We love to see her smile! Vanessa suffered the loss of her father Greg, to cancer in February, right as she was set to perform Grease live for TV. The consummate actress powered through, but it looks like the effects of her father's passing may have caused the star to drop a few pounds. When we caught up with her grabbing coffee, on Thursday, she bared a super-tiny waist in a cropped eyelet top and suede, fringed skirt.

Vanessa Hudgens went to Alfred Coffee & Kitchen in West Hollywood on Thursday, and she was joined by a friend and her pal's kid. Her boho ensemble looks like a precursor to Coachella -- we have a feeling this might have been inspired by some of the stuff she's pulling from her wardrobe for the spring music festival.

Vanessa was in New York City last week with steady beau Austin Butler, and the duo caught the Broadway show Hamilton. Can you believe they have been together for over 4 years now? In 2015 Austin chatted with Entertainment Tonight at the MTV Music Video Awards and revealed his secret to keeping their relationship strong.

"I think you just have to -- it’s important to put that other person first," the blonde actor dished.
