Is It Spring Yet?










Is it Spring yet? 

If you saw Monday's post, you know the answer in Chicago is sadly, no.  But that's not stopping us from celebrating a few looks we are loving for the season.  

During a recent trip to Banana, to browse their new arrivals, I came across this lovely olive green maxi skirt and knew I had to have it for m up coming travels at the end of March.  I'll be honest, I intended to pair the skirt with a simple ivory blouse, a thin belt, great layered jewelry and a leather jacket more fitting for the weather, but last minute decided against it.  Perhaps it's that deep-down burning desire for warmer weather that made me grab for a short sleeve top instead - nonetheless - I was happy to go bare armed even if just for a little while.  

I hope you're all having a great week!  The weekend is almost here!  Hoot, hoot! 

XOXO,
Anna

  6. I'm feeling the same way. It's no where NEAR spring up here in Toronto, but it's basically all I want right now.

    That skirt (and the whole outfit, pretty much) is gorgeous!
