Hey folks,

How you doing on this dreary winter's day? I have to admit I really haven't minded the miserable weather over the last two weeks. The rain and cold signal the proper start of winter, which means winter fashion!!! My favourite fashion season. I love the layering and accessories of winter fashion. Boots, scarves, coats - this week I even discovered that I am indeed a hat person. After many years of watching on jealously while other girls have pulled off cute woolly hats, I finally made myself go and try a bunch of them on - and whaddya know? I'm a hat person. The added bonus of wearing hats is that I can also skip on the sometimes tiresome hair routine in the morning. Ten minutes of extra sleep? Yes please.

Anyway, moving on to the really exciting news - our winter issue is on sale this week! This issue is another huge edition with 310 pages of fashion and pop culture goodness.

Inside this issue:

* We’ve gone 3D crazy! You’ll find a pair of 3D glasses on the last page – use these to check out the incredible 3D fashion shoot and of course the limited edition 3D cover.

* Guest fashion editor Atip Wananuruks has produced an epic 123 pages of stunning winter fashion for your sartorial viewing pleasure.

* The free CD with this issue is mixed by Maya & Vanya, who have just had major international success by winning the coveted DJ Magazine New Generation DJ title, which has seen them playing in Miami for the annual Winter Music Conference. These girls are hot property!

Happy Monday,
