INTERNATIONAL
In Touch Magazine, September 2015
In Touch is the magazine of In Touch Ministries, with the tagline “Thoughtful Faith Devoted Living”… Who says that Christian magazines can’t push the boundaries when it comes to Creativity?!
The New York Times Magazine, 27 September 2015
So many layers that all add up to creating this brilliant cover — photography, typography, design and a great story angle! This “Voyages Issue” article is a winner, so make sure you take it all in here.
WIRED (US), October 2015
Not sure how much of the masthead and main cover line is photoshopped vs real, but the overall look is über-sexy and stylish!
Wonderland, October 2015
Lusty-looking luscious lips of Lucky on the cover of Wonderland. Ah, Blue Smith, you can appear on my cover every month…
SOUTH AFRICAN
Fresh Living, October 2015
Dear Fresh Living, if you offer these popsicles for sale, and deliver, I will take all six and 10 boxes of those. Thank you.
VISI 80
And you, too, dear VISI, thank you for making me lust after someone’s beach house with this beautiful white canvas surrounded by just blue, blue and blue.

MagLove by @MediaSlut is a regular slot featuring the best local and international magazine covers every week, recognising well thought-out, powerful and interesting (and hopefully all three-in-one) covers and celebrating the mix of pragmatism, creativity and personal taste that created each of them. The (for now anonymous) blogger behind MediaSlut knows way too much for his own good about media in South Africa, magazines in particular. His mission is to show when SA magazines fail but, most importantly, also when they succeed. If you’re looking for a library about SA magazines and news, this is your one-stop pitstop.
