This cover speaks for itself -- it's edgy, colorful and adventurous. Not only does it showcase what Lady Gaga is known for (the white hair, the tan, the faux lashes), it includes a pair of glasses (modeled after the Marc Jacobs ones Gaga wore for the shoot) that you can detach from the cover! Very cool.

Best: Gwen Stefani, "Glamour," October 2009
Stefani left behind her usual red lips and rocker style to show off her feminine side on this cover. We love seeing this softer, cozier (but still totally sexy) side of Stefani.
Because we're obviously list obsessed, we decided to end the year by sharing another best/worst story dedicated to a fun and juicy topic: magazine covers. You may not realize it, but you probably walk past hundreds of magazines each year without really seeing them. We're often guilty of this too, but the magazines mentioned in this list definitely jumped out at us. Some of them were so gorgeous they stopped us dead in our tracks, but others caught our eye and left us wondering, "What were they thinking?"
From Beyonce's elegant shot on the cover of "Vogue" to Victoria Beckham looking slightly freakish on the cover of "Elle," these glossies have stirred up talk, buzz and even controversy among readers and editors alike. Check them out, and if any of your fave or least fave covers didn't make the list, please share by commenting on this story.
