YOU In The City: 1st signs of Spring!


The last couple of days have given me hope that Spring may actually be close!  I enjoyed a gorgeous Sunday late afternoon/early evening on an outdoor patio in Lakeview with friends!!! ...of course as soon as the sun began to set we jetted to an indoor table by the fireplace... but if cocktails on a patio aren't the first Chicago sign of Spring, I don't know what is! :)

With Spring in the air, colors on the street are starting to brighten up and fun printed dresses are making appearances! Wool coats are getting switched up for cropped bombers, and I've even seen some sandals walking the sidewalks (maneuvering around the snow piles)!

As much as I would like to say I found these Spring style trends walking the streets of Chicago, I have to admit these were pulled from Pintrest due to the roller-coaster of weather happening here.  I've had to resort to online style gawking, for now...but as soon as people are finally able to start rocking some of their on trend looks for Spring with out having to cover them all up for warmth I'll be posting my favs staight from the streets!  

Alas, for now, here are a few of my favorite stylish looks to rock out and about this Spring!
Floral prints with a watercolor affect!  Gorg!





Chunkerific gold chains!  Everywhere!





Geometric prints, army jackets and cuffs!  <3






Slouchy pants with heals, black, white & a pop of leopard!   Adore!






Keep the color palate simple, rock pastels, and own a classy maxi!





Get inspired and start rocking your own Spring Style In City!
