JANE magazine leaves the fashion scene

After 10 years of production, JANE magazine is folding. If you receive this magazine, this is your last issue. I was not a subscriber to this magazine, but the times I picked it up, it always seemed upbeat and fun, and it was a great tool for finding fashions and fantastic products. Guess it kinda proves to you that it's hard to make it in the fashion magazine world, especially with the community of fashion/beauty bloggers out there now!

Conde Nast, home of the fashion magazine for its 10-year run, thought about it in a different way.

"We worked diligently to make Jane a success. However, we have come to believe that the magazine and Web site will not fulfill our long-term business expectations," Conde Nast Publications Chief Executive Charles Townsend said in a statement.

The magazine was targeted to gals in their 20s (me!), and Jane Pratt founded it in 1997. Pratt left the company in 2005. Their website, janemag.com, is also going offline. Never fear, my fashion mag-aholics, there are many fashion magazines (and blogs!) out there for us to get our information!

P.S. Doesn't Drew Barrymore rock this cover?! It's freaking adorable.
