5 Moments of the Week:
Awkward Moment: It's 5:30 a.m. and I am on my way to take our dogs for their morning walk. We live in a high-rise in downtown Denver, so we need to take an elevator down 15 floors before we reach outside. Long story short: we have a puppy named Palmer...Palmer is still learning to control his bladder...there was a business man who greeted Palmer on the elevator...Palmer got excited...Palmer piddled all over his Gucci loafers.
Yes...I said Gucci. I know this for a fact because they guy said specifically, "Oh, your dog just pissed on my Gucci loafers." AWK-to-the-WARD!
Romantic Moment: While falling asleep my husband reaches for my hand and whispers, "How'd I get so lucky?" Sigh...:-)
Really? Moment: This one happened today and I'm still not sure what to think. A first grader told me that I look "just like" that P.E. teacher from Glee. Now I love Glee more than your average gay guy, but really??
Well...okay. I can see some resemblance...
but it wasn't the coolest thing I'd heard all day! LOL!
Embarrassing Moment: I had to drive a rental car on Tuesday. I needed coffee so I decided to pull into the drive-through at Starbucks. I waited 20 MINUTES and never thought to check where the controls were to roll down the windows. Picture me finally pulling up to the order sign and I am freaking out trying to find the window control button. The car ahead of me pulls forward and I freak out even more.
Then the worst case scenario happened. Someone honked at me. I am from Oregon...people don't honk in Oregon! I swear I whimpered as I jerked the wheel and drove away caffeine-free.
Happy Moment: Ok, this is going to sound lame. But honestly my happiest moment this week came when some of you left the most thoughtful and sweet comments. Yesterday I re-read some of them and I just smiled ear-to-ear because...well...they make my happy! So thank you!!
Have you had any "Moments of the Week"??

You have such great style - I love that your casual day is way more dressed up than anything I wear on a regular day lol.
The comment about Oregon is funny because no they don't honk but they will tailgate like nobody's business. My MIL lives in Rainier and always warns us about driving too fast when we visit her(apparently the cops are a little overzealous there) so of course I do the opposite and end up driving super slow. I don't know where that whole stereotype about Oregonians driving slow came from because they were all riding my bumper, Ha!

Love the color combo and the look, Marion! Your stories made me laugh and I don't think you look like Coach Beiste at all!
Love your outfit, the colors are perfect! Oh my goodness, can't believe you were told that you looked like the PE teacher! Seriously?! That couldn't be farther from the truth. Have a great weekend love!

That blazer is such a pretty color!
Haha about Palmer and the loafers! Oliver is almost a year and half old and despite being housebroken, he sprinkled the other day when he saw someone he hadn't seen in a while. It happens!
PS you do not have ANY resemblance to the Glee coach! :)

You look great - I like the blazer!

Super cute casual outfit! I love the colour of that blazer.
And your "really?" moment is hilarious because I don't see ANY resemblance to that glee character. At all.
The more I read your blog, the more adorable you become! Such a great sense of fashion and such a great personality! Gush gush gush....it's all mush and admiration! And btw...that has totally happened to me at a drive through...but I was just driving my husbands car...not a rental.
Thanks everyone for the reassurance that I don't really look much like the Glee coach. I actually love the actress and think she's beautiful in a certain way...but I don't know if that is the look I'm going for when I get dressed LOL!
Also, thanks so much for your sweet comments. Can you believe that blazer is less than $20!?! Great find at F21 :-)
XO - Marion
Love the outfit, and haha poor you, love those moments, so funny (and sad). following your blog. :)
The color of your blazer is gorgeous! I can't believe it is F21! Lmbo @ Palmer! Of all places for him to pee lol! I would have been mortified! And honey, you look nothing like that woman. Kids are so funny. You are gorgeous! -Dreama
Hmm, I know I commented already, but it's gone. Anyway, OMG the Starbucks story made me LOL. :) And no, you don't look like Glee coach AT ALL! You're adorable, as always!

Marion, you are so beautiful in your casual Friday, which if so much more put together than any Monday outfit I could do. You are truly a style inspiration my friend.
You look great Marion! I love the color of that blazer with those jeans. Your necklace is fabulous. I'm LOL at your puppy. At least the guy with the Gucci shoes had a great attitude about it. Ohhhh life! LOL

I love the color of that blazer! (and I don't think you look like the glee coach at all, lol)
Thanks for commenting on my blog! I love this outfit! I never know what do with pastels, but the grey jeans and heels make it feel more fun!
The great thing about 'moments of the week' is that we can forget about them now that it's the weekend :)

Awww.... caffeine free?!! That's so sad, but it sounds like how I would react too! Lol I love your hair up btw, and you bear no resemblance to that glee teacher believe me!!!
You are soooo funny!! I love your moments. :) My dogs would do that kind of thing too! I love your blazer so much. This is pretty dressy for casual Friday! (I really wish my work had casual Friday.)
I can relate to that "comments make me so happy" part. I have the same, I can't believe how great my readers can be, every time ♥ And big thanks to you for leaving a sweet comment! xoxo
OMG, these made me laugh! I love the romantic moment, so sweet! Love your pink blazer. It's a great color on you :) Thanks for visiting my blog!

Two things: First, am stalking your blog and absolutely falling in love. Come back to Portland and let's be friends :) Second, loving your comment about Portlanders and their non-honking. It's so true, we just sit in our car a stew (which is the nice way to put it).
