In high school I was addicted to Teen Vogue and Seventeen magazine. Senior year while at rehearsals for "The Sound of Music," my director peered over my shoulder as I was curled up in a grungy theatre seat poring into my beloved Seventeen magazine. He simply asked, "So, when you turn 18, what will you do with your life?"
This question honestly hit me like a ton of bricks. Along with graduating and moving out of my house to start college in Los Angeles, I was going to have to STOP readingSeventeen magazine?!
That day I went out and bought every women's fashion magazine I currently wasn't already subscribed to. I read every single one cover to cover in an effort to find my favorite. One magazine in particular stuck out: Lucky magazine. I became obsessed with the way the pages were so perfectly arranged and the simplicity of it's editorials. Every month after that I looked forward to reading Kim France's editor's note.
Kim France was Lucky magazine's editor-in chief when the magazine produced its first issue in December 2000. Since then she has made the magazine the go-to for answers to fashion's toughest questions like: "How do you stay stylish when the weather turns slushy?" as featured in the November 2010 issue.
But now, it seems the magazine is looking for something fresh with the announcement of its new editor-in chief: Brandon Holley.
Brandon Holley, a sort of web genius who has been taking the digital fashion world by storm with Shine, took over as of the December 2010 issue. Does this change in command nod towards a possible future focus on the online form of the magazine, luckymag.com? It's too soon to tell, but you can bet I'll keep you updated. Until next time, Chelsea.
