I used to be one of those people who subscribed to TONS of magazines. More often than not half of them at least would end up in a recycle bin because I never had time to read them. Now I still love subscribing but I use Texture which I have talked about before. This is NOT a sponsored post I just love the service and I have used it for years. So today I am sharing my favorite magazines for the times I actually CAN sit down and peruse one!
Favorite Magazines
Glamour: I have always loved Glamour. I remember in college I used to buy it as a splurge every single month in our campus bookstore. I would immediately park my butt down at a table with a latte and read it! A lot of the series I used to love they still have, and I think it really appeals to people of all ages.
Entertainment Weekly: My favorite times are when they have the movie and TV previews for each season. I also love the must list for great recs!
Fit Pregnancy: I started reading this when I found out I was pregnant and really found helpful articles for fitness, recipes, and fashion!
Shape: Such a great magazine if you need some fitness inspiration or just healthy lifestyle inspiration!
In Style: Another one I’ve been buying for years! I remember when you used to get a free trial at Ulta. Maybe you still do? I love their fashion features and buys on a budget.
Vanity Fair: Great for amazing interviews and a little of everything.
Real Simple: Another great one for home decor, crafts, and recipes. I always find something I love in there.
While I do not have time to read these every month I do love that Texture stores them in my app, and I am only paying $15 a month for these plus a lot more!
Do you read magazines? If so what are your favorites?
I haven’t read magazines since the days of Tigerbeat (ha ha, omg), but I do love aesthetical ones like Kinfolk etc!

I used to love reading magazines. I would buy my monthly cosmo, cooking light, and whatever else looked good and sit down with bravo on and flip through each one. I can’t even remember now the last time I bought one! So sad
Yoga Journal is a must have for me and recently, I just started getting Coastal Living because who doesn’t want to look at beaches all the time?
I have a weakness for People; I don’t often read the magazine, but I check the website a couple times a day. I also LOVE Food Network Magazine.
I read a few magazines myself. Mainly Vogue and InStyle. Don’t really have a favourite. Luckily you have an online subscription which makes life easier.

Man, I barely read magazines anymore because I feel like they’re just full of crap these days!
OMG me too. The new magazines would come in the mail and I haven’t even looked at the current one! I usually go for fashion and entertainment magazines. Texture looks like a great app, saves paper too!
Entertainment Weekly is a favorite of mine too! I also love PEOPLE and Family Fun – when I have time to read that is!
I love reading magazines. My favorites are Vogue, Vanity Fair, Essence and Ebony.
Texture sponsors one of my favorite podcasts. I often thought about trying it but keep forgetting to check it out. I’m happy to know you like it and I will now (right now before I forget again) check it out. Thanks for sharing your honest opinion.
I read more magazine over books it seems like lately. This is wonderful idea and I am going to show this to my daughter as well.
I love a lot of these if I ever have time for magazine reading. I also pick up Parenting Magazine every once in a while.
I always have a stack of magazines to read so once those subscriptions run out, I won’t renew. I subscribe to some of the same mags as you do. I don’t like reading mags on my ipad…I just feel that I miss a lot when I read it on an ipad and I do like to tear out articles and ads that I like. I do like how there is no clutter on that app…it is a great idea.
haha, so i believe i am single handedly keeping the print magazine alive! i get ew (which i love, and pretty much actually read cover to cover) and with all the sales that make them super cheap, i get better home and garden, oprah, marie claire, good housekeeping, in style, and real simple for 5 bucks for the year. i also get hgtv and a travel magazine. the beginning of the month, i looove opening the mail box, but feel bad for the mailman lol. then, most get passed on to my MIL, my office, and my BFF.

oh, and country living for 5 bucks for the year!

I’ve always loved Glamour too! My other favorites are Women’s Health and Clean Eating Mag.
I love reading magazines, however the only obstacle is the element of time. I wish I had more of that. I cannot particularly pick a favorite, but I guess my preference would be People, Good Housekeeping, Entertainment Weekly and travel magazines too. Online versions are the way to go nowadays. Saves on paper, saves the environment. I have to check out this app.
Vanity Fair and Real Simple are my two favorite magazines!
I like your picks! I do have a few magazine subscriptions. I skim through magazines for travel and decoration ideas pretty often.
I LOVE magazines and even save ones that I really like(d). I’ve gone through multiple years of Marie Claire and Allure. I also loved Women’s Health for YEARS. I miss that magazine, haha.
Oh gosh! I can’t remember the last time I read like a real magazine haha I used to love Real Simple though!
I love Gamour, Real Simple and other home magazines as well! Loved reading more about your favorite magazines!
I love reading magazines, but I don’t subscribe to any! My mom and grandmother subscribe to their faves & then pass them on to me to read; which is fabulous because I love Southern Living, Better Homes & Gardens, and HGTV magazine as well. Then I recycle them to my classroom for reading after assignments are finished or for cutting up for arts and crafts 🙂

Fit Pregnancy is a magazine?! How am I just now finding out about this?! haha that’s now top on my to do list for this week. I want it.
I love magazines! I briefly had the app but got so busy that I wasn’t able to spend the time reading them to make it worth it. These are all great mags!
So many good mags here! I haven’t read a magazine in awhile though…haha whoops.
I love this app but haven’t had it for a bit since I started cutting back on subscriptions in general. I love People magazine and Everyday Food.
I love reading magazines and I keep meaning to download that app. I will do that today xx
I haven’t heard of Texture before, it sounds convenient for those that like digital magazines. I don’t read any magazines regularly.
These sound great. I have not read a magazine in a good while. Maybe I should check these out, soon!
I still love magazines! I don’t buy them much anymore, but just browse through them in the checkout line at the store. My favorites are the house and food mags, like BHG, Real Simple, Southern Living, Bonappetit, etc.
It’s been ages since I read an actual magazine!! I’m pretty sure that the last one I bought was back in High School when i NEEDED the newest edition of Cosmo!
My favorites are the science ones. Astronomy, National Geographic, Smithsonian. Things like that. 🙂
I love reading magazines and now really enjoy them on my tablet. One of my favorites is People.
I have not read a magazine in a good while. Maybe I should check these out, soon! I keep meaning to download that app.
I’ve always loved Glamour and Shape, but I love me some Rachael Ray Magazine <3
Sadly I don’t have time to read magazine but I wanted to if my kids are sleep but if their sleeping I always rushing my work.
