victory girl!

 hello everybody! hope all is well!!!!!


today is another bike riding outfit post! i don't show you very often what i wear to work so here goes! it is a bit darker then my usual bright palette but i love it still the same! while riding to bart i felt like i was a victory girl from the 40's!



with my hair twisted back and the brown saddle shoes, my frog belt and my classic 1969 hercules ladies frame to top off the look and then this roll of film that came out so cool and soft, they look like vintage pictures...well minus my yellow pannier..


it is always so much fun to feel like you might be from a different era...made me want to pop some swing music on my ipod and shuffle around on my bike all day!

    looking very dapper lady. I wish I could ride to work but I just feel like I would be all sweaty by the time I get there. That and I am too lazy :)
