Your Killer avant-garde style is sublime, and I DO hope that we see more of your insatiable fabness in 2015. You wear shades of ink and grey with the best of them, and rock those asymmetrical and drapey silhouettes like no other. I love the way dark neutrals work with your silver grey hair, sparkly eyes, glossy lipstick, and naughty smile. OOOOH that naughty smile comes through in your writing as well as your style. It’s strong as well as gentle, and full of character which makes you even more amazing.

I love your classic ladylike grace and modern enlightened outlook on life. I love the sense of control that accompanies your quirkier pieces - which is in itself an interesting juxtaposition. Rock on.

But what I like most about you Caro, is your succinct wisdom, sense of humour, and impeccable manners. You cut straight to the chase with few words in a diplomatic, intelligent, genuine, kind and honest way. Always lighthearted, and always diffusing instead of escalating a potential problem. You are calm and uncomplicated, which is a rare and beautiful thing. You are never rude and defensive when you disagree - another enviable trait. These are powerful character traits, that are an inspiration to us all. Thank you for allowing us to learn from you by setting the respectful and strong example.

And like I mentioned last birthday, it does not go unnoticed that you comment on every blog post and support this community regularly, and with lots of heart. We are grateful for your loyal contribution, sweet compliments and highly positive attitude. THANK YOU for enriching YLF in a special way. We hope you have a brilliant birthday, and celebrate extra wonderful you.

love Angie
