Happy happy birthday Anna Seeing your amazing outfits on the forum and reading your intelligent, witty, and honest comments is a wonderful thing. And getting to do these things in person? Even better! I'm so glad to have met you several times now, and as Angie said your exuberant laugh is infectious and I love it. I'm also glad that you're close by, because that means I'll get to see you many more times. You are a constant style inspiration, and I always appreciate hearing about designer tidbits from you that I wouldn't otherwise. Plus seeing them in action, on a Real Person who lives in my climate, is a treat. I hope you have an awesome birthday weekend (because, let's face it, you deserve the whole weekend!) filled with only the yummiest chocolates, wine, food, and of course company. Cheers for an even better upcoming year!

Happy Birthday, Anna! You awe me with your fashion sense. I hope you have a fab bday celebration with family and friends!

Happy Birthday, Anna! You are amazing and YLF royalty. I love your creativity and pushing the boundaries. May this be the year that you take that trip to Australia and that you find Mr. Right.

Happy birthday, Anna!
I don't really know if this is true, but I feel like you put so much of yourself and your personality out there that I really know you from your posts. You are very raw and real and you and I appreciate your vulnerability. To me, you feel like my older sister's cool friend who secretly makes me squeel inside if she throws me a casual "cute shoes."

I'd love to meet you one day, because I have a very clear idea of you in my head, but I could have you all wrong. I hope you have the happiest of birthdays yet. There's a comfort and contentedness that seems to be washing over you in the last year or so and I hope that you feel that and it continues to grow.
signed,
not a stalker, even if that post just sounded like I am

Wishing you a fantastic, fun-filled birthday all weekend long! You rock!

Anna, I'm late to this, but I hope you had a truly wonderful birthday! You are not only a style star in my eyes, but also an all-around ultra-cool person who deserves all the best. I hope you are celebrating in ultimate style!

Dearest Queen Anna, your amazing fashion sense is matched only by your big, big heart! I hope you have the best birthday ever and I can't wait to give you a belated birthday hug in person in a couple of weeks! #ifyoudidntexistwedhavetoinventyou

Happy birthday Anna! I realized so early how much I would value your presence on the forum because you represent the risk and passion that are essential to the world of fashion. While the rest of us are figuring out how to dress warmly for the plane or roll our pants or find great sneakers, you are picking our your next tiara. Long may you reign. Xxxx

Happy birthday Anna!

I too have always thought your gorgeous smile ups your already beyond impressive style quotient even further, and now I am super curious to hear that infectious laugh of you in person. (I adore people who like to laugh and are not shy about it;-)
I love your "sense of self": the way you know exactly what you love and want, your love for and knowledge of designers, and how you creatively bring it all together in your outfits, putting together looks that often contain an element of surprise (by which I mean, there is always some detail I wouldn't have thought of myself, but when I see it I go "yes, brilliant!"), and that clearly show how much fun you have with fashion.

I can't wait to meet you in Seattle, and hope you are having a marvelous birthday weekend and that you are feeling celebrated and spoilt.
