MODE LIFESTYLE MAGAZINE JANUARY/FEBRUARY 2012 COLLECTOR'S EDITION - Editor's Letter: Welcome to the January/February 2012 Collector's Edition of Mode Lifestyle Magazine and welcome to the New Year! The end of 2011 marked another positively eventful year for Mode Lifestyle Magazine with some new faces joining our editorial team and with excitement as we prepare for the shooting of our first feature film "IN THE MODE" in 2012. We are very happy to have added a new section to the magazine, "Teenagers Are Always Right", that will be published from the Mar/April 2012 edition. With expert advice from our new editorial contributors, this section will give teenagers ideas on how to tackle some of the challenges they experience as they approach adulthood. As usual we have our beautiful editorials shot across the globe and also profiles of artists such as Philip Ross Munro and successful entrepreneurs such as Thomas Kramer.
