WWD reports that teen magazine CosmoGirl is closing with the December issue being the last.

The article says, “
The subscriber base will be folded into fellow Hearst title Seventeen.” Are magazines done for? Unofficial poll: how many of you still subscribe to magazines? If so, which ones?
I honestly had to cancel my subscription to Vogue..too heavy, too much stuff, too out of touch (with their
'Is Fashion Racist' nonsense)...what do you still subscribe to?
I LOVE magazines! I currently subscribe to Lucky, InStyle, Domino, and Glamour. I will not renew my Lucky and Domino subscriptions but will replace them with Eboni/Essence, Black Enterprise, and Shape.
ReplyDeleteI subscribe to InStyle and Lucky because they always offer great high/low options. I agree, Vogue is too out of touch and lacks real substance so I stopped getting it years ago. I also subscribe to Domino and Elle Decor for inspiration purposes.
ReplyDeleteI currently subscribe to ESSENCE, Ebony, Black Enterprise, Jet, Glamour, Allure, Self, Fitness, and I have online subscriptions to Saveur and Caribbean Travel and Life, and I buy many, as well.
ReplyDeleteI have a subscription to Harper's Bazaar, because it was free. I did renew on Amazon a few weeks ago because it was about $5 for the year. I constantly buy People Style Watch at the store. The prices are much better than Bazaar, more for the regular woman. In my teen days, I subscribed to Teen People when they actually had articles in them.
ReplyDeleteI just paid for a subscription to Inc and Fast Company last night. I'm a heavy magazine subscriber but I do Harper's Bazaar rather than Vogue. I always wanted a Vogue subscription, but the magazine doesn't really prove any good reading. And the fashion that it represents gets more unrealistic as the day goes by. I guess it'll be the Bazaar for me. :D
ReplyDeletepeople style watch
ReplyDeletemagazines are still relevant for me and i hope that my favorite ones survive.
ReplyDeletei just subscribed to gq (for my man), elle, and essence last week. i plan to subsribe to black enterprise, w, and lucky this week.
and i buy various magazines at least 2 times a month.
I'm addicted to fashion. I subscribe to Lucky, Elle and Elle Decor. I will subscribe to People Style Watch this week. Glad to hear other people like the magazine as well. During the fall, I end up buying all of the fashion mags to make sure I don't miss anything. I admit, Vogue is a big disappointment.
ReplyDeleteI love magazines. I subscribe to Marie Clair, Glamour, BE and through Maghound.com (netflix for magazines!!) I get EW, In Style & Atlanta.
ReplyDeleteClaire, enjoy your last week. Good luck in Paris. I'm planning a trip there in 2009, looking forward to getting the inside scoop from my fave blogger
ReplyDeleteI subscribe to Lucky, Vogue, Seventeen. I love magazines.
ReplyDeleteAnd I buy InStyle and Elle from time to time.
I subscribe to Lucky, Glamour and Self. I've just recently gotten rid of my subscriptions to Vibe and Essence, I didn't feel they spoke to me anymore. I wish Vibe Vixen was still in print, I loved that magazine.
ReplyDeleteI just subscribed to Glamour.Great articles,great fashion,political satire.What more could you ask for?
ReplyDeleteI love magazines. Between my sister and I we subscribe to most magazines. I currently subscribe to In Style, Ebony, Glamour, Teen Vouge. While my sister subscribes to Pinc, Essence, Lucky, Marie Claire, Black Enterprise, WWD, and Elle. I love fashion and my sister is in the Beauty industry.
ReplyDeleteI really love www.leaguemagazine.com
ReplyDeleteits free and its for urban women and I can appreciate that since there aren't many.
I like people style watch too
I subscribe to Complex and thats it.
ReplyDeleteI have paid subscriptions for Essence, Fitness, Cosmopolitan and i have subscriptions for TIME and Teen Vogue from a credit card rewards program.I don't how many of them I will renew when they expire though...
ReplyDeleteI get Lucky, Glamour, Marie Claire, Essence,InStyle and Inc. I've never really "GOT" vogue, just a bunch of ads and unrealistic fashion in my opinion.
ReplyDeleteIt's a little sad about CosmoGIRL. I remember buying the 1st issue and going to several of their parties when younger and I know this is Atoosa's baby!!!! Well guess there will be another magazine to take its place soon. However, I LOVE Lucky Mag !!!!
