Say it isn't so! The magazine industry (as we know it) is suffering more so now than ever before. Ad sales are down and staffs are being cut at a dizzying rate. I have, and always will be (*i hope*) a magazine junkie. So tell me, what's YOUR favorite magazine? Which glossies do you consistently pick up at newsstands at the airport?

Lucky Magazine

Widget_bpx7ejdtrmfatgat3x1gil

Lucky has gone where no magazine has gone before! Entirely focused on SHOPPING, this mag inspires me more than any other one out there. Here’s to you, Kim France!

So Many Mags, So Little Time.

Does your coffee table look like this every month? Mine does.

inTouch Weekly

Because even pseudo-intellectual pretentious snobs need celebrity gossip. And inTouch is the cheapest gossip rag around (besides the internet).

ALLURE

Domino Magazine

In my opinion, the BEST shelter magazine out there, with hip, stylish interiors to drool over…is tragically FOLDING as of today. :(

Cook's Illustrated

I read about a billion magazines, but Cook’s Illustrated will always be my favorite. The BEST recipes, no advertisements, and an awesome concept. Plus, I’ve met Chris Kimball, the editor and man in charge, several times and he’s amazing.

Esquire

The anti-Maxim.

Glamour Magazine

Widget_cf-ckvpu1f-4ny_oookmri

Glamour is rich in content, and not just the fluffy stuff. This glossy delivers plenty of the normal fashion and beauty buzz, but also packs in more serious matters that enrich and stimulate today’s modern girl-on-the go.

InStyle Magazine

Widget_cm0a42gjbi7zksqt8vbyrz

Okay, so I’m a tiny bit biased since I was an editor for InStyle for a few years, but I’ve been a major fan ever since its initial launch. Celebrity style and amazing finds were never so accessible.

BUST Magazine

Widget_df9f99qv1ha4to91v6826j

I happen to have a serious SOFT spot for Bust because, I INTERNED THERE!! yahoooo!!

As a matter of fact, this particular issue- I was responsible for covering Amy Sedaris’ breasts with shaving cream. That’s right.

NYLON

Widget_c9cddtpcdd_rhinwmxqnko

A little hipster but not so much that it’s annoying…I mean Nicole Richie is on the cover.

Harper's

Widget_avfkvt6-bjw5vc2chtqrjg

Because I like my magazines with lots of words. Also I am a pseudo-intellectual pretentious snob.

But seriously, there is some really good writing in here.

Juxtapoz

Widget_a3eoshxnvdwie9l7uwdme_

I guess I’m just masochistic enough to wanna find out about amazing art shows that are no where near Seattle and that I will never be able to get to.

Maxim

This guide needs to manned up. Man-boyed up that is…

Wired

I’m a huge nerd.

PASTE MAGAZINE

Widget_dp4ryvkwjhlqww_bkqyocj

It’s all indie and hipsteresque…I feel cool just reading it :)

Saveur

Widget_bo__7ktofc479szlw-y1sr

Bust and Saveur and Craft are all tied for my favorites, to be honest. Saveur combines food, travel and storytelling. Storytelling through food. I love that! It’s not all hoity-toity like Bon Appetit or Gourmet.
