Magazine Dreams: +40 Fabulous


Early last year I created a bunch of mock-up  magazine covers for a dream of mine- to make a magazine full of style and substance, featuring my favorite bloggers and telling their stories. I hope some day to make this a reality. 


Wax on, VOG OFF. Satiric style is a serious eye feast featuring fabulous +40 fashion bloggers.

In the meantime though, I will get my fill of the sumptuous and satiric style creation, headed by none other than the brilliant Melanie K, of Bag and A Beret. If you haven't yet taken a peek at the sophmore issue of  Vog-Off, well, get on it! It's a feast for the eyes, and +40 fun for the soul!

Fashion Forward in the Land of Oz: Advanced Style hits the pages in the latest issue of Australian Vogue
Melanie's not the only one putting +40s fabulous on the fashion map- Ari Seth Cohen recently announced his gorgeous photo spread in the latest Australian Vogue, featuring some of the more familiar Advanced Style ladies. I need to get a copy of this issue stat! These women look gorgeous in the latest fashions, proof how glorious fashion is on women of all ages. I hope there will be more editorials and magazine spreads like these, and soon!

  1. Yay, Bella!! Your mock-up covers are outstanding! We need more magazines with our fave style goddesses. When I started blogging and found you and Advanced Style and Patti at Not Dead Yet Style, not to mention so many jaw-dropping personal style blogs of +40 women and other incredible -40 women too, I couldn't believe it. Now we've seen the mock-ups, could the real thing be far behind...?

    Thanks for the shout-out for VOGOFF. It was so much fun to put together, but it wouldn't have happened without the generous contributions of many amazing women.

  10. The name is perfect, and your mock-ups are great! Using your tagline Blooming Madly would certainly define your style and content. Maybe you can start with a spread in another magazine, like Ari S-C did.

  12. Adore your creative mock-up covers (and am utterly honoured to feature in one of them). You have a great eye for layout.
    And yes, Vogoff - complete brilliance!
