This is actually a great issue! It never looks like it based on what's been posted on here, but Elle US succeeds month after month with well written and insightful articles. The issue is put together really niclely, despite the flood of Maybelline and Tommy Hillfiger ads, all showing Gigi in her open mouthed glory.
The letter page this month features quite an interesting critique on a 'body-acceptance' article published in a previous issue (which I missed). Sidenote: Elle US hardly ever publish negative feedback, it's always fawning and short Tweets and FB posts But what surprised me most was the author's inarticulate response to the reader, basically glossing over the criticism dished out. So odd. Don't think I'd be inclined to read any of her future articles.
