Looking for a parking slot this time around was a breeze for me. Parking was well-coordinated by Fluor Global Communicators TM Club President, John Jucar, with the building security.

The first time I met Dina Loomis was when we were both part of a Demo Meeting for Amkor Technology Phils. This was way back in 2006 and I was the Demo Speaker for that presentation. She evaluated me for my Demo Speech.
Today's seminar would be the last training event for the year for Division H. My role in today's event was to lead the audience in the Invocation, National Anthem and the Toastmaster's Promise.

Two-Part Seminar
The Power Dressing Seminar today had two parts. In the first part, Dina gave a background of her work as an image consultant. She then moved on to the sharing of valuable tips and techniques on choosing and matching clothes.
She also shared her knowledge on hair and skin care. This spritely lady is 74 years-old! She is the mother of Dino Santos, one of the speakers of the Speakers Summit. Yes, she had tips for both ladies and gentlemen.
The second part, as she had promised, was the more exciting part of the seminar. Here, she engaged participants in various free consulting sessions, but at the same time sharing her feedback and knowledge to the audience.
Book Signing and Pictorials
During the break, many participants went over to Dina to buy a copy of her book entitled, "Beyond Looking Good". Her books were all sold out! The participants had their books signed by Dina and then had individual photos taken with her.
Shown below-left are a couple of guys from Omega Toastmasters Club, TJ Boon Cadayona and Rendum Domingo with a copy of their book. Photobombing in the middle at the back was me, of course.
Free Wardrobe Consultation
In the photo below-right, Dina showed how you may "level-up" your dressing by simply wearing a garment with a collar. She had two male models, Ghee and Rendum. Ghee wore a collared shirt with a jacket, while Rendum had a V-neck shirt with a black blazer.
Color Matching Based on Skin Tone
There were volunteers who took advantage of Dina's free consultation. Below, she showed the Winter and Autumn color swatches and how they matched against the volunteers' skin tone. She did this for female models (shown below-left with Kirsten Joy) and male models (shown below-right with Boon).
Shown below-left, Dina explained in further detail, the Winter Color Swatch with JK Lopez. Below-right, she gave Dolly a brief makeover to illustrate the possibilities of different hairstyles.
Shown below are the participants showing off their new books! What an informative and entertaining seminar!

And that's... a wrap!
