Awkward and Awesome Thursday

Hello Thursday!
One day closer to a long festive weekend.
Awkward:
  • Going to the Lady Bits doctor.
  • Not realizing someone had spilled honey on the counter and putting my cell phone right in it. 
  • Draining a pot of pasta and having the boiling hot water splash onto your shirt.  I still have a red mark on my torso from the burn.
  • Your dog pooing the smelliest, stinkiest poo ever in the middle of Petsmart.  
  • Realizing that you watched season 5 of a TV show before you watched season 3 & 4.
 
 Awesome:
  • Darius Rucker finally came out with a new album.  Check it out!!
  • The magnolias are starting to bloom.
  • Son2 cooking 3 meals for us this week.  Coconut Shrimp, Pork Wellington and Pot Roast.
  • Getting RX sunglasses
  • Finding my long lost EOS lemon lip balm in an a purse I hadn't used since last summer.  The lemon flavor is the only one I know that  has SPF.
 
I wanted to showcase this fabulous purple statement necklace,
 so I went pretty subdued with the rest of the outfit. 
 A stripe dress is always a good thing
 and 
pairing it with the cropped white denim jacket just gives it that little extra something.
 Of course I had to pull out my rarely worn purple watch.

Let's hear if you had an awesome or awkward week in the comments!

Well since purple is my favorite color I LOVE your necklace and watch.

Awkward moment this week-going to a swim team meeting. We were the new people and everyone else knew everyone. They were all nice, but when we walked in they all stared at us! Heather

Love the outfit!

Akward moment was having my dausghters' eye balloon up to the size of a golf ball due to sinuses & my son getting wrongfully suspended for a day at school on the same day! Maybe not awkward, more like disturbing and draining! Hopefully the weekend will be a breeze! :)

I own the same dress - what a cute way to style it! The purple accents are great. I might have to copy-cat you. :)

Cute dress! Random fact- the video for Darius' song "Wagon Wheel" was shot in a town in my county. If there hadn't been a torrential downpour the day he shot it, I would've driven to try to meet him and the Duck Dynasty guys! I guess I can file that under awesome. ;-)
