What to expect in our summery July issue

Look forward to this month: Make the most of the warm weather with our full BBQ feast of steaks,  ribs, fish and sides. Work it all off with our slim-down secrets: seven ways to ensure you look hot in your itty-bitty short shorts, then treat yourself with a new sundress or pair of sandals. Our selects start at just $7. Next, take a breather with one of our 12 favourite beach reads this season, from romances to mysteries.

A book for your thoughts: We dug into our archives to find the most interesting (and cool!) images for the covers of our unique new commemorative notebooks. Each features a vintage picture and is the perfect size to stash in your purse. Available in-store and online mid-June, collect all five and use them for to-do lists and brilliant spur-of-the-moment ideas.
