CONTENTS PAGE ANALYSIS-GLAMOUR


This is the contents page of GLAMOUR magazine- a womens monthly magazine.

COLOUR
the masthead of Glamour is written across the top of this contents page in different shades of pink, similar to the shades of pink you get when buying lipsticks. This inter-textual reference is so that the audience knows that firstly this magazine is aimed at women but also that in this issue they can expect allot about beauty or fashion.

The heading for each puff and page number are also in pink, this is to make them stand out more to the reader, it makes it easier for the reader to find the page number they want so in a way it is used as a helpful hand to the reader. this theme of oink is in keeping with the theme of this months cover colour, the writing on the cover is all oink therefore the magazine is keeping a clear theme.

IMAGES
this contents page only has one dominant image, the image of this model in an outfit with text saying "we ♥ this £49 skirt! just on of the 100's of steals inside!" this this is to give the reader an taste of what is to come in the issue. the reader will see this outfit and will want to look through the magazine at what other style tips it has to offer. once again, using the strategy of helping the audience to draw them in.
