Here is Glamour magazine, Glamour magazine is aimed at girls aged 15-20 who enjoy reading about celebrities, fashion and boys.
The main celebrity image is of Lady Gaga, who is a very controversial female artist. Lady Gaga has a huge influence appealing to young girls and does set a good example that its OK to be different and just be yourself. But she doesn't always set the best example, especially by what she wears which are sometimes very revealing and inappropriate and sometimes just very strange.
Her pink hair in the image above gives an ideology towards young girls, as girls are stereotyped to believe pink is every girls favourite colour, which isn't always the case. Also, the main coverline is in a purple font which may also be associated with the 'girly theme' in this magazine.
The main coverline reads 'no risk, no fun.' setting an example that young girls should take a risk (which could be a bad one) and is setting an example that you shouldn't follow the rules, which could have a back firing effect and lead the girls who read the magazine go against rules they may have been set be parents or even in school.
The other coverlines aren't in english but there are similar words like 'make-up' and fashion and trends, which are similar to what are on usual other girl magazines.
