Today I am 28 years old. It isn't much of a milestone birthday or anything, but I'm excited anyways. I never understand people who don't care for birthdays. In my mind it's an excellent excuse for convincing everyone I know to sing karaoke with me and eat a ridiculous amount of cake. I like getting older. It makes me feel more comfortable in my own skin, wearing whatever the hell I please, and my relationships seem to become more and more meaningful. And weirdly I get carded at bars and restaurants more these days than I ever did when I was in my early 20's. Maybe the bangs give me eternal youth? Whatever it may be the bangs are here to stay, whether I'm 28 or 78. I feel like I'm only just getting warmed up for what's ahead. Here's to all the champagne and adventures ahead!

Oh yay! I get to be the first to wish you HAPPY BIRTHDAY on your blog!!!! I love getting older as well and coincidentally, I get carded more now too (and I just turned 30!!). Your style is impeccable and I love reading your blog. Enjoy your day today.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY to one of the loveliest ladies I know. I am so glad that you are one of my closest lady friends, and I can't wait to spend all weekend with you. Vintage Expo, Dinner, Tight Pants, and Vintage Selling? So excited.
Happy Birthday dear! I have to admit I raised an eyebrow, you certainly don't look 28! I definitely get what you mean about feeling more comfortable in your own skin, and yes.. I still get ID ridiculous amounts too! Fringe Power! ;-)
Have a wonderful day,

Ps. And of course - I love your outfit!
Happy Birthday!!
Red suits you so well Ashley, and that is one brilliant shirt :)

Happy birthday, Ashley! I couldn't agree more with your comments on growing older. I've never felt better, and since people are consistently shocked by my age, I must be doing something right! ;)
Hope this is your best year yet! Rock it out at karaoke!

Such a great outfit full of the best colors. I often like to mix red and mustard together, even when people call me "ketchup and mustard" Pfft! Have a Happy Birthday! And I think people who don't care about their birthdays are as strange as people who dislike cats!
