The title is teen-vogue, which is a way of getting the popular woman's magazine Vogue to a younger audience.
This magazine cover just screams femininity, it has a very subtle background which makes everything else stand out. Aside from the black subheadings in bold the pink and peachy colors are really feminine. You can tell almost instantly that this is genuinely not meant for men, stereotypically with the subheading '101 glam dresses at every price' and 'the best shoes, bags and jewels'. Plus with the heading about having a crush on a celebrity guy 'crushing on josh hutcherson'. Also where it says 'how to deal with a controlling mum' it's trying to relate to a teenagers life, by giving tips of how to deal with life at home.
It's very fun, girly and fits well into the young teenager stereotype which it's most likely aimed at. It encourages the concept of fashion and wearing make-up and finding bargains of these.

This magazine is aimed more at the older generation of teenagers, as so with the headings 'pretender to have sex made me popular', 'i'm 15 and planning my big fat gypsy wedding and 'i was made to marry a chicken'. These are quite outrageous for a younger audience. Even for teenagers it seems over the top. Also it's very Americanised in the way the whole is represented through America. All the headings are either red, blue or white which are the american flag colours along with the word 'sugar' which is filled with the pattern of the american flag. So it really represents how much America is involved with everything in the media nowadays.

This magazine is a popular woman's magazine, yet it very popular also when it comes to teenagers, it has the look of an older teenage to adult look, the image on the front is more glam and sophisticated and the headings are less scandalous. It sticks to the femininity area with the sub-headings of 'the hair issue!' 'the do's and don'ts of fall fashion' and 'what to eat for amazing skin' it's all very body and appearance concious. Yet it goes back to the whole relashionship/boys area with '20 weird things guys secretly worship about you'
