Love them both! Sending you a high five for the notable mention ..well done lovely xo
I really enjoy them both. Some issues are not going to be as great as another, and that's okay, it helps us all have a discerning eye for what we like and what does not work "for us".

First impression, RUE killed it with the style, layout, and content! I will take RUE over Lonny (don't care for the name) anyday!
xo,

woo! congrats on the notable contributor mention! I've been trying to make my plea for Rue to add Blu!

I love them both, the same way I love a couple of published mags the same way. (PS-kudos on the you part ;-)
Love em both, we're lucky that we have them to feed our healthy obsessions!
Well done to you too x
been meaning to pop over to say congrats.... so, congrats!
love the new blog header. can you share the font names with me? pam
I loved your contribution to Rue Ashlina, and I know great things are to come for this lovely new mag!

I completely agree - I don't think they need to compete with one another! They're different enough to appeal to people in different ways (not the same thing twice). I'm just thrilled to have 2 replacements for Domino!
Congrats on getting a mention, well deserved! And I also enjoy them both.
i've been thinking the same thing...i don't have time to be devoted to BOTH so i may make a pro/con to decide WHICH to read!!! :)
A well-deserved mention; congrats! I truly enjoy both digital publications; no reason why they can't co-exist. :)
