The long, dark, cold and wet
evenings are nothing but a distant
memory...
Shake the crisp crumbs off and
dig yourself out of the pile of
chocolate wrappings as it is
time to get a lovely golden tan,
silky smooth skin and do some
serious shopping to get ready
for the season in full colour!
Christmas parties, New Year's Eve
celebrations and last but not least
the Carnival ­ yes the time has
come to get out there and get
crazy! Get a few of your besties
over and bring on the party!!!
The world is your oyster ­
whether you are planning to go to
`D' best club in the city and dance
the night away with a perfect
stranger, spend a wonderful time
slow dancing with "the One" in
a winter wonderland scenery at
the Christmas party, or organize
some winter sun getaway to
hmmm.... let's say Thailand to
experience the holidays of your
life... all is possible.
So get out of your onesie, throw
them slippers away and slip into
that glam & glitz dress that makes
your curves look sooo yummy,
put on them killer heels (that you
will probably regret wearing at
around 2 am... : ) and don't forget
about the smokey eyes and of
course... THE NAILS!
it is time for the life in colour!!!

EDYtA ZUrAWsKA
A full time
professional
photographer
based in Dublin
with a great
passion for
photography.
Edyta is now
specializing in nails, hands and fashion
photography. "I have noticed there
is a gap in this area of photography.
I have been working with many nail
techs on their portfolios and taking
shoots for the competitions. I believe
that taking photos of hands is the most
difficult part of this job, but after doing
covers for the magazines I have gained
enough experience and confidence."

Cover story by Maria Kardas
The morning of the shoot I was
in a great mood, not like the day
before when I had to change the
photographer at the last minute. You
know the way you agree to something
with a person and then they don't
pick up the phone, or they call you
the day before the deadline thinking
that everything was set up? Well
that's what happened. So, I rang
Edyta who did a great job on the
last cover and she was very pleased
to work with us again. We had a
great time with Fiona Morris from
Artisan International; glitter and
confetti was all over the place. We
were drinking champagne and making
our New Year's resolutions already!
Oops, I think I said too much...
