I had almost given up on women's magazines altogether until I stumbled across an issue of Self. Now I don't miss an issue. I love seeing the 'models' showing off clothes that I would actually wear! Forget high fashion that only looks good on the super-skinny and is only appropriate for the runway! I want to see styles that work for my everyday life, yet still have flair to them and are in no way boring! The exercises are doable and the illustrations make them easy to follow! Now I feel trendy, yet real because I can be mySELF!
