"I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride my bike, I want to ride my bicycle, I want to ride it where I like..." Why is it every time I think about bicycles, I hear that Queen song and Freddie Mercury crooning? Then it reminds me of a summer night long past, spent in the basement of Acme Underground in the Village. That song was playing and the bar had begun to clear out. A few of us were dancing and Conor comes running by pretending to ride a bike. Pretty soon we all join in spinning around with our invisible handlebars, popping wheelies...

Alright, enough reminiscing. The outfit above illustrates that stripes and polka dots can live in harmony. The pattern on pattern trend is so hot right now, and pairing stripes with dots is an easy-peasy way to pull it off. Especially if they're in the same color family. I also really love red shoes, and those little lace-up guys from Opening Ceremony are my favorite ever!

Hope you guys had a great weekend and got a chance to ride your bicycle, real or invisible.
