Magazines play a big role in our lives. They serve as a source of information and entertainment. And what the face is to a person, the cover is to magazines. It makes a first impression on the reader and often decides the success of an individual edition. At the same time, covers dictate trends and determine what is "important" at a given moment. Karen X. Cheng and Jerry Gabra therefore took a close look at the covers of many world-famous magazines and created a proper retrospective of their development.

Octane enthusiasts beware. If you're one of those people who don't miss a pair of suede driving gloves in the car and have black nails every day of the week, then we've found the one watch you really should have. Forget smart watches, forget classic timers. Because if the smell of gasoline is your perfume, then the Drive watch by designer Gus Petrikas is your fashion accessory.
When you think of ice cream, you'd probably never think of Puma sneakers, but that's about to change thanks to the sneaker brand's collaboration with fashion brand ICNY, as they've unveiled two new sneaker models from the Ignite 'Ice Cream' series. The sneakers come in two flavors (read color combinations), namely with the "flavor" of cookie and mint. The first pair is dressed in white and sprinkled with "chocolate crumbs" on the side part and a "chocolate" sole, while the second pair is greenish in color combined with black.
Every year we get a series of new and unusual trends that attract a lot of attention. With some they reap great enthusiasm, while others can't wait to go to the dustbin of history and sink into oblivion. The 1990s were a champion when it comes to this. Crocs, square diamond earrings, necklaces made of gathered shells and snails, bleached hair,... Here are fashion trends that should never happen.
The basic task of the eyebrows is to protect the eyes from sweat. But now that the fashion trend from the nineties is back - thin lines or "notches" in the eyebrows - they will do it a little harder. But we humans, especially girls, are ready to do a lot for beauty. A good example - shoes with a high heel. And while the stripes have resurfaced, they've never really gone away in hip-hop culture.
Boots come in all shapes and colors and the days when we only wore boots when it rained are long gone. They have established themselves as a fashion trend and many people use them to brighten up their style, and they also add color to the gray days that come with autumn. We've rounded up the most colorful and fashionable boots, and added a dash of the unusual to make you look forward to the rainy fall weather.
The Baubax jacket is the "Swiss army knife" among jackets. Why? It is filled with fifteen functions that you wouldn't even think you could find in a jacket. The Baubax jacket was raised on Kickstarter as much as 6 million US dollars more than the goal, and what else would you expect when you find both a phone charger and a drink pocket in the jacket?!
Zlatarna Celje is enthralling this summer with the fashionable Sailbrace bracelet, with which we will remember the important moments of life and save them forever. A light fashion accessory goes with just about any task and style, and is especially evident on warm summer days.
Rarely do shoes fit our feet perfectly, and if they do, they are usually too expensive for many. The Italian shoe manufacturer, Vibram, better known for making military footwear, has found a solution: Furoshiki shoes, which are not put on, but literally wrapped around the foot.
It may seem at first glance that the Klokers Klok-01 wristwatch is just a "cacophony" of numbers, but in reality, this quartz watch tells us the time quite simply, albeit unusually. Inspired by a logarithmic calculator, it uses three rotating dials to show the exact time with a magnifying glass to help readability.
There are grandfathers, and then there are Grandfathers, which includes Günther Anton Krabbenhöft, a 104-year-old gentleman who has more style than you and knows that fashion is not reserved for the young and that age is just a number. The German says that the Internet has doubled the number of crosses he carries on his back, but the truth probably lies somewhere in between. Anyway, his recent "photoshooting" in Berlin at the Kotbusser Tor train station is proof that some fashion is eternal, even if it changes practically from month to month.
Men, if you're looking for a hairstyle that will totally rock you, the only real choice is the fade haircut, as this is currently considered the coolest haircut for men. Open a magazine, turn on the TV, the fade is everywhere. A hairstyle where the hair from the top of the head down is always shorter and which was popular among African-Americans at the end of the last century. Just remember the Fresh Prince. But this does not mean that all such hairstyles are like this, far from it. The fade is actually different on each head, and it all depends on how quickly the long hair changes to short or vice versa and what happens to it on the scalp. We present to you six of the most popular types of such hairstyles.
