Next time you hop on your bike for a ride try an ensemble like this that is both comfortable and stylish. The jeans are a relaxed skinny fit with a slightly higher waist, which I find ideal for biking. The top is loose and airy, but the pattern and fit make it more interesting than your basic tee. Ankle boots are a great option for a variety of activities, I own a few pairs! My favourite pair of ankle boots are my Original Blundstone's in Rustic Brown! They are durable (resilient), comfortable, weather proof and rustic chic. You cannot go wrong with a pair of Blundstone's. Add some accessories to your outfit that are bike friendly and you are ready to ride in style.
I am a city commuter who does not bow down to hideous performance spandex. I like to be comfortable, but fashionable. Of course flexibility is a necessary consideration when picking the right biking outfit (and leggings with a cute dress is a go to for me), but the right pair of jeans can be just as ideal. I bike for transportation and fun, to get from point A to point B, but not necessarily as fast as I humanly can. I take my time, I like to enjoy my surroundings and appreciate not being dripping with sweat when I arrive at my destination, which is often the workplace (where I need to look relatively professional). I have not been commuting by bicycle for very long and one day it struck me that my style has been somewhat altered by my daily commute, not in a bad way, but I seem to dress more simply and bicycle consciously.
Biking has changed my style…
Fashion Friday will be a weekly post on Me and My Azor. I will either share some of my biking outfits from the week, compile outfits with items I find online or discuss something biking fashion related. I want to show people that you do not have to sacrifice your fashionable self in order to bike! Stay tuned for next week’s Fashion Friday! |
