I recently had someone leave a comment asking why I always smile
in my photos because I look "ridiculous."
So here is a photo of me trying not to smile.
I think I look hungry. Or judgemental.
So here is me smiling! Because I like to smile.
And my yellow H&M bag demands a sunny disposition gosh darn it!
I'll take it a step further and post this super non-serious photo.
I can't help it...I love how I feel in my new white Paige skinnies!
Sweater - Banana Republic
Jeans - Paige Denim (Purchase HERE)
Watch - Michael Kors (Purchase HERE)
Bag - H&M (Purchase HERE)
Bracelets - Nordstrom and Saks Fifth Avenue
Necklace - Vintage
RIng - H&M
Heels - Jessica Simpson
I'll end with a quote from Buddy the Elf,
"I just like to smile! Smiling's my favorite."
Moments of the Week:
The Moment Where I Kinda Love My Dogs:
I had a pinched nerve in my neck this week. Super painful. So I would lay down on our hardwood floor to try to get some relief. And this is what happens...
Puppy kisses take away all the pain. :)
The Moment Where I Kinda Dislike My Dogs:
Long day at work...
Some kid dropped his sloppy joe on my new light pink suede heels.
A teacher guessed my age to be seven years more than I am.
And I packed a poopy lunch (my own fault...but I can still feel sorry for myself).
Looking forward to coming home, I open my door to this lovely sight:
And yes...it almost looks as though they are congratulating
each other on a job well done. Jerks.
Thanks so much for stopping by and being a part of my "ridiculous smiling blog" :) I love hearing from you, whether it be in the comments, on twitter or via email. You quite simply...make me smile!
XO - Marion
PS - And yes...I deleted the comment. Go spread your negativity elsewhere :)

ah, those haters! I hate them, haha. You look amazing when you smile. I can only dream of such a bright, white, pretty smile! and my goodness, your dogs are two bad boys fo sho, haha!
AND I am rally really really really jaelous of that bag. I want it too but am on a serious shopping ban! x
People are so rude...if they don't like you or your blog, why are they reading? I don't get it... And your smile is gorgeous by the way! My puppy chewed a hole in our rug the other day...so not cool!
Girl, you're gorgeous, smiling or not. I'm sorry that you even had to look at a comment like that :-( People can be so mean. Keep smiling, keep shining knowing you can always count on meee....for surrreee....that's what friends are fooooor. Sorry, couldn't help myself, I saw Bridesmaids, again, last night. :-)
Your doggies are so cute, but I would have freaked out at the sight...then I would have looked up at the BEAUTIFUL view from your place and that would have definitely calmed me down...GORGEOUS!
Oh, and are those shoes in stores now? I'm dying for a pair of silver shoes! The entire outfit is super cute. I love.

Oh no!! not that awful smiling again!! "Why does she have to look so... sooooo... happy all the time??"
Goodness, people are so lovely. If it makes you feel better, people constantly tell me i look angry. But thats my "regular" face, lol. Well, you look lovely and those jeans make me want to give white pants another try. And what cute puppies!! They left you a gift! Have a great weekend!
Naww, you have a pretty smile, people are poop sometimes!
Dogs really can be jerks but they have the cutest little faces!

Cool bag! Love the color<3

Big hug to you all and have a great weekend!!!

Keep smiling girl! I love it!! And holy cow to your view. I think I just invited myself to Denver :-) Have a great weekend Marion!
So glad you're not listening to the haters...you have a gorgeous smile, Marion! (I always smile in my photos too!) Your doggies making that mess reminds me of mine getting into the garbage this week. They're so cute yet so evil! Have a great weekend girl!

Echoing previous comments that whoever left that comment is ridiculous. Besides, it's harder to frown and who wants to frown in pictures?
My cats have left similar messes (even cardboard, one of my cats loooovvvess cardboard boxes).
Have a great weekend, and keep smiling!
Good for you! You look fabulous. Love those jeans!

I find that I look ridiculous when I DON'T smile in my pictures. I'm not a model, I don't have the "smile with your eyes" thing down, so I am just going to smile because I'm having fun with it.
Love your smile, Marion. And that view from your window....stunning! Your puppies are so naughty, hehe!
You have such a gorgeous smile! Don't ever stop! :D I always feel ridiculous when I try not to smile for pictures
Smile away!!!!! Some people are just mean...maybe someone was mean to them once! Love the outfit, looks "cool". In style, but also with this temp. heating up, the less on, the better.
Oh, and those puppies, so very cute when being bad!!! My kitty can be creative with a roll of bathroom tissue. She has so much fun, we don't mind!
well that was rude... I like your blog + your pics + your smile so keep at it
BTW Lovely yellow bag
What?? how ridiculous of him/her!! Don't ever pay heed to such insane people, just pity them that they need some kind of serious medication!!
Love your bright yellow bag and the color of your blouse is so soothing and springy!!
Yay for you deleting it, and YAY for smiling!! You have a gorgeous smile, and I - for one - MUCH prefer the fashion photos that include a smile!
supercute sweater! love that color on you!

OMG some people just have to say SOMETHING all the time, even if it's not nice. Good riddance to them! You look great, and smiling is a GOOD thing!

As if someone said that to you! You have a gorgeous smile, and that outfit definitely deserves a smile :)
Love, Elizabeth xx

Dahling....you look MARVELOUS when you smile! I love it! I love you!
And for sure those boys had been giving each other high fives all day after destroying that box.
Happy weekend!

Keep spreading joy by smiling.
In my part of the world winter has not left yet, so white pants must wait a little longer.
What a gorgeous Spring outfit! Keep showing off that beautiful smile! This also makes me happy I only have cats now and no dogs, ha ha : )
Why do people feel the need to be jerks? I think you have a great smile, keep taking those beautiful pictures.
The picutre of your dogs made me laugh. I have two furry babies at home who keep me on my toes.
I love that you smile in your pics! Anyway, doesn't that person know that a girl's best accessory is her smile?
I came home to a similar sight the other day...my pups chewed through several dvd boxes and spread trash everywhere. Always an adventure.
Wow, why would anyone feel the need to tell you that? Sad.
I think you have a beautiful smile and I appreciate your upbeat vibe.
Love the outfit, too!
Um, I think you look great smiling! People are so rude sometimes. I'm sorry about your destructive doggies, gorgeous view out of your window though!

glad you deleted that negative nancy comment. we don't need any negativity here!!! i think your smile is gorgeous- just like everything else about you!
love your casual friday look- the BR sweater is such a pretty color :)
pups can be the WORST sometimes- sophie at a veryyy expensive shoe of mine as a puppy. still mourning their loss 2 years later..
have a great weekend girly XOXO
Haha I can't believe someone said that! They are obvs a hater because you have a very infectious smile! Goodness your puppies made a mess, I often wonder if I'm going to walk in on a similar seen but I think my dog may be too lazy haha
Sorry to hear you got negative comments. The mean people are called internet trolls for a reason.
Oh my goodness your dogs are so cute. I empathize about what you came home too. i woke up to the lovely surprise of seeing my new eye glasses destroyed by my lovely dog. :P
Hope you have a lovely weekend and KEEP SMILING your love lovely smile! :D
Smile away. Happy girls are the prettiest girls, at least according to Audrey Hepburn, and I think she knew what she was talking about.
Love the whole outfit, from top to bottom!
Wow, what a shitty thing for someone to say!! I am pissed off on your behalf! I think I look too serious and like I'm trying too hard when I don't smile. A smile is everyone's best feature! I applaud your honesty, but I think you should always smile!
GOOD FOR YOU!!! KEEP SMILING!!! I love to smile, it is a wonderful feeling! Have a wonderful Easter weekend! Charlotte.
Oh...I wish you would have put it on display! Was it anonymous? Cuz that just means "coward." I LOVE your smile...it is the perfect accessory to all your outfits. People can be cruel. So, yes...your smile is ridiculous...ridiculously AWESOME!!! :) Have a great holiday friend!
Your smile is your greatest accessory! I honestly LOVE your pics because of your smile, it radiates from within. "Keep Smiling and Carry On!"
Wow that is rude! I love the huge windows in your place and the gorgeous looking view.
I love that color! Would you say it's peach or salmon? There are so many "tones" of this color I have a hard time describing it. Your dogs are hilarious. I love your view too...where do you live?
I can't believe that someone actually said that! I think that you are so beautiful and your smile is GORGEOUS! LOVE your outfit and your view is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!! I don't think that I would ever leave!!
First of all......beautiful smile! One of the first things I noticed about you ;) Next...I love your dogs, and they do look like they're congratulating each other...So hilarious! Lol
oh my goodness people are so lame. seriously. im so happy that you are such a happy girl and your smile is contagious and you look beautiful! i just dont understand why people do that?! anyway, i hope that your weekend is going well darling!! keep smiling!!
x james
Better and Better ideas and style.
Smile always because you look amazing and so beautiful! Only bitter people find smiling ridiculous... let them go to their land of sadness, and don't stop brighten this world with your gorgeous smiles!!! :)
Good luck!

OMG.......what a HORRIBLE day...I'm so sorry! I can't believe tour dogs did that! RASCALS!!! Hope your weekend got better. Happy Easter:)
I know I'm a little late in the game here, but I just needed to ditto everything everyone here's said. You're beautiful, Marion, and every time I see one of your smiling pics I think, "Sheesh, look at that model! She makes school psychologists look good." ;) Seriously. Oh, and love the Buddy quote. Smiling's my favorite, too. :) ~kristin elia~
Amazing how some people need to tear others down, even anonymously, to feel good about themselves. I hate that you were the target of that, but glad that you're keeping on smiling!
You look gorgeous in that coral/peach color, by the way!
xo Elisabeth
I'm sorry someone wrote that, because I think you are beautiful and love it that you smile! Your smile is contagious and makes me smile too! It just brightens my day!
Love your blog and style too!
@ Rubies and Pearls - Thanks so much for your sweet comment. It just brightened my day :) XO
I love your smile! That's a huge reason why I love your blog because you are YOU and I can just tell that you are a fun happy person! (which obviously that commenter is NOT)
Sorry but I had to laugh at your dog picture only because I'm away on a trip this week and hubs just texted a similar picture of my dog who had eaten our couch and the remnants of it :( Those dogs. We still love them though :)
I feel your pain on the dogs...usually I come home to see mine have eaten a pair of my shoes, though, which, as you can imagine, equals double the frustration! And forget about the haters - you have a beautiful smile, nothing ridiculous about it!
Your smiling photos are one of the reasons I follow your blog! Keep it up!
