January Magazine Issues Do Not Disappoint


Inside this month's Vogue:


My perfect day includes a sipping smooth cappuccino, listening to jazz (I suggest creating a Coltrane playlist on Pandora…it’s splendid) and flipping through the latest issues of Essence and Vogue. If you haven’t had a chance to pick up the January issues of these magazines I suggest you snap them up before they vanish from newsstands. Vogue and Essence are chalked with touching Obama tributes.

The staff at Essence decided to dedicate the entire issue to the Obama’s, and include a number of essays written by prominent black figures. This sentimental issue is simply incredible. It is thought provoking, touching and monumental. In addition to written accounts, the magazine also includes photos that trace the First Family on the campaign trail. This is truly a keepsake, and one of those issues that you will want to pull out years down the line to show your children.

The January issue of Vogue did not disappoint. In addition to including Laura Jarrett (Valerie Jarrett’s daughter) as one of the best-dressed women of 2008, the editors drafted a touching letter addressing the president-elect and his wonderful family. The eloquent piece expresses the magazines support for Barack and a fervent desire for change. To top it all off, one of Vogue’s fashion spread includes Jordan Dunn, one of the hottest girls on the catwalk.

Grab these magazines before it's too late!
