Results:
3.) Which magazines are most followed?
· People
· Seventeen
· Vogue
· Fashion

· In Style
Out of the seven magazines most frequently purchased, People was the most common through 45% of the girls buying that one (which is 5/11 girls).
Conclusion:
Although most of the responses I received stated they hardly ever purchased a magazine, there was a high rate on being interested in what is in style, primarily being able to “glamour up” with makeup and dress according to fashion trends.
