The magazine that I decided to use was a 2017 Cosmopolitan Magazine. The genre of the magazine is predominantly fashion and style. The colors featured on the magazine are blue and red. They are these colors, because it is intended to match the featured person on the cover. They use these for the sub-headlines as well. The kinds of articles included in the magazine are various types of clothing, perfumes and make-up. Usually in traditional magazines, celebrities are found wearing the couture clothes, in the hopes that people will buy it if popular celebrities are wearing it. But I noticed that in this magazine edition, there are models featured in the magazine that are wearing the couture clothes. Like for example, on page 34 there is an advice article written by TV commentator Gretchen Carlson. But on the next page, there is a random picture of two girls modeling Vera Bradley clothes and bags. The magazine doesn't really have a structure to it's advertising; it's just included. The ads of clothes, perfume and make-up are sprinkled in everywhere; in the beginning, middle and end. The cover photo is a picture of actress, Hailee Steinfeld. Inside the magazine is where she will be sharing her "Hot Sex Diaries" and will tell about when she feels "the sexiest". The pictures included in the table of contents are pictures of models, handbags, lipstick and crystal, bedazzled wine holder. All things for women benefit. The magazine reported that the U.S. paid circulation of Cosmopolitan magazine is 3,032,211 issues per month. Cosmopolitan won the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Magazine Overall Coverage in 2016.
