[1] I can't lie.  I'm a spoilt brat when it comes to fashion magazines seeing as I have pretty much MOST of them at my disposal from being in London via the avenues of big Borders/RD Franks/Magma/Clare de Rouen and the Japan Centre/Chinatown/New Malden if I need an Asia Pacific fix... (still no sign of Korean Elle Girl or Vogue Girl though...).  However, one publication is alluding me and just refuses to show up no matter how much I cajole the mag deities.  I talked up [2] Preen magazine [3] a while ago and they kindly sent me [4] their first few issues, thus taunting me with their beautiful images and out-of-box styling. 

Their latest spring 2008 issue 6 [5] is now out yet it still has not managed to show up over here yet.  I've taken to going throught he shelves meticulously just in case they turn up behind another magazine, and visiting the SUPERSIZE magazine newsagents on Old Compton Street and Theobalds Road yet I've seen nothing.  Images via TFS [6] will have to suffice and this Op-Topic editorial  (photographed by Peter Stanglmayr, styled by Avena Gallagher) featuring Andressa Fontana, as well as making the eyes go a bit funny still impresses me with an eclectic mix of Norma Kamali, Margiela, Sandoval and Uniqlo (officially the high street shop that dominates my wardrobe weirdly enough...)....
