Our friends Omer Kreso and Chrissy Piper (celebrity photographer extraordinaire – she’s shot two icons of female rock – Karen O and Cat Power) had the idea to do a bicycle-themed shoot. I got together my closest fashion partners in crime – my roommates Jamaica Cole of Sapphire Cordial and Diana Deaver of Seven Bells (and WellWornRoad.com) and the ladies of Preen Vintage in Tucson, Erin Bradley and Emilie Marchand to show off our bike-friendly style in our own ways… with a our interpretation of “road warrior chic.”
After that, we were recruited by Tucson Bike Beautiful to promote their upcoming bike fashion procession with another shoot of more ladylike leanings, where we attempted to match our outfits to the era of bike we were riding. These shots were taken by Adam Kizanis and are featured in local glossy, Zocalo Magazine for the month of April. Thanks all!
This is some extraordinarily cool styling!!!

WOAH! I actually have the third dress from the bottom. It was my mothers that she wore to a high school dance in the 70s. So strange when you see a vintage piece like this on someone else.

Das ist doch mal altmodisch und Stylisch zu gleich. Wirklich klasse Fotos, bin begeistert.
Great Pictures.
Pretty cool pictures you have there. Now I can find other uses for bikes besides of working out.

My favourite thing to see on the way home from work is a Dickhead trapped under their 2 ton useless vintage bike with the vacant look on their chops, full of the realisation that fashion doesn’t overpower practicality, especially in transport.
New wave fun with a vintage feel.
