About the Cover

Jessa Jane Carriaga on the cover of this year's Unleash Magazine. She had been in various fashion shows and had joined

And she proved just that when she arrived at a Milan Fashion Week party last night in a sheer black shirt, which she wore

without a bra.The supermodel made sure she was centre of attention as she joined to the stylish crowd at the Stuart Weitzman store opening in a rather

revealing outfit.Wearing an almost see-through shirt, Kate opted out of wearing a bra, meaning that her

breasts were on show for the rest of the night.

In addition to being the kind of pretty that just makes you want to buy all the

world's beauty products, the actress has teamed up with Eco-Change

and Green Carpet Challenge founder Livia Firth (Colin Firth's wife!) to promote ethically-made, glamorous clothing.In the latest issue of Net-A-

Porter's The Edit, Emma models sustainable designs from Christopher Kane,

Victoria Beckham, Erdem, Roland Mouret and Burberry, proving that fashion can

be jaw-droppingly gorgeous and be made under fair

conditions.

A SMASHING SUCCESS

Once again the Green Fashion Revolu-tion of Aboitiz gave time for students to showcase fabulous gowns, designs, clothes and an awesome ramp of the models. It`s all about the designs, creativity and passion of stu-dents this event! Mixing and matching stylish key pieces to glam up our day.

The Green Fashion Revolu-tion organized by the Aboitiz group aims to promote the group’s five pillars of sustain-ability: reduce, reuse, recycle, rejuvenate communities, and renewable energy generation. The event gave the students the chance to create their signa-ture styles on making designs. It made their hearts beat happily

throughout the event as it paved way for guests to enjoy and join the refreshing

evolution of green fashion. Green Revo attracted and inspired people to look amazing on low cost apparels. A lot of designers, stylist, and fashionistas

have been craving for an exquisite wardrobe. Well, they don’t have to look for it; you can find great fashion at Green Revo.

LUXE FOR LESS

Cebu Normal University was one of the schools who partici-

pated on that event. We have two versatile stylists who showcased their talents in terms of design-ing and making the apparels. Mr. Rodsel E. Alcontin and Ms. Gether M. Canillo, they are from College of Teacher Education BSED in TLE. Rodsel was the designer for the fe-

finds atGreen Fashionmale costumes where there were seven of them. He was chosen to design for the cos-tumes after he proposed his designs to the SSG. His pas-sion in designing motivated him to join and make loads of designs, as what he men-tioned “great designs”. On the other hand, Gether, the stylist for the male costumes, made three superb designs for the male models. She said that her friend (Rodsel) motivated her in styling the costumes.

Wondering what the cos-tumes were made of, we

wander around every corner of the SSG office and found out interesting information. The costumes were made of recycled papers from the office, discarded tarpaulins, sacks, and other waste ma-terials. They also used colors like silver, black and white. They used these colors to have uniformity if designs.

NO FAIL-STYLE FORMULAS

The team decided to have their theme as “Vogue”. The Aboitiz was the one who gave them the idea on what theme they should have. At

first, they want to do some painting for the costumes but they were running out of time that`s why they shifted to have papers and silvers instead. They prepared the costumes within two weeks before the said event will be hold.

To say that the show was successful is an understate-ment. Not only that they set the runway on fire; it was also an unforgettable expe-rience to everyone who was there to watch the show.

Beau tyThe

OVERWEIGHTFrancesca Fernandez, one of the stunners in the

Green Fashion Revolution 2, is the Miss UP- Cebu 2013. She is in her 4th year of BA-Psychology in the prestigious, University of the Philippines.

1. Can you tell us something about yourself and your career as a model? If I can use three words to describe me, it’s “loud and hungry”. Those two adjectives can be taken literally, I really am a very loud person, a very talkative and extroverted one; and I am always hungry, hungry for food (as seen in my body), hungry for knowledge and hungry for experiences. My loudness doesn’t only stop in my mouth, it also describes the loudness of my desires in life. Add up this loudness with my hunger, and you get the average teenager with very big dreams. Being this type of person gave me the experiences I currently have at hand, one of which is holding the title of Miss UP Cebu 2013. This title paved the way to even more experiences in my life, including the few modeling stints I have en-countered. I don’t really consider myself a model, I just grab opportunities when they’re presented to me. In fact, I’ve only tried the run way three times, and a photo shoot twice, which was again, offered to me because of the crown I hold at the moment. All my modeling experiences can be attributed to my winning the crown, which I am very thankful for.

2. You were one of the head turners during the 2nd Green Fashion Evolution held last August 3, 2013 at SM Trade Hall. Can you tell us how and why did you join the said fashion competition? The concept of the Fine Arts (FA) students who represented our school, UP for the said competition was “breaking the norm” so they got models of varied sizes (height, weight) and personal styles. My FA designer friend (who happened to be close to me) just suddenly asked me to join because his teacher suggested them to look for a plus- sized model; and they right away thought of me because I was carrying that image as Miss UP Cebu 2013. I happily agreed because of a lot of reasons. One, their concept of “breaking the norm” aligned with my goal when I joined our school pageant. Second, I thought that if I joined, it would be a great way of sending a message to the youth that beauty is not equal to skinny. Third, I’m all about welcoming new experiences in my life, and I knew GFR would be a great new experience which I could happily remember and tell my future children about.

3. How confident are you up on stage/catwalk? Can you tell us how you build your confidence? “Just have fun and enjoy the experience.” This quote, which my make-up artist and uncle told me on the night of the pageant, is what brings me confidence on the catwalk (and for other events that involve a huge audience watching you). When you stop thinking about the negative things such as failing or losing, you stop letting pressure win over you. When pressure is not present, you can fully enjoy the experience at hand. For example, instead of thinking too much about how I should walk and pose, I just let my body do the walking, I enjoy the music playing when I walk and I focus on the crowd who are there to support me. Your supporters can really eliminate the pressure. It’s really all about mind set.

4. As a plus-size model what do you think is your advantage compared to the typical skinny models? I become a challenge to anyone who wants to work with

me. For example: designers and stylists can’t just throw me clothes in an instant, because most clothes used in modeling and events are for skinny people. When they work with me, it requires more effort; stylists need to search more clothes that can fit me and designers need to design clothes that would suit my body type. (which I sometimes feel guilty about, haha!). Others tell me this is a good thing (probably to lessen the guilt I feel), because it brings out the versatility of the designer/stylist. Also, I get to send a message to the youth that you can become a model while not depriving yourself of the things that make you happy in life, in my case, that means the love for food. As long as you have the confidence and determination, you can be who you want to be.

5. In a society that stereotypes a model for being skinny, as a plus-size model, how do you go about people’s judgments and criticism? People don’t often believe me when I say I have such a low self- esteem, but it’s true. The criticisms I get from people always bring me down, but I never dwell on them too much. Whenever I get criticized or judged about the way I look, I allow myself to feel sad and insecure for a while, then I move on. I believe that it’s good to acknowledge your insecurities, but it’s never good to dwell on them forever.

6. Do you see yourself as a skinny model? Or do you consider losing weight and continue your career as a skinny model? I definitely never saw myself as a skinny person. Whenever I model, I see myself as what I really am, a person with more weight and fats than the average person. As for the second question, I do plan on losing weight, but not the drastic type. I am starting to get concerned about the effects my weight has on my present and future health, that’s why I plan on doing something about getting the scale down. However, my motivation for losing weight is not at all related to physical appearance. In fact, I plan to lose only what is necessary for me to leave the “obese” IBM. I still plan on maintaining the plus- sized image though because I don’t think I’ll ever be happy without food. (shy smile)

7. What advice can you give to the girls who want to become models but could not because of their weight? The problem with humans, is that, we care too much about what others think of us. Often times, their opinions make us captives who no longer chase what we want in life. I’m not telling you to just forget what others think, that’s hard. I swear, even at this point of my life, society’s opinion of me still bothers me from time to time. It takes a great amount of courage and acceptance to stop caring about what other people say about you. I’m still on my way to that, on my way of accepting myself fully, because I believe that acceptance of the self is one of the greatest things you can ever achieve in your life. The only great tip I can give to those girls is that you should accept your insecurities, and change the way you think about them. If it weren’t for my insecurities, I wouldn’t be Miss UP Cebu 2013 right now, and I wouldn’t have had my modeling experiences. Your insecurities can be a source of weakness, but it can also be your source of strength. Also, another great thing to always remember is that people will talk about you no matter what you do, and where you go. It’s just a matter of remembering whose opinions matter.

Psych's Pride:A l b e r t Y a m o m o

Albert Yamomo (2nd year Psychology student at Cebu Normal University) one of the male models in the fashion event felt happy and lucky that he’ve

experienced that kind of fashion show. The efforts of the team were not wasted because they won the competition and they deserved it. When asked if given a chance to rate the team’s effort from one to ten, he answered 10 because of the exceptional effort that the team gave.

“ Overwhelmed kay nakaexperience kog suot ug ingon ato nga what seems to be useless was converted into good fashion,“ said Albert Jan Yamomo, a second year , BS- Psychology student. Albert did not audition for the Green Fashion Revolution, he was asked to join the group because he has already an experience.

Albert had a hard time trying to balance schooling and of the same time practicing for the fashion show. He, together with the other models, rendered their time practicing after classes and it was worth it. He felt satisfied and boosted his pride after CNU was announced to be the Champion.

Beauty that Shines T h r o u g h

This was the mere description that Princess F. Jayme defines a beauty that is simply pretty but cap-tures the heart of the crowd.

Ms. Princess F. Jayme is a second year communication student in Cebu Normal university . Through her charm, she was chosen to be one of the models of the green Fashion revolution 2013. Actually, it is not her first time to involve in this kind of affair; she was used to join in various pageants. Miss Mactan 1st runner up was one of her awards. She was also one of the Miss Mandaue finalist, though she was not able to hit the top, still she got all the courage to confidently join the screening for the Models in Fashion Revolution.

She felt pressured in preparing herself to rock the runway , Shen then realized that she is bringing the name of Cebu Normal University that she must be at her best, since she and the other models are competing t with other highly recognized schools in Cebu.

“Cebu Normal University compiled everything. The message was there and the effect was provided which made the University won the competition.

A 2nd year TLE major student of Cebu Normal University shared his creative mind in designing the dresses of the “Green Fashion Revolution 2013” held

last August 3 at SM City Cebu Trade Hall.

He told us that his passion in making and designing dresses serves as a way for him to continue sharing his talent to the people.

Despite of many negative feedbacks that he would hear from other people it did not stop him to continue pursuing his dream to become a designer, and the Green Fashion gave him the opportunity to showcase his creativity. However, difficulties during their screening came along as he was told to improve his designs, but he held on a quote that says, “When things go wrong that you musn’t quit.” , and instead of quitting he was motivated to make a better deigns. Furthermore, these new and better designs bought the name of Cebu Normal University as the “Champion” of this years’ event.

The creative mind behind the designs,

For so long, creating and playing paper dolls became a simple and fun activity for children especially in a rainy day. Which made me to play with my cousin as my

living doll and dressed her with papers. Using newspapers and magazines, glues and tapes, we came up into a small project that tested our creativity and resourcefulness.

The bloom of paper clothing started on year 1960’s in US. But now it is becoming a trend again which many fashion de-signers reinvent the use of paper in their creations. Paper has become a famous material of choice of many artists for its manipulative nature. Also it is eco-friendly which in-spired me to do this dress. The photoshoot was done during the typhoon Bebang in the Philippines inside our house. This will remind us that we can help the nature by

making something useful out of our waste materials. Recycle!

“Read My Dress” does not literally says to read what is written on the dress. It says that we should keep our eyes open to our environment! Helping our nature in artistic way is kinda challenging but fun!

Let’s make Recycling artistic and fashionable!

30 know-it-all

Fashion Tips1. Know Thy Body: Know your measurements

before you shop. Not only will it cut down the time you spend trying on clothes, it will help you choose outfits that fit your body perfectly. Among the most important body parts to measure are your bust, chest, hips and waist. Source:iVillage.com

2. Don’t Go Too Tight Or Too Loose: Dressing for your size doesn’t just mean nixing clothes that are too tight from your wardrobe. It also means you shouldn’t wear clothes that are too baggy. Both will make you look frumpy.

3. Make Sure You Can Walk In Them: There are some occasions we’d sacrifice comfort for fashion. After all, four inch heels guarantee that legs-for-miles look. But if it looks better than it actually feels on your foot, you probably won’t wear it. Don’t waste your money (or endure the pain). Source:The Fashion Spot

4. Peek-A-Boo Isn’t Cute: Button down blouses are intended to do one thing and one thing alone — stay buttoned down. It looks sloppy if we can see what lies beneath your shirt.

5. Be A Lone Wolf: Shop solo. You’ll be able to concentrate more on hunting down exactly what you’re looking for. You’ll save a lot of time while you’re at it too. Source:In Style

6. Remove Lint: A lint roller is a must-have (cat lovers, you know what we’re talking about). Give your outfit a few quick swipes before heading out the door (don’t forget your back and behind your

legs) to catch any unwanted hair and dust on your clothing.

7. The Power Of Peplum: Worried about your waist or hips? Try peplum for an instant slimming effect. It flatters every figure and does wonders at hiding unsightly bulge.

8. Try On Three Sizes, Not One: Shoe sizes vary among designers and brands. Start by trying on your usual shoe size, then try on one pair that’s a half-size smaller and a second pair that’s a half-size larger. When in doubt, buy the shoes that are a half-size larger. Source:The Fashion Spot

9. Know Your Colours: Know which colours will flat-ter you the most by figuring out if the undertones in your skin are either warm or cold. The experts at The Fashion Spot say women with cool under-tones look best in white, black, gray, silver, and shades of blue. Women with warm undertones will be dazzling in shades of yellow, gold, brown, green and red. Source: The Fashion Spot

10. Organize Your Closet: Organize your closet. This way you’ll be able to see what you own (and ac-tually wear it). Separate your clothes by garment. Figure out what what can be folded neatly and what needs to be hanged. Make sure you get the right hangers for shirts, skirts and pants. Use stor-age shelves to store your purses and intimates and buy a shoe rack. For more detailed instructions on how to tackle this task, check out what our friends at Lucky Magazine have to say.

12. Invest In A Quality Iron: A quality iron is an absolute must to ensure you don’t damage your clothes. Get one with a range of settings that can conquer even the toughest wrinkles, but gentle enough to iron over delicate fabrics. Because there are so many irons out there, the folks at Real Simple have made it easier for you to decide on one that will meet your needs. Check out their list of the top 40 irons they tried.

13. Get Chic With An Ultra Cute Umbrella: Rain or shine, we are always trendy. Get yourself a colourful, knock-out umbrella that makes you stick out.

14. Work Out Stylishly: Come on, let’s be serious, the gym can be an intimidating place with so many buff, sweaty bods. We’d be lying if we didn’t say we never wore mascara before lacing up. But hitting the gym shouldn’t make you fret. It should make you feel good. Getting some trendy workout clothes that fit your body will make you feel more confident and encourage you to break a sweat.

15. Organize Your Jewelry: Store all your jewelry in a jewelry box. You’re less likely to lose them when they have a home. Not only will they be easier to find in one handy location, you’ll remember what you already own so you don’t buy pieces you don’t need. Your jewelry will also last much longer when it’s protected.

16. Alter Your Clothes: It’s important when you’re investing in articles of clothing that become staples, like blazers and pants, that you have them tailored.

18. Know Your Neckline: Making note of what works for you and what doesn’t is key and neckline plays a huge roll in this. The neckline is the part that shows off your pretty face, so be sure to get it right.

19. Know Your Arch: Shoe shopping? Make sure you know your arch type. In an interview with the folks at The Fashion Spot, Erica Lynn Stanley, design director of...me Too shoes, said the best way to determine your arch is to step on a piece of paper after wetting the bottom of your foot. You can determine whether you have a normal, flat or high arch by examining your wet footprint. If the middle part of your footprint doesn’t show up, you have a high arch, but if you can see most of your footprint then you have a fairly flat arch. Your arch is normal if you see half of your wet footprint. Source:The Fashion Spot

20. Donate Clothes You’ll Never Wear: Stop hoarding. If you haven’t worn it recently, then you probably never will. To help de-cide if you should toss it or not, the experts at Apartment Therapy suggest you answer the following questions: Do you like cut, fabric and colour? Are you comfortable wearing it? Does it fit you now (no, not if you lose 3 inches off your waist in the next month)? Can any damages like stains or holes be fixed? Do you have more than one place to wear it? Can it be combined with other articles of clothing in your clos-et? When was the last time you wore it (if it’s been over a year, nix it)? Source: Apart-ment Therapy

21. Learn To Pack Lightly: Packing lightly is an art. Unless you’re walking a runway in Milan, you won’t need more than just a few key ensembles. The folks over atApart-ment Therapy stick to this rule-of-thumb:

21. Learn To Pack Lightly: Packing lightly is an art. Unless you’re walking a runway in Milan, you won’t need more than just a few key ensembles. The folks over atApart-ment Therapy stick to this rule-of-thumb:

If you’re going away for one week, pack three bottoms and 3 shirts per bottom. For two weeks pack five bottoms. For every dress you pack, you can lose a shirt and a bottom.

22. Nix The Change Purse: Change purses can be useful, but if yours rarely sees daylight, either because you don’t put change in it, or worse, never take change out of it (this is just dead weight), then it’s time to say goodbye.

23. Body Shapers: Thank goodness body shaping has evolved from Victorian waspies to Spanx (after all, we want you to be able to breathe). Body shapers are ideal for hiding excess bulge (who likes the sight of love handles or muffin tops?) and allows clothes to glide on smoothly.

24. LImit Accessories: We love accessories, but we have to draw the line somewhere. If you’re throwing yourself an arm party, then it might be better to steer clear of too many rings. If you’re wearing large earrings that scream for attention, then you might want to forgo an equally radiant necklace — they will only work against each other.

25. Purse Essentials: A purse isn’t just a fashion statement. It’s main purpose is functional. You carry it around wherever you go so it needs to contain some essen-tials: your wallet, a pen, pain killers, hand sanitizer, tissues, make-up essentials (we personally won’t leave the house without lip stick and/or lip balm), hand cream, gum or breath mints, tampons or maxi pads (no one wants to be caught off guard during that time of the month), and for those of you who spend lengthy bouts talking, texting or gaming, bring your phone charger along.

26. When In Doubt, Overdress: There’s nothing worse than showing up an event underdressed. Maybe the invite didn’t specify or involved the word casual — but everyone else dressed up not so casually. If you don’t know what the dress code is, overdress. There’s no harm in looking too pulled together, but you’ll feel uncomfort-able if you think you look out of place.

27. Wear Nice Underwear: Wearing nice underwear every day will make you feel special. Sure, not everyone gets to be so lucky and see how nice your underwear is, but you’ll know. Also, be sure to get your bras fitted — often. It will make your clothes hang better and be infinitely more comfortable.

28. Sharpen Your Sewing Skills: Have a mini sewing kit at home or in your purse. This way you can salvage your favourite blouse or pair of pants by patching up minor tears with some simple needle and thread action.

29. Get Some Stay-Up Thigh-Highs: Some-times pantyhose creates an unsightly bulge around our mid-section (ladies, you know what we’re talking about). To eliminate this altogether, why not use substitute pantyhose with stay-up thigh-highs? They’ll do exactly what pantyhose does, minus the bulge.

30. Use Nail Polish To Stop A Tear In Its Tracks: Pantyhose is notorious for ripping. We’ve been victim to this fashion mishap one too many times. Until someone invents pantyhose that won’t tear at the slightest tug, we’ve got a temporary fix. Just dab clear nail polish on both ends of the rip and it should keep it from getting large

G l o b a l1Go on a picnic Grab a bottle of cheap red wine, a couple of sandwiches, some bags of chips, a banig, and your guy's hand- and lead the way to MOA's bayside rock ledge just before sunset. Nothing fancy, and he'll appreciate it all the more for that reason. After all, that famous view is more breath taking than any bank- breaking fancy dinner.

3Shop for furniture Okay, so you're not going to buy anything, but you saw how much fun Zooey Deschanel and Joseph Gordon- Levitt had in 500 Days of Summer.

4Go bar hopping! The spontaniety of this activity will no doubt keep both of you excited all night.

5Go for a drive Take some snacks with you, pick your favorite coasting highway- SCTEX is a good one- and go! Just driving aimlessly with the music blasting and windows rolled down can be incredibly relaxing.

6Hike or bike in the country Relaxing yet acive, undoubtedly romantic.

Life MattersEVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW TO FACE THE

Moving on upHow do you get noticed at your job to merit a promotion? UNLEASH gathers expert ideas from the industry pros.BY:

1Learn to see the big picture. If you think that doing exactly what your job requires enough, then you couldn't have been nore wrong. fulfilling the requisites of your job description is expected to keep your current position, but aim to go beyond it.

2Show your leadership prowess-but know when to back off. There are instances whwn exerting too much effort might actually backfire . For example, you know how you insist on finishing everything on your own until the wee hours of the morning? They appreciate your effort, but won't reward you with a promotion.

3Innovate , and never be irrelevant. Employers will always say that no one is indespensible, perhaps in a bid t scare you, but the truth is, companies love innovatores and creative thinkers and will do everything in their power to keep them.

4Don't wait, intiate. If you think it's the right thing to do, just do it. Bosses love seeing

someone take the initiative, wether it's addingthat exra analysis, or chiming in with a suggestion- even if it seemingly falls flat.

5One step ahead. You must always not only think ahead, but actually be ahead, whether in terms schedule or in terms of strategy.

6Be a team player. You've heard it many times before, and it's harder than it sounds. It takes more than attending brainstorms and the office happy hours.

7Look the part. Wear office appropriate clothes, flawless makeup, and smart accessoriesfor a look that's polished and professional.

Life ConfessionsI gave a guy a fake restraining orderI hated this guy who had huge crush on me and followed me aound everywhere. i knew he was gullible, so I made up restraining order with fake signatures and showed it to hin. He was sad, but he actually believed it was real and stopped stalking me! He still doesn't know it was fake.
