What Magazines Have You Bought/Received Recently?

French Elle (loved the cover too much to let it stay in that shoppy shop)
and french HB (bargain subscription, only one dubious-and-plain issue so far)
Will have some fun today.
 
Vogue Italia and Vogue UK, May 2008 and November 1999 respectively
Loved that Vogue Italia issue, was kind of sceptical at first look but once I opened it, was pure delight. Meisel/Franca at their finest (and fiercest) and those were the days you could get some international mags in my small-town world.
 
^yes, and it was a surprisingly very strong cover editorial too despite Eva Mendes not being positioned as a 'fashion girl' among actresses at the time.
 
Got these precious Vogue Italia issues in the mail today. Over the moon as I write this.

So, I am currently in the process of rebuilding my entire fashion magazine collection since majority of my collection for the past 18 years or so has been wiped out by termites. Such a painful experience. That is what prompted me to restart collecting fashion magazines again. And my current agenda is all Vogue Italia issues from the 2000s starting with these 8.

Vogue Italia July 2004
Vogue Italia August 2004
Vogue Italia April 2005
Vogue Italia September 2006
Vogue Italia February 2007
Vogue Italia March 2007
Vogue Italia March 2008
Vogue Italia October 2008

iconic
 
@cottonmouth13 I am so sorry about the termites getting to your magazines! I know that pain myself, but it was only two issues that got eaten, losing the entire lot would probably make me cry. But those are some iconic issues to rebuild with, later 2000s Vogue Italia was unrivalled <3
