xx, the editors
a letter from the editors of Icon Magazine
T
he endless hours of work and a plethora of Starbucks runs have finally come down to what you are looking at nowthe first ever edition of Pine Crest’s new fashion magazine, Icon Magazine. We’ve been hard at work creating these forty pages filled with insight into fashion, style, and beauty, and to finally see it come together is truly breathtaking. Our mission is to give you- the student body- an outlet for expressing your ideas on fashion and publishing. Hopefully, and iconic legacy will continue long past our graduation in 2014. Countless people are to be thanked for the creation of this magazine (get ready for a slew of clichés). First, our staff, we owe you more thank you’s than we could type here. Because of you, this magazine has come together so beautifully, and we can’t imagine what this magazine would be like without you (actually, it’d be empty!). Secondly, Mrs. Zingariello and Mr. Hoffman, you are the best advisors we could ever ask for. Your impeccable advice and guidance have helped us build this magazine and make it the best it can be. Lastly, all of you, for supporting us and reading this magazine. Hopefully, as you flip through the pages, you will be able to see all of the passion and time that have been put into this issue. So please, enjoy!

COLOR CODED: burgundy By Laura Herman

I
t’s the season of crisp leaves and hot chocolate once again, and we all know what that means- all sorts of autumnal, earthy colors fill the racks and shelves. This year, one of our favorites is burgundy, one of the more regal colors of the holiday season apt to conjure up images of late night holiday parties and the smell of fresh cranberry bread. In fact, burgundy’s probably a lot more versatile than you may think: appearing on everything from loafers and boots to coats and cloches.

Icon Magazine
Best paired with black, burgundy is ideal for holiday celebrations at dinnertime or after, offering a chic evening look with all the appeal of your favorite family traditions. If you’re daring enough, you may even try some burgundy lipstick to complement your outfits this season (Yves Saint Laurent has a great one!). Nothing says “winter break” quite like buying a cute, cozy sweater or finding the perfect holiday party dress... so be sure to splurge on both in burgundy!

Who said Christmas sweaters are dorky? For weather not too cool, wear a fun winter sweater with a pair of shorts. Throw on a beanie to get in the winter spirit!
2
Not liking the shorts look? No problem! A brightly colored sweater (with snowflakes!) and a neutral color pair of pants make an outfit that is sure to get you in the winter mood.
3
Have a holiday party to go to? How about a cute little dress? An open back, although not necessary, just adds to the fun. Très chic!
4
Looking for a little glitz this season? Try out a sparkly sequin dress! A look like this will be a showstopper at any winter or holiday party you go to!
5
Now is as good a time as any, if not the best, to rock that red lipstick. Fun and flirty, this look is perfect this season!

8
A delicate makeup look with a little edge is perfect for the winter. Apply some white eye shadow all over the lid, in the crease, and below the brow bone, dark grey eye shadow in the corner, some mascara, and a light lip gloss, and voilà! Instant winter princess.
9
Leather is as popular as ever! Leather skirts look great on everyone and can either be dressed up or dressed down. They are so in style to wear this season!
10
Not feeling a leather skirt? The classic leather jacket is just as great! Black, brown, or any other neutral color will give a great effect to any outfit.
11
Sometimes it can be a problem cramming everything into your handbag, but not this season! Oversized clutches are totally in style. Day or night, the clutch is the perfect on-the-go bag!
12
Tights are a great way to add a little pizzazz to Boots just never go out of style. Whether your outfit. A pair of tights with a great pattern you wear over-the-knee boots, ankle boots, is sure to add some detail to your outfit. boots with a heel, flat boots, or any other type you can think of, they are amazing footwear this This bracelet is great for giving a glitzy edge to season. If you find the right pair, you’ll never want your wardrobe this season. The black leather to take them off! on the snap cuff and the shiny rhinestones work so well together!

Ali Oshinsky: What specifically is your job?
As Digital Media Coordinator, Leya Edelstein, PC alum ‘07, is at the forefront of Giorgio Armani communications. I got the chance to interview her about how she got her job and what advice she can give to teens aspiring to work in this digital world of fashion.
LE: I graduated from Vanderbilt University in 2011 with a History & English interdisciplinary major. College Leya Edelstein: I am the Digital Media is all about expanding your realm of Coordinator for Giorgio Armani. I work knowledge and choosing what you love out of our corporate office in New York to study. Most employers look for hardCity and manage planning, buying, working interns from great universities. and executing the digital and social My major helped me think critically and campaigns for all of Armani’s luxury creatively. Truthfully, though, college is brands in the US. a time where you have the opportunity to study what you love and find the AO: Did you always know you wanted to professors who inspire you. Working go into fashion? hard and following your heart can never lead you in the wrong direction. Most LE: I’ve always loved fashion, but I people would never think that a major in think very few people know the career history could lead to a job so focused on path they’ll end up taking until they’re the future (technology). already in the working world. I ended up with my ultimate dream job - one that AO: What’s your favorite/the most combines the everinteresting part about your job? What’s evolving digital world the hardest? and the fast paced world of fashion. LE: The digital world is constantly changing. In this position, I’m able to AO: What was your dream new ideas for Armani every day major in college and and bring them to life. For example, has it helped you? I spearheaded a program that made Armani the first luxury fashion brand to partner with Spotify! I also launched Instagram and Pinterest for Giorgio Armani from the US.
10 Icon Magazine
LE (cont’d): It’s difficult, of course, when some of my dreams can’t be actualized due to timing or other parameters out of my control. When any of our competitors do something I’ve been dying to do for Armani, it’s frustrating. That being said, those same difficulties ignite the fire that brings me into my office every day, coffee in hand, ready to make as many dreams come to life as I possibly can. AO: How did you land your first job, and how did you end up at the position you’re at today? LE: I was an intern at Giorgio Armani in 2010 and took every advantage of that opportunity. I became a perfectionist in my everyday tasks knowing that all eyes were on the interns, and praise was extremely valuable. I also kept in touch with everyone I worked for that summer and became an expert on all of the brands underneath the Giorgio Armani umbrella. When graduation was approaching, I knew exactly who to reach out to and where to lay the groundwork for references and potential job opportunities. Just as I was eagerly interviewing for every opportunity that fell into my lap, I received a message on LinkedIn from my boss from my internship in 2010 that read, “Leya, how are you? Are you living in New York City? Would you be interested in hearing about a new position we’re adding for someone with your experience?”...that led to a series of interviews, which led to my current job!
AO: Do you have any other advice for people wanting to enter the editorial/ PR side of fashion? What are some ways students can get a head start? LE: Never stop dreaming. Never underestimate your own power and the power of everyone you meet. Don’t be afraid to ask questions, advice, and favors from those you encounter. I’m always eager to help passionate people who reach out to me, and I’ve found the same to be true from those that I reach out to. In media and PR, relationships are extremely important. Start viewing your relationships as the foundations of your career. Then work hard and always challenge yourself. Never go after anything you aren’t passionate about! I truly believe that passion leads to success.

defining lines By Lauren Salamon

Images from Google Images
ome of us who wear eyeliner can relate to a certain situation… we apply makeup in the morning only to find, at the end of the day, the majority of our eye makeup has crossed into a forbidden territory. What may have once been a sharp, fine black line of glossy eyeliner seems to fade into oblivion. Humidity and heat are usually the culprits in this situation. However, there are two products that promise to deliver a line that stays.
The first product I tried was MAC’s Fluidline gel in the color Blacktrack, which promises a “long-wearing” and “smudge-proof” line. MAC, a company renowned by professional theatrical makeup artists, is known for quality beauty products that are not too expensive. This product is usually sold in MAC and department stores for $15. The product’s packaging is very simple, and the eyeliner itself is extremely matte with a somewhat dull finish. What the product lacks in extravagance, it makes up for in durability. It remains matte and doesn’t move once it has dried.
The next product I tried was Tarte EmphasEYES™ Waterproof Clay Liner. This product comes with a brush and glossy, decorative packaging, and is sold for $22. I immediately noticed the color of this product was a more pigmented and intense shade of black than the MAC eyeliner. According to Sephora.com, “Amazonian clay deepens the intensity of pure color pigments”, and that was quite evident as soon I saw it. However, I noticed the product became dry and less usable in the pot after a couple of weeks, which was definitely a negative.
The Winner:

MAC Fluidline. It promises to be matte and stay all day, which it does successfully with no apparent flaw.

Barely There Makeup One of the biggest makeup trends this season is the barely there makeup look. No more hiding under pounds of foundation, bronzer, and blush. It’s time to embrace your natural face. Use a sheer, light BB cream to cover any minor imperfections and make your face glow! Just skip the blush and bronzer and you’re ready to go. This effortless, natural makeup is great if you’re always running around and don’t have time to apply (or reapply!) your foundation. Make a bright lip pop with this look!
Dark Red Lip Summer was all about light corals and pinks, but now, as the temperature starts dropping, it’s time to start digging for the dark red lipstick that’s been sitting in your makeup collection for ages. This dark, vampy color really makes a statement and can turn any simple makeup routine into a sultry and sophisticated look. The best part? Anyone can pull it off. If you’re fair-skinned, go for a wine red that will really make your eyes pop. Darker-skinned girls should get a lipstick with brown, chocolate undertone to give their skin an effortless glow. (Tip: To make your lipstick last all day, lightly tap a napkin on your lips to wipe off the excess. Now the lipstick is more of a stain and won’t be smudging anytime soon).
Brown Smokey Eye
As the leaves start changing, it’s time to go with light, earthy tones. Black was popular last season, but lately, designers have been trading in the boring old gray and silver for rich browns and bright coppers. Now, anyone can rock a neutral smoky eye, and it’s perfect for school or any other activities you might have everyday. A nice brown palette is a must-have this season, and it’ll be a staple going into winter, as well.

I’m a total product junkie (I have tried a TON of products), and these are the ones I’ve stuck with. Enjoy! -Nicole
makeup
Urban Decay Eyeshadow Primer Potion The Original is your best bet, but if you have light skin, use Eden for a slight tint, or even as a highlighter. Greed enhances warm shades of eyeshadows, and Sin enhances cool shades- you can actually just use them as eyeshadow on their own! They are also great at keeping eyeliner from smearing onto your lids.
Too Faced 3-Way Lash Lining Tool Dab the triple-tip on your lash line to fill in the spaces between your lashes and create the effect of a fuller lash line. Use the three dots horizontally to draw a thin line, or use them on an angle for a thicker, cat-eye look.
14 Icon Magazine
Maybelline New York The Falsies Volum’Express Mascara Apply two coats on top lashes and one coat on bottom lashes for a dramatic effect. Beware that it can get a little messy, so be sure to clean up with a Q-tip once your lashes are dry.
face Tarte Smooth Operator Natural Tinted Moisturizer SPF 20
Clinique Almost Powder Broad Spectrum SPF 15 Perfect for a “no makeup” day or as a mattifier after foundation to add coverage. Use a fluffy powder brush for a more natural look.
This moisturizer looks completely natural on skin with warm undertones, and it adds a subtle shimmer that really brightens up your pretty face. Its many perks include: paraben free, oil free, and fragrance free.
Clarisonic Mia Sonic Skin Cleansing System This is one of those products that will change your life. Choose from a variety of brushheads, according to your skin type. It’s an all new kind of clean, and you can use it with any cleanser you like!
La Roche-Posay Effaclar Purifying Foaming Gel This basic cleanser is great for all skin types because it won’t irritate your skin, especially when using acne-treatment products simultaneously.

BaByliss Nano Titanium 1-1/4” Straightening Iron Kérastase Nutritive Bain Satin 1 Shampoo
The iron heats up in a matter of seconds to temperatures up to 450 degrees. The smooth titanium plates won’t snag, and they create crazy shine.
This ultra-moisturizing shampoo is for normal to dry hair, and it leaves it super soft.
Proclaim Glossing Polish Color and Heat Protectant Use a tiny drop of this daily to control frizz and add shine, or just before using heat products to protect your hair from damage.
It’s a 10 Miracle Leave-In Product This leave in deep conditioner is the best product to use for silky smooth hair. Spray it into damp hair before going to bed to wake up with gorgeous locks! It’s also great as a second day spruce-up.

skin and more
Jergens Natural Glow Revitalizing Daily Moisturizer For the most natural looking tan, apply no more than 3 times a week. Wait for it to dry completely (about half an hour) before dressing, or else it could stain!
Lush Vanilla Dee-Lite Body Lotion This lotion, a favorite of ours from Lush, smells absolutely delicious and leaves your skin feeling soft all day. Apply it daily!
You’ll see results after just a few days, and the transformation is truly amazing! As a bonus, use the 3D White Multi-Care Whitening Rinse after brushing your teeth at night.
Dove Clinical Protection Visibly Smooth Wild Rose Deodorant This non-irritating deodorant reduces the appearance of stubble on your underarms and evens out your skin tone (aka good-bye dark armpits).

recap: fashion destination By Sierra Conine
Images captured by Sierra Conine
A
breeze flew through my flat-ironed hair as I made my way from the red carpet, studded with photographers, to the glass doors of Saks Fifth Avenue. A young man opened the doors and welcomed me inside directing me upstairs. As I exited the escalator, I turned to face the Saks dress department, home to thousand-dollar Dior and Alexander McQueen beauties, transformed into an aggregation of VIPs with drink and food in hand. The women donned elegant and edgy evening dresses paired with sparkling Jimmy Choos and Christian Louboutins, the notorious red soles catching my eye throughout the evening. The men wore sports coats and suits, and I fit in wearing my hot pink Robert Rodriguez dress with Jessica Simpson pumps. An overhead banner caught my eye, reading “Fashion Destination Miami Project Cure for Paralysis” and I remembered why I was here. Destination Fashion is one of Miami’s most noted and charitable fashion events. Nick Buoniconti, NFL hall of famer, started the Miami Project after his son, Marc, was paralyzed in a football accident. The foundation hosts Fashion Destination, an evening of mingling, catwalks, and VIP spotting, in an attempt to fundraise as much money as possible. I had the fortunate opportunity to attend this year, and even more incredible was the VIP status I was allowed to hold for the night. My father, Jeff Conine, along with other local and nation-wide celebrities, donated their time to be presenters of the Fashion Destination Women of Fashion, notable philanthropists for the cause. These women, along with their presenters, all gathered in the department store for cocktails and conversation before the event started. While wandering around the elegant dresses, I recognized some familiar faces, such as Wayne Newton, Miguel Cabrera, Tom Brockaw and Donna Torres, who were just a few of the celebrities in attendance.

We all made our way to the outdoor banquet tables set in front of a stage, the weather uncharacteristically cool for a Florida night. The evening began with thanks to the many people who had helped make the event possible, including Christine Lynn, a twenty-five million dollar donor. As the lights dimmed, I noticed a stark-white catwalk that snaked through the tables, something I hadn’t noticed before. The head designer from Emilio Pucci, Peter Dundas who had flown in from Milan fashion week to present his collection for the first time in the United States, was introduced and the show began. Music began pulsing and the towering models made their way to the catwalk, displaying the beautiful clothes. The collection had an Asian flare that focused on black and white sheer dresses and bold accent colors such as red. After the show, the Women of Honor were announced, and they had the opportunity to walk the catwalk. The night continued in the Bal Harbor atrium, where the high-end stores of Louis Vuitton and Chanel opened for the night to attract the guests of the evening. Dessert displays were scattered throughout, and I made my way through the sea of people. The event concluded with an Enrique Iglesias performance, appealing to the characteristic Latin vibe of Miami. After Enrique’s closing song of “I Like It,” we all made our way to our cars; I was limping as I held my five-inch heels in hand, my feet in excruciating yet fulfilling pain. With a total of $31 million dollars raised, the event was successful in raising money and providing an unforgettable experience.

student spotlight: sarah gale Foreword by Alana Steinberg Interviewed by Catherine Gulley Images captured by Alana Steinberg
Freshman Sarah Gale has shown the school her beautiful musical talent at Playing for Change, and she has amassed a large group of followers on YouTube, where she showcases her covers of different popular songs. Not only is Sarah a great singer with incredible style, but she is also a teen ambassador for Girl Up, a campaign of the United Nations Foundation that focuses on giving teenage girls all over the world equal opportunities. Catherine Gulley sat down with our newest inspiration to interview her to catch up on her music, motivation, and personal style. Catherine Gulley: How did you start singing? Sarah Gale: I started singing before I could even talk. My first time speaking was actually singing Cookie Monster’s theme song from Sesame Street! CG: What has been your best experience with singing? SG: I always love singing—whether it’s in the shower or on stage—but I don’t get to sing in front of people much. In the last year I’ve only performed on stage once— Playing For Change! So when I get to perform, it is the best feeling ever, especially when people tell me they liked it. CG: Who is your musical inspiration? SG: I have several, and they’re super random. I grew up loving Demi Lovato and she definitely rubbed off on my style. I worship Ed Sheeran; he is just a genius. His lyrics are so ingenious, and I love how he has a soft, acoustic side and then a really cool urban style too! Also, Cher Lloyd has helped me find my genre and change my style in the past year.
34 Icon Magazine
CG: Why do you love to sing? SG: I don’t mean to sound cliché, but singing is the only time I can completely shut my mind off from other things in my life and just focus on the music and lyrics. I basically sing “...singing is the only my feelings; whatever emotion I have comes out when I sing. Plus, it’s fun! I just think music time I can completely is one of the best things in life. CG: How did you feel when you performed at Playing for Change?
shut my mind off from other things in my life and just focus on the music and lyrics.”
SG: Backstage I was so nervous. I wasn’t nervous to sing, but I was to perform with my guitar. That was the first time I’d ever done that, and I’m relatively new to the instrument! When I went on stage, I forgot everything. I completely blanked out, but— thankfully—I remembered and I don’t think anyone noticed. It felt amazing. I always love performing, and I was so happy when people told me they liked it! CG: How would you describe your personal style? Who are your fashion role models? SG: My personal style changes so much, but I definitely always stay classy. My fashion role models are Eleanor Calder and Demi Lovato. They’re very different, Eleanor is so classy and stylish and Demi is a little bit more edgy and trendy, so I guess my style is a combination.
