I love snagging freebie publications whenever I visit other cities so while bouncing about Boston yesterday I grabbed a copy of the adorable Skirt! Magazine. Skirt! was born in 1994 as a monthly magazine for women in the Charleston and Columbia areas of South Carolina. Now print copies of Skirt! are available in sixteen cities and growing. I like Skirt! because it’s a nice break from some of those regular lady-focused mags that only seem to discuss how to loose weight and how to gain a man (gross). Skirt! covers everything from shopping to spirituality, featuring poetry, essays, art and articles. This woman-owned business celebrates femininity and feminism and is an inspiring example of how, with hard work and hope, a small business can grow. takepart and check out the online version of Skirt! at http://skirt.com/.
