Still Read Magazines?

20 Jan

Magazines

As a blogger and gal working full-time in the digital world, I find it a bit ironic that I’m single-handedly keeping the postal system in business. I subscribe to 6 (yes 6!) women’s magazines. Helloooo snail mail! 

With the emergence of so many awesome style blogs (ahem), I’m curious if Style Me Thrifty readers still pick up style tips from printed publications.

I clearly do. In fact, over the holidays, I either received or gifted myself a subscription to Lucky, Glamour, and Real Simple. And I’m already a reader of Vogue, Cosmo, and People… albeit a little embarrassed to admit 2 of those! Sure, I love surfing the web and getting inspiration from fellow bloggers, but I also love laying on the couch with a glossy mag on my lap. Dogearing pages is so satisfying. Plus, magazines offer amazing deals for 1- or 2-year subscriptions, so I also feel pretty thrifty! $1 an issue? Yes, please.

So I’m wondering… am I alone here? Do you still read any fashion mags? If so, which ones? OR do you consider them a thing of the past? (a la acid wash jeans?).
