Mango Fashion
Yay!
The week is over!
Again, another stressful week in the office and as usual, I am always looking forward to the weekend rest and oversleeping.
I came across the Mango Blog and decided to take my own phota (hahaha!).
I always love the green Sunnies, this blue detailed jacket, black suede pumps, Alice Slim Fit jeans and the cutesy bag from them.
The jacket makes me look a little fleshy as I am skinny (I love my body that I am in whatever it is!).
The fit of their clothes suits me just right.
Looking forward to shop again on the year end sale.
We, girls, do not have to break the bank to be a fashionista.
Their mid-year and year-end sales are the events that I am waiting for to grab most of the stuffs I like and love.
So head to the nearest Mango Shop or check their iPad app :)
Happy Shopping Girls!

Coffee Shop
Sunday Night is bonding night with the girls.
It's always so nice to have a chat over coffee or dinner or even anything after a long day at work without you noticing the time (haha!).
We had discovered MB, this new coffee shop just along C-Ring Road and on the opposite side of the Holiday Villa Hotel.
It's a new complex with some restaurants and business establishments too.
I had ordered a Frapuccino and Chocolate Cupcake which is freshly baked.
We chose a table outside, under a big, white umbrella (of which I was so scared and kept on thinking that it's going to be blown off by the gentle wind) and watched as the cars passed by.
It's another night well spent and am looking forward to another coffee break!

Pasta Italiano
The best pasta dishes and sauces are still the Italians'.
I was lucky enough to find Jamie Oliver's Spaghetti Sauces range from the grocery store!
I was wondering if they've been there for quite some time and I haven't noticed them or they're just new on the shelves.
Anyways, I was craving for Spaghetti two days ago.
If we have the time and energy, we would normally go to Souq Waqeef and feast on Spaghetti Ala Carbonara or Spaghetti with Jumbo Shrimps at La Dolce Vita.
Since we were both lazy and scared of the traffic, we had decided to cook at home.
And you know, it's one of the best spaghetti sauces that I had ever tried - tastes like the one from the Italian restaurant!
Grab some and try them.
They have a wide range of sauces including Pesto.
You may check Jamie Oliver's website here and check out his other products plus recipes.
Happy Cooking and Eating!

See You Soon!

| See you soon! |
Yay!
I am so excited.
My friend and I are planning a trip to Dubai before Christmas!
Since both of us won't be able to go home for this festive season, we'd like to travel somewhere and we'll be off to Dubai soon!
I would love to go to Ski Dubai, The Ferrari World and visit The Dubai Mall.
I am still checking some more places to go to especially that it will be winter soon.
The past two weeks are really tiring at work.
Describing them as stressful is an understatement.
I badly need a few days rest with no phone calls, no emails, no commercials (umm, distractions I mean).
Dear December, please come earlier!
Xoxo,
Joana
