Red Magazine

It's always such a treat to snuggle up with a magazine and a bar of chocolate. During my early twenties however i lost this luxury as the magazines were all too young, too 'celebrity' focused or too much home and garden. Then i discovered Red, which was actually first donated to me by my Nan's friend - she's 84! This is a fab magazine. Unlike others, it is not just stuffed full of adverts or pictures - there is a great deal to read on a range of diverse topics - the articles come under the following headings: Red shops, fashion, features, beauty, living, escapes, health, offers and 'in every issue'. The shops and fashions are affordable and offer ...  Read the complete review

I have always been a bit of a magazine addict - at the peak of my obsession, in my mid-20s I was spending a silly amount of money on magazines, reading a couple of women's glossies each month, at least one weekly celebrity gossip title and every wedding magazine I could get my hands on... at least once I was safely married I couldn't justify buying any more wedding magazines, although it didn't stop me lusting over all the pictures of beautiful dresses and expensive flowers.

I was given a subscription to Red magazine as a Christmas present, so have been reading it regularly now for several months, and whilst I had never come across it before, I am very impressed.

The magazine has a celebrity interview every month, in the current issue it is with Louise and Jamie Redknap, but recently has included women such as Sophie Dahl and Uma Thurman. Each issue will also include ...  Read the complete review

I have been reading Red magazine since March when it was recommended to me by a friend. She is a bit older than me and already married with children, where as I am not. I thought it would be a bit out of my age range, but I bought it anyway and really enjoyed it. I couldn't put it down. Each month there is a celebrity interview, and this is not like the normal celeb interview you find, but it is conducted in a relaxed environment and the write up is about 2 or three pages long. They have resident writers each moth writing about topics that many women can relate to. One writer is Rosie Green, who always refers to her partner as 'Alpha Male'. I ...  Read the complete review

I have subscribed to this monthly womens magazine for almost as long as it been going. I think it's one of the best magazines around. It is fantastic value for money. The articles are useful informative and relevant. THere is a good shopping guides, and tips. pages about travel, recipes, going green, decorating and looking after the house. It has some really refreshing ideas each month to inspire you. It isn't full of stupid articles about relationships etc, and no crappy problem pages or crap about whose wearing what etc Being a subscriber you can get discounts of some things, and they have a great range of their own products in a ...  Read the complete review
