I live in NYC and use my bike to commute and get around. The problem is it's hard to look good; in particular the dreaded helmet problem. I found a few cool helmets, I bought the bern one below (approx $50 USD), but the yakkay ones are great though much more expensive. Any ideas on nice bike fashion from our super chic community?B)

Hey, Girls do i feel ya!!!
I cycle everyday and need to get a helmet as im on the road (brave girl arnt i!!)
I hae a Vintage Raleigh bike that currently looks better than me!
I tend to cycle in flats/soles with grip so i dont slip off the pedals!! I often take a change of shoes with me, but i do struggle on what to wear sometimes!
I had a dress yesterday, that was up round my armpits with the blutery winds we had - luckily i had balck tights on!!

Also i wrap up as bit chilly, then time i get to work im hot and flustered and we have no shower facilities so do i brave it and be chilly perhaps ?
Such dilemas he he!
I'd say, take a change of shoes, if you are okay in a skirt, then go for it, i did just manage it in a body con style, high waisted denim one the other day to my delight!
But im keen to see other tips too.
P.s Im loveing those helmets though ad shall invest most definately!
Thanks peeps xx
