I stuck to a basic, simple colour scheme to maintain the simplicity and class that is shown in the picture and to keep the magazine looking neat, tidy and professional. The title 'a day in the life of Lily Allen' is written in the same colour as the background and the text is written in a black colour which matches Lily Allen's dark hair. The background is kept white to keep it looking simple and classy and also to match the colour of the dress she is wearing in the picture.
A quote from the article is written over the picture of Lily to draw attention to what the article is about and what is included in it. This is also a common thing to do in an article of this type and I have seen this used in all of the double page spreads like this one.
I have kept the layout of the text stereotypical to a common magazine by using columns and dividing the text into paragraphs. This makes the text easy to read and makes the page look professional and neat. There is a brief summary of the article at the top of the page to give the reader information about what the article is actually about and give more insight into the title and who Lily Allen is. It is also bolded to draw the readers attention, along with the information about the release of her single at the bottom of the page.
I also included a picture of Lily Allen with one of her children as she speaks about them.a lot in the article and it gives more insight into the 'Life of Lily Allen'. It has a caption to explain the picture.
I have maintained a girly image like the front cover and contents page as I have also used swirly writing which looks pretty and attractive to the female target audience and I have also used a very feminine image of Lily Allen.
