Quick Outfit Post - Work With A Twist Part 2

This is my second post on Work With A Twist.  Work With A Twist is about wearing office clothes and making them look fabulous by adding OOMPH! to any simple, boring color or design. 


What I wore in this post was just a normal outfit for the office, a plain white men's undershirt from Muji and navy linen skirt from Plains and Prints.   To veer away from being boring, I added the newest spring summer 2012 accessories from H&M and Mango. 

I was wearing:

men's white undershirt: Muji

navy skirt: Plains & Prints

bag: Prada

mint shoes: Mango

white belt: Dorothy Perkins

acrylic & neon necklace: H & M

Summer Is Here! - Trip to Balai San Juan, Batangas

Sorry I have been really busy these past few days, my post for about Summer has been delayed!

Moving forward, summer is fast approaching and I can't wait to hit the beach yet again!  Went to Balai San Juan, Batangas last week and spent 2 days there.  Balai San Juan does not have the pristine sands like Boracay, but it was indeed a very relaxing place.   The concept of each villa is for clients to have a relaxing and private time staring at the pond and enjoying the glorious sun and wind.  Price per night is very reasonable, plus, you get to enjoy the buffet each time!  Attendants were very polite and are always there to serve your needs.  Below are photos to show you what I mean! Yoo Hoo for Summer!

and of course I just can't wait to plunge in!
