REPRESENTATION:
My magazine represents young adults who try to find ways to express themselves through fashion. I want them to read my magazine and see what they truly feel comfortable wearing and how to feel confident in their sense of style. In my magazine, the feature story focuses on a young man who found himself through fashion and learned how to embrace it. I am aware a lot of young adults have an issue find it difficult to know what they should wear to fit in society; my magazine helps with that. In my feature story, the boy talks about his experience and how to overcome it and just simply be who you are. This magazine is for young adults, however no matter what your age is, they still can read it. It has a lot of advice on the latest trends and how to keep with society’s fashion.
