Hardly Magazine Banner




Hardly is an online teen magazine based in Toronto, which launched in Summer 2010. We are a quarterly arts and style magazine, featuring original photography and illustration, alongside articles on music, art, film, and fitness. We also offer our readers regular columns on books and advice.

We believe in providing a platform for Canadian teenagers to share their voices, opinions, and ideas: Each issue, we select a Teen Editor who reviews albums, creates playlists, and test-drives beauty products. We also feature day-in-the-life diaries from teens across the country.

Hardly is dedicated to providing teenage girls between the ages of 14 to 18 an alternative and enlightening read that encourages individuality and creative thought.

About the team:

Co-Editors Laura deCarufel and Jennifer Lee met while working in print magazines. Jenn was the managing editor of LUSH and Argyle, and is the current editorial director of FILLER Magazine. Laura was the online editor of FASHION, and then the senior editor at ELLE Canada, where she remains a contributing editor.

Every issue, we work with incredible photographers, illustrators, writers, stylists, and hair and makeup artists. Check out our Contributors!
