The Month in Magazines: March

Hey there, sorry I have been quiet on the blogosphere.  I've decided I need to make up a set schedule of when I will post.  While I wish I could blog everyday, there just are not enough hours in the day.  So I suppose I need to be realistic!  Anyways, here is a list of the latest March cover girls from the top magazines.

InStyle went with Nicole Kidman, which I think is refreshing.  Kidman is gorgeous and isn't constantly in the press, so it's nice to see a new face.

The Month in Magazines: February

I always find the magazine game quite challenging.  Next month's issues are always released the month before, making it difficult to live your life according to the publications.  Am I the only one who finds this challenging?

Anyways... Here is the latest round of magazine covers.

InStyle went with SJP as their leading lady...

Magazine Covers by the Numbers

I recently read an article on Fashionista about the most successful covers printed in 2013.  The blog received their numbers from an Adweek article, here are the results:

Kim Kardashian's cover in April Cosmopolitan was the number one selling issue of the mag.

Getting Organized

Today was a major cleaning day.  I spent the entire day cleaning out two bookcases, a closet and the desk all in my study.  I started with three large trashbags, a handheld Swiffer, a long handled Swiffer, and a vacuum.  As of 7:00pm, I filled two of the bags and dusted and vacuumed the whole room.  I feel that the room is 85% clean.  I needed to sort through a lot of - for lack of a better word- STUFF left over from high school, middle school, and the STUFF that was left a mess from packing up for college.  My study has always been my home and my happy place - as it hold my nail polish collection - but from the clutter, it was not welcoming in any sense.  So I am trying to get back on track.

One of the obstacles I am looking to overcome is my overwhelming collection of magazines.  I guess you could say I'm a hoarder... I have issues of Seventeen that date back to 2008 and there are a few issues of CosmoGirl, which isn't even in print anymore... I also have a high number of InStyle issues and a few Glamour scattered.  But that doesn't even include the magazines I buy, as oppose to subscribe to... Collector or hoarder, you can decide.
