It's All About Space: The Cycle Chic Space.

The urban fabric in a Life-Sized City provides space. It provides space for mobility, expression and socialization. This shot from a Saturday afternoon in Vesterbrogade, one of the main streets in Copenhagen, is a simple example of the freedom . It was a busy day on the streets, but this girl knows how to work it all out riding on her bicycle and keeping it chic.



She knows she has enough space as a bicycle user and cars won't mess with that. She rides easy and glamorously carrying large cargo, talking on the phone and rocking a green, poncho sweater.

 

She shows off her style without endeavor because the blue lane is her runway.

Blue Mystery

In this city, "street style" cannot mean the same as it does in other cities around the world. Street style in Copenhagen includes a bicycle, no matter what. That is what makes our job in Cycle Chic really exciting. Any and every style and personality is embraced riding a bicycle. Bicycles are a major asset in the overall composition of your everyday style. 

This Copenhagen street moment captured through our lens is about a mysterious man in blue. He must have decided to have elegance and simplicity as priorities in his composition. He matched his bicycle with his scarf and the rest was left for black to take over. Black beanie, black, puffy jacket, black gloves... Two accents in his composition made him stand out from the classic Copenhagen Black.  He rode past us on his triangle, vintage bicycle and smiled. 

Happy cycling!

The Market Experience on a Bicycle

In Copenhagen, going to the market is easier and more fun than anywhere else in the world simply because you can do it on your bicycle.   

Park right in front of where you want to go because urban cycling includes a couple easy stops along the ride. Show up wearing sweatpants, white trainers, and a purple, blanket scarf because you might stop at the next shop on the way...



Arrive making a scene.
Don't hide yourself or your stuff in the back of a pickup truck... Lock your vehicle and grab your black, leather tote from the frontal display of you bicycle we like to call a basket.



Exit quickly, though.
Place all items in your available compartment , in this case, a portable, fiber basket would do just fine, and continue your journey with your bicycle. Or I should say your -never ending- journey with your bicycle...

Happy Cycling!

Last Impression Given on a Bicycle

As she put herself together, getting ready to cruise off on her bicycle, she felt the urge to give away a subtle goodbye.
       

Her bicycle became an extension of her legs, while the rest of her held tight to the moment.



Seconds before her exit, she knew with her bicycle she couldn't be shy.

  

Her last impression was made and could not be stolen.
