Amsterdam: Accessorize with a Bicycle

As you can see by this video here (thanks Clair!), everyone and their grandma cycles in the Netherlands. It's true. Whether it's one person, or a family of four. Whether they're wearing heels, ballet flats or multitasking. They're cycling. Sans helmets, mind you. And apparently they have a "Sunday Bike" and a regular bike. The Sunday cycle is reserved for weekend excursions, whereas the regular bicycle is for city riding, and in case of theft.

Sometimes the only fashion accessory you need, is a bicycle.

Maroon + Booties

As seen on the streets of Amsterdam.

Maroon bag + booties?  Check.

Cute peplum jacket?  Mmm-hmm.

Cellphone?  Yup.

Bicycle?  You betcha.  (photo by photohogger)

What's the colour of your go-to Fall bag?  (One of my faves is a dark blue Sak messenger bag)

Two Tones

Hi guys! I'm back from Amsterdam.  We also went to Greece for a week, but more on that later.

Firstly, I absolutely loved Amsterdam.

Holy bicycles, Batman!  And the multitasking that these men and women do on their bicycles.  And in such beautifully tailored suits and magnificent heels.  Impressive, to say the least.  I can barely ride a bike let alone, hold an umbrella.  Or, in this case, a cigarette.

Love the two tone booties with leather pants.  (photos by photohogger)

How are you at multi-tasking on a bicycle?
