The early preview for the February 2013 Burda Style magazine has been posted – you can see it on the German website or the Russian website. So far it looks slightly more interesting than January. I haven’t seen any wow looks in the preview so far, but there is a bit of potential, so I … More Newsflash: Burda February Early Preview Posted
After the fabulous issue that was December I had high hopes for the start of Burda’s new year. Sadly, those hopes were dashed with the full preview of the January issue. I suppose after the brilliance that was December it is natural that there would be something of a lull in the next issue. And … More Newsflash: January 2013 Burda Preview!
Hard to believe that we aren’t even in December yet, but already the first preview of the 2013 Burda collection is up! And… well… ummm… yeah. Color me not impressed.

And Burda is ready to help us do just that, with the … More Merry Halloweenmas! December Burda Early Preview Posted
Russian Burda finally got its act together after teasing me with a sad and mostly empty page (showing only one new photo, and another picture from last year), and now has the full November Preview up. Overall I am pretty excited for this issue. I mean, sure, there is an entire section dedicated to slouchy at … More Newsflash – November BurdaStyle Preview Posted!
I have been going at it with the sewing machine – I still haven’t fully sewn together my pants (I still need to attach the waistband and hem, but probably not until next weekend), but I did working on muslins for my button shirt and a jacket. First, the good news: the jacket muslin is … More Two Muslins and Other Thoughts
Normally around this time someone would be doing a full announcement of the magazine, but perhaps we have to wait another week?
