Cebu’s summer femme fatales

 CIRCUIT TRAINING - JR Isaac -
Some of Cebu’s most beautiful and stylish women came together as Metrobank Card Corporation celebrated femininity with the launch of the Metrobank Femme Visa held at the posh and newly-renovated Marco Polo Plaza Hotel.

Headed by its president, Anne Young, the Metrobank Card Corporation and Cebuanas were treated to a summer chic fashion presentation featuring the show-stopping and colorful spring/summer collections of 2006 of some of Stores Specialists, Inc.’s most revered brands: Salvatore Ferragamo, Charriol, Polo Ralph Lauren, Anne Klein, Laundry by Shelli Segal, Calvin Klein Underwear, Diesel, Lacoste, Lacoste Accessories, Nine West, Episode, Jessica, Marks & Spencer, Beauty Bar, Bloom, and Springfield.

What made the show even more exciting was the participation of Cebu’s pride, the beautiful Femmes of Cebu: businesswoman June Ugarte, style-setter Sonia Yuvallos, Cebu TV personality Jaja Chongbian, entrepreneur Therese Sabarre, Havaianas distributor Aimil Sarmiento, lovely Gayle Urgello, endearing Sandy Puray, hip doctor Cheryl Carcel and Zee Quarterly’s stunner Leigh Carcel.

Jovi Abad


How can you make the most of your Metro Femme credit card in Cebu?


Splurge on Lacoste and Ralph Lauren clothes.

Irene Young


What’s the best food to eat in Cebu during summer?


Grilled seafood and grilled pork belly because it’s tasty. Plus, our halo-halo is to die for.

Leigh Carcel


How would you convince someone to visit Cebu?


It has the best-tasting mangoes and lechon and the best resort and beaches. Not to mention the warmth of the people and bustling nightlife.

Kathy Tesoro


What are the best finds in Cebu?


The accessories by Mikel Ansingh, bags from Joanna and Kenneth Cobonpue’s one-of-a-kind furniture.

Cheryl Carcel


What characteristics are Cebuana ladies proud of?


The charm of the Cebuana is her strong and determined character. She dominates the work force by her intelligence and creativity yet prioritizes family.

Jaja Chongbian

Where are the best places to party in Cebu?


Formo, because of the chillout music and ambience, and Club Vudu, the only club that features dual-level partying.

Alessandra Ty


How do you discipline yourself in terms of credit card spending?


I list down my credit card expenses so I don’t lose track of them.

Lani Osmeña


What are the best things to do in Cebu during summer?


Weekend in the beach, island-hopping with friends. The bigger the group, the more fun.

Therese Sabarre


What can you do in Cebu for 24 hours?


Go to the beach to snorkel, cross to Olango island for freshly-cooked seafood, head to the hills to catch the sunset, dinner at Golden Cowrie or Neo-Neo, then get a massage at Meddah Spa.

Zandra Ty


What is the best perk of having a Metro Femme credit card?


I get a lot of freebies such as career seminars, magazines and, most importantly, discounts galore!
