Cycle Chic

Does muggy weather leave you feeling – well, mugged? Beat the heat and get off your feet: and onto pedals! Biking allows you to create your own breeze in your own time, turning sweltering summer into a sweet and lazy adventure. It’s better for your body and the planet, you’ll never have to worry about overcrowded trains or traffic, and best of all? Parking is a snap. We’ve rounded up the best of bike accessories to keep you stylish on two wheels all summer long.

Nothing kills the image of effortless cycling faster than the thought of having to schlep everything you own over one shoulder, or jammed awkwardly into a backpack. Turn that bike into a packhorse! With a classic wicker basket  (we like this one from the Basket Lady), you’ll look adorably vintage and feel utterly carefree.

Whether you’re running errands or just heading out to the beach, it pays to have a system of conveyance that will hold that bouquet of flowers, bottle of wine, baguette, and towel without flinching. This adorable tote from Home Ec is more than up to the task of keeping you organized.

Staying hydrated is vital while you ride, but nothing will harsh your eco-mellow faster than having to pull out a plastic bottle of water. Upgrade! Glass water bottles are beautiful, lighter weight than you might expect, and longlasting. They harbor no smells or bacteria, making them a longer lasting companion than aluminum. The bkr bottle is gorgeous and gives back – a portion of the proceeds are donated to the Canary and Obakki Foundations.

And finally, give your bike a whimsical touch with a little hint of green. Colleen Jordan’s adorable Bike Planters are a succulent reminder that it’s easier – and cuter – to be green than you might think. Ride safe, and remember to Cher the Road!
