After finishing my format, I needed to know what I'm going to specifically write my article about. I already established the idea that it will be about fast fashion and it's popularity with teens, but that's about it. However, after deep thought, I came up with the perfect idea. Going way back to when I was conducting the photo shoot with Alexa, I chose her because she cared about the environment and I thought she would've been a good role model to my teen audience. With that being said, it would be hard to show that she is a role model without my audience knowing about her. In order to do so, I decided that my main article is going to be about Alexa and her shopping habits. To get this information, I am going come up with questions to ask her in an interview. I then plan on explaining in my article the good habits she has and the one's she needs to improve on and why each is important to help the audience understand why they need to adopt such habits.

The greens and blues often represent the colors of the environment, and the reds are used to grab the readers attention in puffs, masthead, and headlines and to represent danger.

After deciding on our magazine title, we needed to chose a common house style to represent our magazine. My group mates decided to mess around with the fonts and colors on an app called PicsArt and produced example cover pages to show what the house style would look like on it. Personally, I liked the color red as the main color in our title because it grabs the reader's attention. It would also go good with my specific magazine because my magazine will talk about the environmental impact of teen fashion, which will hopefully incorporate the color of green. I feel that the green and red will go good together. However, I feel that the font seems a bit tacky because of how curvy and fat it is. I think that we should choose a font that's more bold and sharp because it's more likely to draw attention from a potential buyer to our magazine. Additionally, I would prefer that the font is just red, rather than it being red and black. It again seems too tacky. I expressed t...
