In the top left hand side there is a welcome message from the editor, it tells the reader a bit about what they have in the magazine and the pages that they can find the articles on. the words "welcome" are written larger in the top left of the page and the they are in pink and a sort of handwriting kind of font, underneath this there are some images and page numbers that the interviews and articles are on to make it easier if the reader wants to read a specific article. And under that in smaller print is the name of the photographer.

The actual contents information is on the right hand side and is split into 6 categories ; Celeb, real life, style, fun, you and plus. this is so that the readers an find the pages they want quickly and easily. they are also colour coded that correspond with the page numbers on the bottom of the pages. this makes it easier for the reader.
