Deborah Joseph (pictured), Editor of Easy Living remarks, “Easy Living already has a strong following of stylish, bright, in-the-know 30-plus women, and I’m so thrilled to be building on that with a new-look magazine that’s even more glamorous, upbeat and filled with ideas and inspiration than ever. We’ve redesigned it and introduced more fashion, more pages and a more newsy feel. We’re also very excited about our new website, with a brilliant team led by the talented Natasha MacNamara, who has made Glamour.com such an incredible success. It’s launching on a whole new platform and so is a completely different design to all the other Condé Nast sites. It looks visual, glossy and clean, and its easy-to-navigate pages cover the huge breadth of subjects Easy Living is known for – food, fashion, interiors, travel, beauty. Be warned! It’s extremely compulsive.”
