The color pink is used within this page to link in with the models lips and dress which brings the magazine together.

The positioning of this image is really well done as it takes up a large portion fo the page so the audience can focus more on the text. Additionally the text is emotive and a quote is used as a title for this magazine to draw attention to the person saying it. The color theme for this spread is pink and black. The black matches to main feature of the cover girls outfit.

On this double page the colour scheme is well thought out with the orange of the models lips has been the influence of the orange title and often orange cover lines. Also there is the use of positioning the text close but with lines as barriers so it is clear and easy to read. There has been the use of a medium shot close up which allows the reader to feel more targeted by the artist and connect more to the image which has eye contact so they keep reading.
