September Issues of magazines are my favorite not only because they announce my birthday month but also depict the change in trends and seasons.  They are the most important issue of the year and they captivating from cover to cover- Vogue's this year is 902 pages just so they can get everything in.  It would be unpractical for me to list every cover and who was wearing what so ...
