Ford Fiesta Aims to Be Millennial Age’s Judy Blume

I don’t know about you, but as a wee lass I yearned for the hip style advice that only Ford (the car company, not the modeling firm) could give me.

Responding to these dormant desires, Ford Fiesta is launching an e-zine called Neon Candy, “an uber-cool digital magazine set to feature the latest trends in music, style, movies and culture every young woman should know.”

But will it teach me how to put on a menstrual belt?

The ‘zine includes a web drama profiling the fictional Jen, a journalist desperate to ride the cutting edge of pop culture. Wait, isn’t that the plot to Almost Famous — and every essay ever written by Chuck Klosterman?

Neon Candy is UK-based and, confusingly, comes fast on the heels of Tango at the Tower, when Fiesta strained to associate itself with love.
