Seventeen magazine is aimed at a younger audience and we can see this through the use of the word 'Teen' in the title and the bright colours that co ordinate with the mast head and the cover models lip stick. There is a lack of text on the cover and it is focussed more on the cover model that is Rihanna. This shows that it is appealing for a younger audience as her music is widely listened too by young teenage girls and woman in their 20s.
The Marie Claire magazine has a more sophisticated edge to it as the cover uses more downcast colours. The khaki colour used for the text and as the cover models jacket is usually associated with wealth and class and this would therefore give off a clear message as to who the target audience is. They use more text on the cover of Marie Claire showing that it is aimed at those who are interested in reading articles. Therefore some may assume that this is appealing to middle-aged woman who are middle class.
