This magazines layout is also very similar week after week, which brings me to the conclusion that the editors keep the basic style for each issue and change only a few things each time. A large main photo is normally situated to the right of the page, but actually covers the entire magazine - articles and such are pasted over the top. The name "woman" is at the top of the photo but underneath her head, which makes it look like it all fits in comfortably. The articles are surrounded my box's placed in seemingly random angles at the left hand side of the page. A strip at the top of the cover is used as another advertisement of an inside article as well as a circle in the top right showing a competition deal of some sort. The colour scheme of the magazine uses more colours than the other magazine I researched; it uses pink, yellow, purple and white with a bit of black text. This looks good as firstly they are quite feminine colours which would attract their target audience as well as that being so colourful would also help in catching viewers eyes. 7 images are used on this issues cover, which is the same as the amount used in "Woman's Own" magazine. If very few images were used I think the magazine wouldn't be quite so attractive, as they help to advertise the articles presented.
