// My New Favourite Magazine: Nylon //

I've read this magazine a few times before and it is quickly becoming one of my favourite magazines. Nylon is an American magazine that has lots of amazing articles about fashion, beauty, music, film, art and celebrities.


First impressions of the magazine
It caught my eye as it looked more interesting and unique than the other magazines on the shelves. It has a very iconic, alternative look.

Fashion
The fashion in Nylon is quite simple and classic, but unique. The shoots are very atmospheric and inspirational. They are not just about the clothes, they tell a story and you could imagine yourself there. That is something I love about fashion shoots. In the august 2014 issue, there is a fashion story called 'After School Special' which is my personal favourite. It features a lot of tartan, denim jackets, cute pastel dresses and jumpers.

Beauty 


I love the beauty section of Nylon. It features very colourful and creative layouts such as this one, 'Light Bright' Their beauty articles articles are also more than just simple everyday makeup. The pictures in a story from their august 2014 issue, 'Brave New World' is all about is all about crazy, brave makeup trends that most people would be afraid to try. The picture 'Curious Bloom' is my favourite, with the beautiful shade of bright pink blush.


Music
Nylon covers a variety of music including indie, hip-hop, surf-pop, dance and folk. I love that there are so many different genres written about, people can read about the singers they already know about and be introduced to some new music along the way. I have noticed that there is focus on female musicians, with musicians such as Lana Del Rey and HAIM being on the cover.

  1. I always loved the fact that their pages are slightly larger than the average magazine pages. I really like Nylon as well.
