After looking at the high end fashion magazines I then looked at the regional magazine ETC's
website.
website.
When looking at this website you can definitely tell that the genre of the magazine isn't totally focused on fashion. Regardless the website is very informative which is overall the whole point of the website.
There is a very simplistic feel to this website as there is only three colors used receptively, white, black and purple. The whole appearance of this website isn't the most appealing when you compare it to the other three. However as this is a regional magazine website, this is reflected in the appearance/content of the website. There are some aspects of this website which are also on the higher end website, for example the different categories.
There is also a social networking aspect added onto this website. At the top right hand corner of the page there are the icons for the three social networking sites Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. By doing this the website it promoting itself in more ways than the magazine and website.
This particular screen shot of the website is the fashion tab, The images on this tab are all focused around fashion some way or another. Some of the images are very laid back and none edited, where as some of them are quite edited and look ore professional.

When looking at all the website I can really tell how a fashion website should look however, when comparing the regional and international websites you can clearly see the difference, this is something Ill have to think about when designing my website, however this isn't to say that my website can't be as extravagant as the international ones just because of the geographical difference.
Are there any particular style or design elements that you particularly like or dislike that you would want to include/ not include in your own product? If so what? Don't be afraid of being very specific - this is after all research which should help you ultimately create and design your own product.
