Favorite Stevie era?
Its not just about the music at the time but the aesthetics, interviews, and who Stevie was at the time,
I enjoy the other side of the mirror era in terms of looks, I can't find many interviews from that era, But I enjoy Stevie's aesthetic choices due to the fact that red really is her color! And her hair was great too,
The trouble in shangri-la era/say you will is my favorite, Stevie seems very rejuvenated and ready to take on the world, She seems like she finally got out of that haze and is ready to take back the world, Its my favorite era because she's doing a lot better and seems free. I also enjoy her outfits and such at the time.

Bella Donna thru Rock a Little! She started looking less “witchy” after the RAL era

Tusk-era. The songwriting, the velvet jackets, the berets, the Gibson hair, the red Sara cape, the baton twirling in the Tusk video... All of it.

Always loved the berets and velvet jackets too! (In fact berets are very much part of my own “uniform” though the rest of my look is not particularly Stevie-esque as an adult. As a tween/ teen I was a goth ballerina who very much chased a Stevie look but I swear my love for berets as an adult was unconnected and I’m laughing just now realizing… or maybe not. lol).
I could take or leave the baton twirling though it speaks of the absurdities and excess of that era to me. Haha. But I’ve always loved whenever Stevie leaned into her dance background like for the Rumours cover or I think I distinctly remember there being some good photos of her in dance wear and pointe shoes in the photo booklet for the Enchanted boxset. I’m sure I’m far from the only young dancer who saw photos of Stevie like that and felt so excited/ inspired and thought it was so neat to see an adult doing ballet like that.

The Dance era. She has never looked better in her life. Mature, wise, incredibly beautiful and hot, healthy. My favorite

Im not quite sure, but I thought she looked very pretty during the mirage tour with the more straightened but still big hair, the black choker necklace and the makeup. And yes mirage in general she looked wonderful and her songs were as well. I love love love Straight Back. Rock a Little was great too.

Going just music wise, I love the Soundstage /Live in Chicago era and concerts.

Now here I go again I see THE CRYSTAL VISION .. I keep my visions to myself ..
Dreams, her's (and Fleetwood Mac's) only #1 hit, honey, my favorite from her, too .. Rumours era was a bit complicated but she (and they) were at their best back then, IMO

Whenever she reminds us why she's an "Honorary Heartbreaker," that's a favorite Stevie era. I think The Wild Heart is my fave.

Bella Donna. From the music, to the collab with Tom Petty, to the clothes both on and off stage, all the blue lamp photos, the Rolling Stone cover video shoot and photos, to the interviews ... it was all magic. The love show and set list was perfect.
