Seems it’s almost the weekend, why not make the most of your time off and indulge in some quality reading time? Whether you prefer to read a Hemingway novel, a local newspaper, a fashion blog or whether buying some avante-garde fashion magazines is more your thing, either way, the weekend is the perfect time to catch-up on your summer reading.

We’ve managed to find the best examples of globally published, independent fashion publications which are truly unique (not your average news stand purchase!) They may cost a little more and be slightly more difficult to find, but once you do get your hands on a copy, these sorts of magazines are often a lot more compelling than those regular fashion and lifestyle titles.

All you really need is a quiet space where you can relax with a glass of champagne and marvel in the wonders of high-fashion magazines… what could be better for some YOU time?
