Secret Service

I have found my dream bicycle. It's about 10 times more expensive than my current one-speed Huffy but I think some things are worth splurging on. Naturally it'll take me several months to save up for but I'm just so in love with this bike. It fits my style well and I'd like, eventually, to live in a town where I can ride just about everywhere.

My Dutch Bike says it's "A tough and stealthily modern Dutch city bike that blends into the crowd. Compared to our extraordinarily robust traditional models the Secret Service is tighter and lighter. It's ideal both for those who cover some distance and also for smaller riders."

So tell me, what is just too important to you to put a price on?

More Pants!

I promise this is my last post about pants...but how beautiful are these from Nadinoo?

They're a little on the pricey side but they're 100% silk satin and look like they would suit a bike ride past the Eiffel Tower or on the back of a tandem, staring at some cute boy's head.

I have to go beg my boyfriend to get us one of these!

You'll Look Sweet, Upon the Seat

I think Winter is just great. The chilly air, thick wool mittens, snowy days spent baking indoors. I could go on. However, I find these days that the one thing I really crave is...


A ride on my bike! I miss it, I really do. Oh to be outdoors.
Unfortunately, the air is so cold it hurts to breathe and my little blue cruiser is dusted with snow.
On the bright side, I've been online shopping (in my warm bed) for a cute pair of Audrey-style pants to wear come spring. Much chicer than bicycle leggings from Sport's Authority, no?
