The magazine featured items on cookery, dressmaking and fashion, as well as articles of wider interest and provided an outlet for women writers. Circulation under Todd's editorship was estimated to have reached 150,000 weekly. From 1933 until 1940 Ellen Todd worked in an honorary capacity for the Empire Gazette, edited by Adela Pankhurst Walsh. Ellen's recollections of social and artistic life in Sydney were published under the title of Looking Back in 1938.
