Kia ora. The first day of winter proper has arrived in Auckland today, it's nice to get the woolies out. We've been having a little down time but we're back now and working on Issue 13. Like every issue we hope to make it the best yet, and thirteen is an interesting number that is conjoined with the colour black. There will be new editorial directions and we're also planning to change the way we publish Blacklog. We're going to return to the core reason we started the blog; to post stories about fashion, art, music that we like and to provide
some sort of visual diary behind the scenes at Black Magazine. Thus we are going to move to a weekly journal style main post interspersed with posts that are more in the moment, or on the day. Thanks to all of our contributors on Issue 12, here's a selection of spreads from the issue, with credits.
