My love for VOGUE

As I was drinking a cup of tea and having a browse through my current issue of Vogue I suddenly realised that I had quite the collection. (I’m using my extra hours in the afternoon throughout Ramadan to catch up on some reading) 😉
When I was about 14 I started investing my pocket money in Vogue, I’d buy the odd issue and browse over it again and again. Fast forward through Art College and 3 years at university studying fashion promotion and I’m proud to say I have a pretty hefty collection of fashion magazines. For some odd reason I rarely read the articles but I see the pictures as little pieces of history. I have a true love for fashion; I appreciate every element that goes into making that one magical photo. The photographer, the stylist, the art director, the model.. etc. etc. How one wears an outfit in a picture and how we would wear the same outfit in day to day life is always going to a little different, that’s how we make it our own right?  Gosh I could go on for hours but I won’t, this is a wedding blog after all 😉 But before I sign off I’d like to take a moment to thank Vogue, and also Harper’s Bazaar, POP, i-D and all of the other fashion magazines I’ve collected over the years. Without being inspired by the creative one can only go so far… Vogue – thank you.
 


so I’m wondering, does anyone else have a huge collection of vogue, or bridal magazines or anything similar? I would love to know what inspires you and why….

P.S The majority of my collection is stacked away in my grandmother’s attic, my mother’s garden shed (safely stored of course) and I’m sure there are a few at the back of my wardrobe too.
