 Ideas
BEING PRETTY THROUGH THE SEASONS Pick 1-3 beauty products for the season that you think everyone should give a try. Include pictures, and try to give an example of what the items cost and where people can get them. (For an example: a great lotion for the summer or winter, etc..)
THIS NEW THING What is that new, special something, that everyone just seems to want to have? Love it or hate it, this editorial serves to document all the current fads. Make sure you include pictures, so that everyone has an image of what you're choosing to discuss. If possible, include stores that one could buy these items.
HOW TO DRESS The real-life version of the Gaian article, and maybe a bit easier to write for. Pick a gender (or both - or don't, whatever floats your boat), then pick an occasion, and put together an example outfit (with pictures from online sites, or pictures you took yourself). Provide commentary on why the outfit you chose fits the occasion, and give people a rough estimate of what the outfit would cost them, or where they could purchase the items pictured (doesn't have to be exact).
LOOKING GOOD ON EMPTY POCKETS Again, the RL version. You've got $150 dollars to create a stylish outfit for a female, and $150 to create a stylish outfit for a male. Give a description of the items, and tell why each outfit works. If you can, include prices and stores where these items can be purchased.

Special Mini-Series
DRESSING WITH THE TIMES Pick a fashion decade, and include not only what was happening with clothes, but - if you want to - other trends of the time. Try to include either an actual picture of someone appropriately dressed for whatever fashion decade, or put together an example outfit. Try to include pictures and just be creative and have fun.
Here are some years you can choose from, but I think some fashions, like the whole Victorian era, span a couple: 1830-1900, for example. ...1800, 1910, 1920, 1930, 1940, 1950, 1960, 1970, 1980, 1990...
If you choose something not quite on that timeline, be sure before writing the article that you will be able to produce pictures, and write more than just a few short sentences.

'Looking Good On Empty Pockets' sounds awesome. I myself struggle with finding clothes I like on little to no budget. But, after years of practice, I've gotten good at it. Thank gods, else I'd be wearing my clothes from when I was 8 sweatdrop

I like the "How to Dress" thing. It might be fun to choose an occasion and have a few of us do our takes on it.
