How to Pitch: ELLEgirl

ellegirl.jpg"ELLEgirl is for the teen but with a serious twist. It's for the girls who somehow manage to find out who they are in their teen years, rising above cliques and insecurities. They are simply cool and, according to the mag's tagline, "dare to be different." Since launching as a website in 2001, ELLEgirl has evolved into the handbook for hipsters in the making," writes Lauren Smith Ford. Pitch the "Total Girl" and "How to Deal". "Beauty and fashion is mostly staff written and regulars write the Class of 2008 feature." Pitch via email.

Disclosure: I do freelance for ELLEGirl (for the Class of 2008 feature), and they are not paying me to say that I have a great time doing so, and that if I have a daughter, I won't mind sharing my copies of the magazine with her--yes, it's fun to read for old people too.
