Meg Ryan, I thought she was much older....

She is 47, I though she was in her 50's, maybe because we have been seeing her way too much in the 80's and 90's. Anyway, 40's or 50's kudos to her plastic surgeon....she looks exactly like 20 years ago. She is featured on the latest issue of "Astrologie", an horoscope magazine: "Mirror, mirror on the wall, who in the land is fairest of all?"

For the Garage Sales Addicts

"Chineur" can be roughly translated into "someone who goes to garage sales". Chineur is a magazine I like because it covers all kind of collectibles and antique, and in every single issue there is at least one or two article I'll find interesting.

I picked this month issue for the antique glass pages. But I wanted to show you this issue because I know there is a lot of vintage train collectors out there, and chineur has a nice 12 pages article on Jouef electric toy trains. Jouef is a french firm founded in 1944. If you want to know more about Jouef try Jouef website.

Also in this issue some antique and rare inkwells, collecting antique drinking glasses (beautiful objects, many interesting pictures)and the usual calendar of garage sales and antique dealer shows.

High End Fashion for Kids Magazine

I love beautiful magazines and if you do to don't miss the latest issue of "Milk". You'll love the great pics of fashion and designs for kids. Totally unaffordable for any regular folk, but it can give some pretty good ideas to any mom with crafty hands.

More Twilight Goodies

Twilight is currently the number one cash cow of the French teen magazines. Some are great, some are not worth your pocket change and some just take fans for dumbass (Series City among other. It's probably the most beautiful magazine around, with great layout, pics and posters. But when you start publishing re-issues and alternate covers and special editions and all that over a 2 week period, it's just not right).

I start with one of my favorite Twilight cover ever. It's on "ONE" issue #61. I love the wintertime colors, and Robert Pattinson just looks gorgeous. So this cover is a must in your collection!


The 3rd issue of Dark Mag is out. It's a good mag, but if you buy magazines only for Twilight pics and posters, you might be disappointed. There is a lot of discussions about anything related to vampires, Gothic universe and such. It's not mainly on Twilight. This month issue has an interview with Alexander Skarsgard from True Blood.

Robert Pattinson: more magazines!

Wow 2 more French magazines this morning featuring Twilight and Robert Pattinson.

The magazine "Number One" issue #40 is some kind of a scam. Presented in a plastic bag, the cover makes you believe you will get 100 pages on Twilight. False. You get a mini mag of 15 pages plus 2 unrelated back issue magazines! Very deceptive practice. Shame on this magazine. So you pay for a small magazine, not for 100 pages of Twilight goodies! Taylor Lautner, Robert Pattinson and kristen Stewart on the cover. Articles includes "Taylor Lautner, the new Mr. Muscles", "Will Robert Pattinson manage to deal with all the pressure" and more.

The last issue of Mania (the one talk about last week) sold out in a matter of hours. I tried 8 stores and all were out! Most of the stores receive only a copy or 2, not enough to cover the demand. Same with today's issue, the first store I visited was sold out, the second only had 1 copy. The issue has 2 cool Kristen posters (plus 6 others)

George Clooney is making front page of the first issue of this new movie related magazine called "Cine mag" (how original...). Ok, I am going to say it...my gosh he looks old. I guess I should stop watching ER reruns. He looks so tired, maybe he is sick or something (I sometimes live under a rock, so I may have miss a big news like that). Anyway, besides Clooney and Will Smith, the issue focus mostly on France artists: Luc Besson, Yolande Moreau, Clovis Cornillac, Annie Girardot, Jean-Luc Goddard.
