HUSTLE FOR THE PRETTY THINGS IN LIFE
Issue 6 | 2
EDITOR'S NOTE We are now on our sixth issue of Luxur Lux Magazine and I am blessed and grateful for every reader. As we close out the year with our December issue being the last of our monthly timeline, we will now transition into bimonthly. We want to give our readers more fashion features, quality interviews and produce one of the most beautiful magazines in the world akin to a coffee table book, proudly displayed in the most beautiful hotels, homes and businesses. Our November issue features our cover girl Alexandrea Garza, which is the reveal of our new cover design. We are excited to share how Alex was able to build her YouTube career and grow as a mega influencer. I hope this issue makes you dream and inspires you to follow your passions.
