Please help me make my men's bike look more girly ;)

I like that red and white Hawaiian print tool bag. I love your new bike!

I also like the ladybug bell.

OMG!!!

You guys (gals) are SO GREAT! Thanks so much for not making me feel like a complete ninny-fool.

I can't believe this but I just got home and my kids are still up - so I can't type much yet but for now let me just say how much I LOVE LOVE LOVE these ideas! I am sooooo getting that bike seat that's both red and pink. That is actually what I wanted to do to incorporate pink: to have it mixed with red - kinda like traditional valentines colors you know?

Oh and if I didn't say it already - I can return everything/anything cause I have 30 days. I'm trying to talk myself into holding on to the bike (not taking it back due to not getting the color I really wanted which was any version of light blue/sea foam/turquoise I could get - booooo - I've wanted one of those colors for YEARS) but I could certainly take black the black fenders and order the white ones I found online - Planet brand I think it was. I love the idea of powder coating (will have to google locally). Maybe buy an aluminum rear rack and just spray paint it white. I think I really do want to get the red basket I showed you in the first post (link to it). I thought that with a white rear rack would be a great combination...I'm so happy to have all this feedback!

Seeing the black bike w/ orange flowers a.k.a. the "Flower Power" bike (love it) made me realize what this bike's name could be if I added even just a few of those heart stickers. Ready? Drumroll.... "Queen of Hearts." You like?

The hand-painted bike bells are just killing me, they're so cute. I have no idea which one to pick! I love them all. the cherries. the strawberries. The flowers that have some red in the centers. The ladybug's cute but yeah a bit too kiddish for my tastes but still adorable (as if the berries aren't kiddish - haha). And more of the bells I"m forgetting right now (I read those posts a few hours ago on my way out!).

I had actually already found and bookmarked that red and pink saddle bag - it's cheap enough that I might get it even if I don't end up liking it. I was concerned it might be too small. I'll go look at the animal print one again too.

You're right - this is getting kind of fun! But only cause you're helping me!!

More later and thanks so much...

p.s. and thanks so much for liking the bike. I think if done right - not overdoing it but just a few little things here and there - it could send out the message that it's a WSD bike and some may not even consider that it ever wasn't.
