashion and trends, and bargains to be had. I have to say, this is why ...  Read the complete review

I am a bit of a magazine addict...and I know "they" say that beauty magazines do nothing for you self esteem but I cannot help it, I need my fashion fix! When picking a magazine off of those crowded glossy magazine shelves I look for one with plenty of clothes/shoes/accessories; a good beauty section; and some real life stories to keep me amused on the train! I am happy to say that look ticks all the right boxes! Firstly it has tons of fashion ideas. The first pages always include what is brand spanking new and what is popular. For example some cute shoes which have been spotted on a celebrity, or some little bracelets which are a bargain, it also ...  Read the complete review
