After a long winter, the first few days of warm weather brought along a pleasant change to puffy jackets and thick boots. Shedding the down feathers and extra layers, Valerie was caught breezing by with a refreshing thin jacket and light silk scarf; she was late for giving one of her Chicago chocolate boutique tours. Her vivid yellow coat plays well with the splash of blue and purple on her scarf and bag, making for a festive, yet elegant, springtime look.



She looks like a rubber dish glove.
There is a joke about this statement waiting to be uttered, but I'm too much of a gentleman to say it...
Why is Chicagoist trying to turn into a wannabe The Sartorialist?
She looks about three feet tall. But have to say the last few selections do seem a bit more "fashion spread worthy" than the first two "some-guy-with-a-coat-a-shirt-and-a-pair-of-pants" selections. The last few do appear to stand out on the street, as opposed to the rest of us dark-clothing schlubs, me being one of said schlubs.
She looks good. I look hideous in yellow, so I am insanely jealous of anyone who makes a yellow coat look good.
Bumblebee man's getting hot.
The yellow jacket has a real That Girl vibe that makes her stand out in a good way. What she really needs are some sexy boots.
She looks great. What a fabulous ensemble.
holy crap! i was given a chocolate tour by that woman for my sister's bachelorette party! and yes, she is about three feet tall. i kid, but she is petite, as well as very friendly and enthusiastic. go do her tour, people!
Is that Debbie Downer?

The bag seems to overpower her tiny little frame, and the textured tights seem out of place with the lightweight coat. However, I do love the yellow and the cute little flats.
Sometimes tiny and compact is sexy. I think over all she is very rock'n an upper eastside look very well. Whats under the coat, scarf? I did that pattern.
p.s
yea mucky, boots could go, but I like the shoes
