looky here, bike skirt

The 1980s preppy prints are back in a big way or at least they were last summer. My favorite is a black polo shirt with mini skulls and cross bones all over it instead of whales

I find myself strangely drawn to the preppy prints again (though I haven't actually brought myself to buy any); perhaps i'm just being nostalgic for my grade school years!

Ah yes, well, I'm never one to be very much in fashion. In this case, it's probably a good thing.

To truly appreciate this, you have to click on the Alternate View photo.

If I stood around like that for very long, my back would hurt too much to ride my bike...

Am I missing something? How is that a bike skirt? It looks like it would be impossible to move my legs and pedal in it.

It's not a skirt FOR biking, it's a skirt about biking! You have to zoom in to see but the print is tiny little bicycles.

Not my style - but definitely cuter than whales!

Apparently the cute shirt-dress from Anthropolgie with all the pennyfarthings printed on it is already gone from the website.

-- gnat! (was waiting for it to go on sale)

This one is standing like The Incredible Hulk. Seriously, who was in charge of posing some of these models? It certainly doesn't make me want to spend $$ there.

I didn't see this model when I looked yesterday. She looks like she's waaaaay too tuckered out to stand up straight - or she needs some chocolate

All joking aside, someone DID put her in that position...

The blue shirt model reminds me of the marathon runner who limped across the finish looking like she'd had a stroke. 1984 LA Olympics, I think.

She can't help being slumped over to one side, because her one arm is six inches longer than the other. LOL!

Ok, that green bike skirt is something I might wear.....when I'm dead maybe! LOL!!!
