Happy Birthday, Astrid! Count me in as another fan of your wardrobe searches, your holidays, and your photos of Berlin. Glad to hear you enjoyed your day with family and friends.

Thank you very much, everyone! For the congratulations and the kind words.

I had a great weekend. We went to the Christmas Market yesterday with the family and I managed to make some time for a meet up with another old friend too.

Happy birthday, Astrid! Your style, and the kindness and thoughtfulness that come through in your posts, are really inspirational.

Happiest of the happies, Astrid! I hope you had a great time with family and friends!

Happy Belated Birthday gorgeous Astrid! You are my pixie cut hero ^_^

Seconding Inge. I know you'll have a happy birthday with your family!

I'm ridiculously late in my birthday wishes Astrid but still had to pop in.

Your ability to look stylish and find your perfect item on a budget is nothing short of inspiring. Every item in your closet fits you perfectly - both physically and for your style. I don't think there's too many who can say that.

And then there's your bubbly, positive and ever so kind personality

Wishing you the best of birthdays Astrid.

Happy Birthday, belatedly! Hope is was fab and the super hairstyle was a hit.
I really like reading about how you carefully select items to build your wardrobe and have it "grow up" with you.

Happy Birthday! It sounds like you had a fabulous day with family and friends.

Happy belated birthday! I love your posts! xo

Thanks again, everyone! Oh and the hair was a hit with my mum and my sister, my brothers couldn't bother to comment. My dad didn't say much, but I know he prefers longer hair. My friends all thought it was great.

I'm so, so late, but my birthday wishes, however belated, are heartfelt, because I love your posts, Astrid, and I certainly love and adore your new haircut. Wishing you much happiness in the year ahead. ^_^
