The major fashion editors at all the big papers-- Cathy Horyn of the NYT, Hilary Alexander of UK's Telegraph, and Teri Agins of the Wall Street Journal, for example, all have blogs. And we've found that they are just like us!!! While the blogs at WSJ and the Telegraph are dedicated to coverage of the shows, (which wouldnt make it into the main paper) and fashion advice, and We especially can't live without Cathy Horyn's (pictured left) blog. She really lets us into her world, and we get a glimpse at what it's like to be a front row editor travelling the world covering all the major shows, hobnobbing with the world's top designers and just being alone in a strange city on what is essentially as very glamorous business trip.

DNR reports that men’s magazines are skewing older, now that many laddie magazines like FHM and Stuff have shut their doors, Reaching an older, affluent man is now a priority for many magazines.
