We do! Before celebs took over magazine newsstands, it was Bridget Hall's, Kirsty Hume's, Nadja Auermann's, Tatjana Patitz's, and Yasmeen Ghauri's mugs that winked, pouted, and beamed at us as we stopped at our favorite bookstore to read the latest magazines for free.

It was a more innocent time. Before tabloids spilled celeb's business and before women's magazines essentially became vehicles for promoting stars' latest films/movies/albums (or at least before we realized whoever was on the cover was there to sell us something). FabSugar has a great retrospective photo gallery up that made us remember when... Check it out!
