Fashion Magazines (Burghfield Common)
Hi, my daughter is looking for some fashion magazines to read though (she’s exploring the idea of going into fashion designing) and wants to create an influence board/ piece of inspiration art. I don’t have anything remotely ‘fashion’ related (no idea where the interest has come from!) and wondered if anyone had a few spare/ due for recycle we could have? Happy to collect anywhere between Burghfield common and Earley as I can pop on my way to work one day. Thank you in advance
