Even the unstylish have them, but not everyone has the time to thumb through glossy magazines for answers. Increasingly, though, magazines are offering quick tips, solutions and advice to anyone whose mobile phone can access the Internet.
This week, magazines Harper's Bazaar and Marie Claire launched new mobile sites for people who want their fashion to go.
There are two ways to participate: Log onto M.marieclaire.com or M.bazaar.com and start a Web session by phone. A menu will appear with a list of headings to pick from — such as "fashion tips," "beauty secrets" or "bookstore" — and when you make your selection, short style tidbits will appear, some with accompanying images.
