Images that convey the fantasy you?

catgirl

I was deleting photos from my phone and came across this image I'd saved which totally speaks to the bada$$ I am in my head.

Do you have an image that conveys the fantasy you? (And yes, I know some of us have more fevered imaginary lives than others!). If so post it here!

There she is...My fantasy me living in New York City, sleeping with JFK jr., walking an adorable dog in very casual, classic stylings.

Love it! Thanks for indulging me. And good style icon.

My impossible fantasy life is Grace Kelly in Rear Window. As far from me as possible but so appealing. And also lounging insouciantly!

This look is so many things I love from the hat to the pinstripe jacket to the dark red patent oxfords. I might even try to recreate it - but with full length pants so my ankles don't freeze.

Una, I love the badass you.

Kary, I can absolutely see you doing that look and perhaps with even more elegance.

Wearing YSL Le Smoking in Paris or anywhere really. Without the real cigarette. Fun!

Caro, I'm having déjà vu with your picture - have I asked this question before? I love that image!

Dianthus, so cute sporty tomboy. Yours is totally doable!

OMG, Caro, I love that one too.
How about this one? Doesn't she look like she is thinking, "don't even think it"

Oh man, Kate Hepburn. I went to her college and she spoke at our 100th commencement - so amazing to hear her in person.

Kiwigal, DH and I were just at a restaurant and the picture on the wall of our booth was that very picture! Which sent DH into a nostalgic teenage hormonal stupor. He liked Jacqueline Smith, but I always thought Kate Jackson was the best because she was the smartie. We argued about it the whole dinner.

So their names were Sabrina, Kelly, Chris and Jill, right? But which was which?

Sabrina - Kate Jackson
Kelly - Jacqueline Smith
Jill- Farrah Fawcett
Chris - Cheryl Ladd (came into to replace Farrah!)

Yes and Sabrina was the smart one!!
I also love Katherine Hepburn and almost posted a pic of her from The Philadelphia Story, in her pool cover up. So elegant.

Really fun thread, Una. And just what I needed for a bit of relaxation on this Friday afternoon. Your images are you to a tee. Brilliant. Shedev, Karie, Dianthus and Caro are spot on with their images too - at least - that's how I perceive them in my head.

I couldn't use a single image - but these do tell a story:

Angie, YAY! I love your pics. The fawn! Of course multiples are okay - and yours are so heartwarming and evocative.

I think many of us have several sides. Mine does not depict the maternal homebody who will bawl at Disney films, hand feed a sick animal or spend an afternoon playing Clue with my kiddo. That's why it's a fantasy image though!

Welcome to my fantasy life where I am a guitar-slinging, motorcycle-riding badass. I am, but this is elevated to a major fantasy level.

Glam and fun!

Also Florence Welch for boho*/romantic side.

I'm not feeling Barbarella style like I did on my 20s and 30s.

* I would wear pants w/ Anna Sui coat.

I always find myself watching what Kira on Continuum is wearing (besides the CPS suit, well, maybe even the suit if I were in 'a mood'). And I always liked the sexy beach look mixed with badass of Fiona on Burn Notice.
