further down the page and also the shade doesn't’
clash with any of the images used. The text is in white
to make it bold and stand out and is a house style for
the magazine. The same white font and purple is
followed on from the front cover and the publisher has
used this colour and font as its classy, a formal style is
used to fit the genre and audience.

in the same white font. This actually breaks a
convention as usually you would find the date and issue
number on the front cover. This magazine puts the pugs
on the contents as the publisher wants to keep the
front cover not crowded or layered. The key elements
are put on the front cover and the rest of the
information is inside.
