2010 has been a rather successful year for Stylist, with various awards and accolades given to us - and the trend continues today, with news just reaching us that your favourite weekly read has been named one of the media brands of the year by Brand Republic.

Citing "the combination of intelligent editorial and thoughtful design" as a key factor, the media industry organisation stated that our success was especially notable considering hwo tough 2010 has been for publishing.

With this in mind, we're particularly thrilled at the success we've experienced, and would like to thank you, our loyal reader, for the part you've played in it. Here's to another fantastic year in 2011!

Congratulations to us!
