- The logo dominates the top left hand corner. This is further noticed by the bold red colour and contrasting white 'Q'.
- Underneath the letter 'Q' is a strapline quoting "A different take on music". This implies that 'Q' magazine offers more than just music, it offers a whole range of issues.
- The big, bold and blue '>' draw attention as they stand out and indicate the features situated inside the magazine.
- Lily Allen is placed in the middle of the magazine standing tall. Her provocative look is implied by her being topless but also by her looking straight into the camera over her shoulder. It also suggests a touch of rebellion and attitude.
- The idea of the black panthers also reinforce the idea of attitude and rebellion as they are dangerous and unusual animals.
- The pug 'The 25 greatest rock movies' also stands out as it is in different typography to the rest of the front cover.
- Normally the skyline is situated at the top of the page however 'Q' have situated it at the bottom, further reinforcing the idea about it being a different magazine.
- The colours are kept quite similar; Red, Black, Grey and a hint of Blue.
- The kicker is just above the centre of the page, which is non-conventional as it is normally placed quite low. It's typography is also simple yet effective. Above the strapline it says 'SEXY BEAST', implying that Lily is seen to be as a beast yet attractive. Also her platform boats and leather trousers suggest this. The panthers also highlight this even more. Underneath the kicker it says '& her wicked wicked ways'. The word 'Wicked' is written in red and capitalised with italic, reinforcing her 'bad girl' side.
- The features of all the magazine are situated alongside the left hand side. The page numbers are highlighted in red, alongside the names of the features. Underneath each feature is a small description, where 'Q' have used literary devices in order to draw attention from readers.
- The right hand side is mainly dominated by the image of a band, indicating what is to be seen throughout the magazine.
- The bottom of the contents page holds a box known as 'Q Review'. This shows that the magazine is offering a wide range of options to the audience and is not just a music magazine.
- Main image is dominant of both pages, and this is unconventional as a image with a double page spread normally bleeds to the edges.

- Main image is dominant of both pages, and this is unconventional as a image with a double page spread normally bleeds to the edges.- Main strapline large in the centre of the page which reads "Danger! Shakira at Work.." This illustrates the use of humour and is more appealing to readers as it encourages them to read on.
- Again not following normal conventions as interview is not placed in columns. This emphasises the magazine being different from others.
- Strapimage of shakira placed next to the main image. This attracts the reader more and also shows the difference between the main and snapshot.
