Thanks for the tips on the resolution jeans, my jeans twin, and I'm always open to new pairings. White pants and my cream ones, too, always make me feel good. </p> <p>Firecracker, now, YOU, make me laugh! I only packed three jackets for this short trip and the leather moto and cream jacket were out, so Helmut's sweatshirt had to come fish with me. </p> <p>Caro and Deborah, Thank you, my lovelies, for enjoying my fashion and my fish. </p> <p>Shevia, I'm so happy you like #5; it is a most comfortable, lightweight dress and I wore it to friends' home for a dinner party. It's easy-peasy. </p> <p>Jackie, Yes, attitude means everything in my world and so happy you see that, which makes me know that's how you live! Helmut Lang kept me comfy while fishing *smile*. I hope Uniqlo comes to you soon. At first, I didn't "get it," but some basics really work for me. I'll post a fantastic striped shirt, from the Ines de la Fressange line that I wore and loved next week. </p> <p>Sveta, Hello my jeans twin (triplets with Suz) and glad you like the fish photo. I'd never done it before and doing things for the first time makes me squeal with joy. There were sound effects with it, too! I "know" you look amazing in your "cropped" version of the resolution skimmers. They feel great, don't they!</p> <p>abc and Maneera, thank you, both; I really am enjoying what I have in my closet. </p> <p>Sarah, you sweet leftie fashion sister, your words touched me so incredibly and, yes, we'd be awesome friends. I see a smiley face and love the idea of a microphone with musical notes, too, since I once had this idea that a group of us could karaoke serenade the Rolling Stones "Angie" to Angie at some future meetup. </p> <p>Thank you, Gemmy Rachy. I don't know about stopping traffic, but I may have stopped a hummingbird for a moment in the backyard. </p> <p>Joyce, thanks so much. </p> <p>Echo, thanks and you wild love the Angel Inn, since you live in WI. Here's the link: www.<a href="http://angelinns.com" rel="nofollow">http://angelinns.com</a><br /> Kathy and Dave are such wonderful people and hosts. If you go, please say hi for me. </p> <p>AJ and Diane, my Seattle meetup sisters, thank you and it's been fun making a few style changes this year. Hope to see you both again. </p> <p>Linda, yes, I'm about 5'4" or 5'3-1/2", if I'm slouching and not watching my posture. You will love retirement. </p> <p>Shannon and Texstyle, I appreciate your comments here and am loving what's in my closet.</p> <p>Diana, thanks, and you'll look beautiful in that brighter turquoise shade. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-birthday-suits-a-gemini-likes-variety#post-1507472 Wed, 17 Jun 2015 16:01:03 +0000 Diana 1507472@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy birthday, Vicki!&nbsp; Your little trip sounds like so much fun!&nbsp; You are gorgeous as usual in all your outfits, but 2-4 is a standout for me.&nbsp; Love that seafoam jacket so much.&nbsp; (And hmm, I might have to copy although my leather jacket is a much brighter turquoise...) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-birthday-suits-a-gemini-likes-variety#post-1507366 Wed, 17 Jun 2015 13:37:37 +0000 texstyle 1507366@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Birthday Vicki!&nbsp; You looked great in every outfit - and also looked like you had a wonderful time on your trip.

I have no idea how I did that.</p> <p>ETA after refreshing my screen it is a smiley again. Wow. Maybe it's a left handed thing. Sometimes you never know how something is going to turn out! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-birthday-suits-a-gemini-likes-variety#post-1507164 Wed, 17 Jun 2015 03:10:32 +0000 SarahTheWhite 1507164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am so glad that you has such a special birthday week!

That is such a special thing... I know that this is only a virtual sort of world, but the you that exists in my mind from how I see you here is someone I know I would love in real life.

I cannot stand how simply adorable you look in the fishing picture - my word! You look totally gorgeous in other pictures too of course but the fishing one is my fav!<br />I also caved in and got the resolution jeans but&nbsp; - alas - they are REALLY cropped on me. :-(<br />"birthday week" - I like it. Much more fun than one day. I am so jealous of those whose birthdays come for warm months when activities can be more varied. Not much to do in the frozen month of December here in Canada...although we can always escape to somewhere warm I think...</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-birthday-suits-a-gemini-likes-variety#post-1507147 Wed, 17 Jun 2015 02:55:40 +0000 jackiec 1507147@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Birthday (belated) Vicki!! You are truly inspirational and a joy here on YLF. I love your posts and happy attitude so much!</p> <p>How special to go fishing! My first thought was - Helmut Lang goes fishing???! And he does it so well! You look so cute in that photo with your hat and cons. Love it so much. And all of your other outfits are amazing. I adore that Halogen scarf on you. And you rock the boatnecks like nobody's business. I'm taking notes! I sure wish we had a Uniqlo here in Canada. I'm seeing lots of great things from there on the forum.</p> <p>Blessings for the year ahead! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-birthday-suits-a-gemini-likes-variety#post-1507142 Wed, 17 Jun 2015 02:49:01 +0000 Jaime 1507142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy birthday Vicki!

Happy birthday, Vicki! So, first off, I had to smile at your fishing outfit. It looks perfect for the outing, and then I read that the jacket is Helmut Lang! Ha hahaha! Designer fishing wear--who knew?<br />You look equally great in jeans and in your fab dresses, and with your hair longer as well as shorter. And now I want to go to that beautiful spot in Wisconsin! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-birthday-suits-a-gemini-likes-variety#post-1507050 Wed, 17 Jun 2015 00:05:31 +0000 UmmLila (Lisa) 1507050@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy Birthday, Vicki. You may think you're channeling Angie, but I think you've taken some of her great ideas and really made them your own! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-birthday-suits-a-gemini-likes-variety#post-1507044 Tue, 16 Jun 2015 23:53:12 +0000 Suz 1507044@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy birthday, Vicki! You are 100% stunning in every one of these outfits. I love the repetition of blue and white in these very different looks. You look wonderful in "Angie's" jacket -- it's so soft and feminine.</p> <p>Those Resolution jeans are brilliant for summer wear, I think. I got a pair, too. They work really well with the striped top.&nbsp;</p> <p><b>ADORE</b> your white jeans outfit. And the dresses are lovely on you also. I notice you are channelling Angie again with a turquoise bag and blue dress. Rock on!&nbsp;</p> <p>Thanks for the photos of that so-gracious B&amp;B. And now, I hope you got to eat some of that fish! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-birthday-suits-a-gemini-likes-variety#post-1507043 Tue, 16 Jun 2015 23:52:20 +0000 Vicki 1507043@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, Deb, we had it on Monday; it was good, however, I'm still a huge salmon lover most of all! &nbsp;Miss you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-birthday-suits-a-gemini-likes-variety#post-1507040 Tue, 16 Jun 2015 23:46:36 +0000 deb 1507040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Happy birthday! Your outfits are wonderful and your hair looks tab. The B&amp;B is lovely. Did you eat the fish? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-birthday-suits-a-gemini-likes-variety#post-1507033 Tue, 16 Jun 2015 23:40:17 +0000 Vicki 1507033@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's been a little over a week since I celebrated my birthday, and I can't actually recall what I wore on that day, so I'll share with you a few outfits I wore during my birthday week, which was kept simple and casual, just the way I like it.</p> <p>A short three-day trip to Green Lake, WI had me lake trout fishing and I've enclosed a photo of this "adventure." &nbsp;This was my first time and it was a lot of work to reel up a 24" fish, as a left-handed person, with a right-handed fishing reel. &nbsp;You'll also see a few photos of me channeling Angie, who is my ongoing and eternal inspiration in my now-most-favorite Banana Republic moto jacket, because it's so soft and luscious.</p> <p>1 Helmut Lang black zip jacket, American Eagle grey jeans (*waving" at Marley and Rae), white Cons, Uniqlo navy tee, blue hat bought in Provence over 10 years ago.<br />2-4 Banana Republic light blue leather moto (so soft!), AE jeans (again), J. Crew navy and white striped tee, green Born flats, Halogen scarf (yes, I eventually took off the unsightly tag). &nbsp;I wore a different top in 3 &amp; 4.<br />5 Blue silk Amanda Uprichard dress, white Vince Camuto cotton blazer, Cow-print Okalas.<br />6 J. Crew red and white striped tee, black Leith pants, trying on GAP 1969 resolution jeans (which I took home)<br />7-8 Boden blue and cream sleeveless print dress, J. Crew cream denim jacket, Vince Camuto Eliana sandals.<br />9 Playing with red lipstick and wearing black Vince tee and white Banana Republic jeans<br />10 I am now a Uniqlo fan and love this Ines de la Fressange linen jacket.<br />11-15 Photos of the B&amp;B.<br />16 One more of the jacket and one of my Uniqlo purchases.</p> <p>Thank you for letting me share my newly-minted age for 2015 with you and I'm always happy to celebrate here on YLF.</p>
