Why:
I am obsessed with this necklace… it’s so bold and such a statement… I can tell I’ll be wearing it all summer. Although there’s tons of ways to wear it, I felt like a neutral background would be best. This blouse is the black version of the peach top I styled at the ROXY event I was at this winter. Not a ton of hanger appeal but once on - it’s awesome.  I felt really chic an casual in this outfit and it was perfect for both of my earlier meetings (which went well), so… when I got home Adam and I went to the bike store and I picked out a brand new set of wheels!!!

My old vintage bike was lovely, but with a heavy steel frame, and a hilly neighborhood, it wasn’t great. Also, after a winter outside, it’s extra rusty. Boo. My new bike is light and cute and I can’t wait to pose with her for some outfit photos over the weekend. As I name many inantimate objects in my life (here & here), I’m thinking Jacqueline or Franchesca for my Italian bicycle.  Do you name your car or bike?
