I have chosen my own lifestyle magazine to analyse.
The cosmopolitan is aimed at women.
The masthead is in bold yellow Arial text.
The Main image is of a model in gym wear, this gives the reader something to aspire to, the model is meant to be an inspiration to become fit. However, I have noticed that the Cosmopolitan hardly ever use a black female model as their main image.
The cover lines vary from large font sizes to smaller font sizes. The colour of the text tends to be white and yellow, keeping it colour co-ordinated.
Advertisements are in the left sided column.
The cover lines usually contain the latest gossip, which can attract a female audience.
