Ocean Drive

Imitators have come (Las Olas) and gone (Lincoln Road), but Ocean Drive endures as the first and most successful style magazines that you look at, then carefully position on your $1,500 Fratina Due coffeetable but never actually read. That's not a slam. The over-sized style bible delivers what it promises: gorgeous fashion photography, society pictures that look like studio work, and portraiture that competes with Vanity Fair. All you need to know: In its 11 yearly issues since 1993, only two men have been on the cover. Diddy and Shaq.

It was a great place to intern before the merger with Niche Media. I was able to learn a lot about editorial but now that the Miami Beach office really doesn't do much editorial, it definitely became a waste of time. It was sad to see so many people lose their jobs because of people wanting to make money. The magazine just isn't the same.
