Destination Waikiki

As we're in the middle of summer, we wanted to revisit the Hawaii trip we took last spring. We crossed the ocean into our favorite islands, and also had a bit of a time warp - hello, 50s! The beautiful blueness of the oceans makes us yearn for the clean ocean, warm sand, and big hair (yes, again and again please!).

How are you spending your summer so far? Any trips being planned?

Past Cover Models

Today, we decided to take a trip down memory lane before our 3rd anniversary issue hits (in the fall!). After three years of writing stories on amazing women, showcasing beautiful fashion editorials, and interviewing all of our favorite people in Hollywood and beyond... We simply want to say, thank you. The support we've received in all our years (thus far) have been incredible, and we are humbled by your positive responses.

If you've been a longtime reader...do you remember each of these covers? We've had the honor of working with:

- Lindsey Shaw ("Pretty Little Liars") - Jessica Lowndes ("90210") - Victoria Justice ("Victorious") - Jackson Rathbone ("Twilight") - Aly Michalka ("Easy A") - Ashley Tisdale ("Scary Movie 5") - Sophia Bush ("One Tree Hill") - Jennifer Love Hewitt ("The Client List") - Anna Kendrick ("Pitch Perfect") - Emmy Rossum ("Shameless") - Kaley Cuoco ("The Big Bang Theory") - Anna Paquin ("True Blood") - Julianne Hough ("Safe Haven") - Kristen Bell ("Veronica Mars") - Nikki Reed ("Twilight") - Mary Elizabeth Winstead ("Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter") - Emma Chapman and Elsie Larson ("ABeautifulMess.com")

And readers will be in for a treat for the next two cover girls of ours! We cannot wait to continue sharing this experience with you, and are grateful for our endless collaborations with both friends and fans.

Illustrators Wanted!

In our Summer 2013 issue, we asked six illustrators to draw what they thought the "Zooey" girl looked like. Our expectations were exceeded when we were sent beautiful portraits with details on why each drawing resembled our readers!

The above image is a drawing by the talented Esther Kang, which was featured in the current issue!

For our upcoming issue, we are asking for another set of six illustrators nationwide to draw us something special to be published in print. If you are interested in a challenge, send us an email with your portfolio!

Deadline to email: July 14, 2013
