Happy Monday, and thanks so much for stopping by! Spring seems to be around the corner and I couldn’t be more excited! We had such a wonderful weekend and the weather was just perfect (we had almost 60 degrees which made me jump for joy!). You have to understand – when we got back from Europe almost 2 weeks ago we were greeted by heavy snow, and I can’t tell you enough how happy I am that it’s completely gone now. I’m not much of a winter person. The part of Germany I grew up in rarely had cold and snowy winters so, you can probably understand my struggle with Chicago winters.
Anyhow, let’s talk fashion, shall we? Today I’m wearing a banded crop top and comfy waist pants from Bebe. I’ve always been a fan of pairing a crop top with high-waisted pants – there’s something really chic about it without having to bare it all! So, get ready for spring and grab your favorite stomach-revealing tops and start mix and matching, or opt for matching sets! Either way you’ll be a show stopper!
As always, thanks much for reading & have a wonderful Monday!
Much love.

Happy Monday Vanessa! You are looking stunning in your crop top and pants. And you’ve styled it perfectly with just the right amount of skin showing. I also love that the lace gives this look just the right amount of edge.
On another note -I can’t believe you guys have no snow and that your temps are so mild. Meanwhile, over here it’s been snowing? Boo!

I love this look! I always love a totally black outfit and this looks amazing on you!
Nice look! xx
I’ll take One Hawt Mama to go please, haha! Loving this look, the detailing on the crop: embroidery, leather…YASS! And with the relaxed fitting high waist trousers, it takes the look to a more chic n relaxed level and the hat punctuates the look with the right amount of sass! Looking forward to the weather staying the way it is to see more Spring looks. Ps how lucky are you to have found this location. Have a lovely Monday Bella. Xx
Very feminine look dear, I really love your style!
Kisses! F.

I love when cropped tops are showing just a tiny bit of skin, I think it looks much more sexy and cute then when a lot – less is more. You styled this top absolutely wonderfully. I have soft spot for lace. Gosh, what a great weather you have. We’ re still in winter, freezing. Wishing you wonderful day, lovely!

Vanessa, this is such a gorgeous pairing! I love that crop top and it looks great paired with those pants! You look like a model, absolutely stunning! I’m happy that things are starting to warm up around here, too. I’m not too fond of winter either, I don’t like bundling up and not being able to do all the fun things I enjoy because it’s too cold. Hopefully the weather will continue to get better because in New York, March can be bitter 🙁 I hope you have an amazing day and week ahead; sending lots of love your way, dear friend!
