Life has been busy, but I did read this thread straight away (and have the roaming data charges to back it up ) and I am truly touched at all the wonderful comments here. I thoroughly enjoyed, and continue to enjoy, reading everyone's lovely thought out birthday wishes. Bonus hugs and thanks to those who know me in person, your comments were extra special to me &lt;3</p> <p>As Angie mentioned I was on an Alaskan cruise the week of my birthday. On the day we were in Ketchikan and did the seaplane flight that Karie recommended (awesome!), followed by cake which hubby had delivered to our room (see below!), and a delicious dinner at the ship's French restaurant. I wore my white sequin tank, ivory cardigan, black skinny pants, black studded flats, and an armful of bangles (also see below for dinner+a wonky photo, but that's what I've got handy).</p> <p>Rachy, I'm pumped that we share the same birthday! Hope your day was fabulous, and for that matter, all the time since then and all the time beyond :)</p> <p>Angie, the YLF birthday threads are truly, truly a treat. Thank you for your amazing continued enthusiasm and support!! I promise that, even though I haven't been on the forum, I have been representing YLF well. Along with Team White, Team White-on-White, and of course taking care of business in the Realm of Modern 70s as usual </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/happy-birthday-aida-rachy/page/2#post-940973 Fri, 24 May 2013 19:39:56 +0000 Inge 940973@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy birthday you two gorgeous ladies!!</p> <p>Aida, you mix current items with your beloved '70s vibe like no other. I've often wondered how you do it, but each and everyone of your outfits always feels completely individual and unique. You have flair to spare, I love your fabulous shorter do, and&nbsp;you have an inner confidence that shines through in every photo. Thank you also for your always insightful comments and spot on advice. And high five to another lass who is enamored with long shorts (and rocks the look!)!</p> <p>Rachylou, you are an individual in every sense of the word too. Your self-deprecating sense of humour and the quick and witty way in which you analyze style (and many other) situations often has me in stitches and nodding in agreement (because of the wise thoughts in your message). You know <i>exactly</i> what you want, and your style reflects that. Love it! Plus you are a women of words (I agree, writing talent in spades)&nbsp;who loves to read (I like that in a woman;-)</p> <p>I hope you are both having an amazing day and are being spoilt rotten!!</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/happy-birthday-aida-rachy/page/2#post-940972 Fri, 24 May 2013 19:37:56 +0000 Kristin L 940972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy birthday Rachy and Aida! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/happy-birthday-aida-rachy/page/2#post-940949 Fri, 24 May 2013 19:09:55 +0000 pil 940949@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Birthday Aida and Rachylou! </p> <p>Aida, I always enjoy your WIW's and the thought that goes into them.

It's been a pleasure meeting you on more than one occasion. Your photography skills astound me.</p> <p>Happy Birthday Rachylou! I love the insites you offer on my outfits. It tickles me that my conservative outfit weirded you out a bit. You keep me on my fashion toes. Plus your archane knowledge of fashion is amazing. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/happy-birthday-aida-rachy/page/2#post-940878 Fri, 24 May 2013 16:30:51 +0000 CocoLion 940878@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida, you were one of the first people I noticed on YLF. &nbsp;I remember you did a self-challenge where you wore a different combination every day for one year, and posted it. &nbsp;I was so impressed with this effort and the styles you created, and when you said "I learned there's a lot I can do with my existing wardrobe" (or something like that) it really resonated! &nbsp;So happy birthday you gorgeous- young-thing-who-is-wise-beyond-her-years-and-makes-her-own-beer!</p> <p>RachyLou, like Angie said you have a way with words and sense of humor like no other. &nbsp;Although I haven't caught as many WIWs as I would like to, when I do, I am struck by your original sense of style. &nbsp;You are a creative being through and through! &nbsp;And I would love to hear more about your Berkeley upbringing and your baking career. &nbsp;Happy Birthday! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/happy-birthday-aida-rachy/page/2#post-940868 Fri, 24 May 2013 16:11:52 +0000 rae 940868@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Aida, I hope your day was lovely, filled with fashion, baseball, beer, love, and laughs. You always inspire and challenge me to try new things on my body type. Slouchy pants, light colors, short hair,&nbsp;even a little dab o' the 80s. I'm so privileged to have met you at Shoptoberfest. Someday, we will finally catch a game together. :)</p> <p>Rachy, my very favorite waif! I love that you do your own thing with such flair and panache. You have such a refreshing perspective, and your comments often make me laugh out loud. I hope your day was fun and unique, just like you (and maybe included a little bit of comfort gin). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/happy-birthday-aida-rachy/page/2#post-940866 Fri, 24 May 2013 16:08:52 +0000 rachylou 940866@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's my birthday now, so I can officially look and say Thank You All! I admire all of you and wish I could dress just the same! (I do. I'm a gemini.)</p> <p>Also: Happy Birthday, Aida!! Lucky b-day girl on a cruise! You are always so smart, in insight as well as style. Positively brilliant in your ability to do polished and funky at the same time - and a punk girl at that too </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/happy-birthday-aida-rachy/page/2#post-940808 Fri, 24 May 2013 14:46:19 +0000 Angie 940808@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachy, I meant every word and the pleasure is all mine. You are very deserving of this praise!! Thank YOU for your awfully kind words too.</p> <p>Aida is on a cruise but will chime in when she can.</p> <p>I am off to work with a client for the rest of the day, but will chime in again much latter. Have a beautiful birthday ladies! I still want to know all about the cake. xoxo </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/happy-birthday-aida-rachy/page/2#post-940760 Fri, 24 May 2013 14:01:27 +0000 Lisa 940760@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Birthday, I hope it's a fab day for both of you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/happy-birthday-aida-rachy/page/2#post-940758 Fri, 24 May 2013 13:55:59 +0000 Anonymous 940758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Birthday to two of YLF's most inspiring members.
