- Left hand side of the page and along the bottom consists of headlines and images from articles within the magazine.
Colour scheme:
- Bright colours that stand out and give out a lively, fun atmosphere
- Name of magazine in pink/blue?
- White background allowing written content and images to stand out more
- Written content (eg, headlines) in pink/black/blue

Layout:
- Image from main article takes up nearly the entire of the front page and 50% of contents page
- Images from other articles fairly small and have quote or headline regarding their article underneath
- Written content and smaller images surround image from main article on front cover, either side of image
- On contents page, written content with page numbers on left hand side of page, image from main article in the middle, images of lower status with page number on right and side of page and small concert review a long bottom of the page in a frame/box.

Double Page Spread:
- Image of person who the article is about takes up one whole page
- Apart from the headline, all the written content is the same size which is quite small.
- Headline is in big bold writing and is a quote from the article then explained in slightly smaller writing directly underneath the heading and above the written content of the article.
- One or two smaller images of the person who the article is about is placed on either side of the written content or below it.

Why have I included this:
The headlines that I have come up with relate to the target audience of teenage girls because they are stories that girls of that age will be interested in reading about because they give more of an incite into those celebrities lives. They are also stories that the target audience can relate to because they are realistic to everyday life highlighting how young girls will enjoy reading them. I have chosen to use quotes as headlines because it makes the article seem more exclusive as that celebrity in particular has said it meaning the reader is more likely to be interested to find out more about it. I will explain the quotation used with details on who said it and why leading to more information that he reader will want to find out about. Furthermore, i have chosen to use bright colours because they will stand out for young teenage girls to see and gives out a fun atmosphere for when reading the magazine. The layout of the double page spread will enable the reader to understand what the article is about before having to read anything because the image of the said person takes up half of the given space. I have chosen to use more than one image in this article because not all young teenage girls enjoy a lot of reading at once so by using relevant images, they will get information from the pictures. Additionally, the layout of the front cover will allow the audience to decide whether they are interested in reading the magazine or not because it is clear who the main article will be about and some other articles included in the magazine will be included giving the reader all the information they need. The layout of the contents page will give the reader all the information they will need before reading the magazine as it will include who the main article will be about (which will be clear becuase it will be the largest image), where all the other articles are becuase the page number will be next to the images and headings of the articles and everything that is included in the magazine.
