A Splendid Dash

Sometimes all we think of is getting from A to B. No frills. No second thoughts. But always in the most splendid way; on our bikes!




Saturday afternoon - heading home at last!



Dodging the raindrops all the way.



Morning commute - just in time.



Happy Cycling!

The perfect Copenhagen beer

Cool Charlea is visiting from Canada. So – what’s her plans for the weekend?

She plans on going to the Mikkeller bar at Vesterbro - a bar started by two home brewers who in a few years went from hobby brewing in the kitchen to national and international recognition, read more.

So if you fancy a nice cold beer this weekend, why not do  like Charlea – and choose between more than 15 local variants?

Peace & blog love,

Where to bring your bike for a Copenhagen drink

Copenhageners Karen & Claus on a sunny day. The hat of Claus is bought “right next to Illum”. Where?! I guess there are a minimum of 50 stores next to Illum, so good luck if you want exactly the cool hat aka Claus  The good news is you can just step into the department store Illum and enjoy a wide selection of nice hats – and don’t you just love it when men wear a hat?

Where to go this weekend? Grab your bike and head for classic Cafe Victor in Ny Østergade:

… and yep, why not spice up your weekend and wear that hat, when you chill out with a drink at Cafe Victor.

Happy Friday!

Ps. I once spiced up a Copenhagen cafe visit with this hat, and had lots of fun (O:

Leggings & Jeggings

Not into the code of the Fashion Police I can only state the incontrovertible; Leggings and Jeggings are galore here in Copenhagen. Comfortable, practical and warmer than stockings they go really well with biking. Above; stylish flower patterned jeggings. Below; half&half borderline Bordeaux.




Elegant snakeskin leggings topped off with a matching leather jacket – way off limits according to some. But what’s not to like?



Wow-outfit; see-me silver coded leggings with point blank stilettoes!



Finally, a Copenhagen favorite; traditional leggings with a protective wind shell for those frosty & windy mornings.



Happy Cycling!

Zipping Zippers

Zippers are zipping through Copenhagen zigzagging around town. Above; great jacket/pant zip combo. Below; Horizontal and vertical zips combined.




Cool cat with oversized zippers.



Full double row zippered dress.



For the gents an elegant, simple single line zipper.

Bike guide: What to do in Copenhagen this weekend

… it’s weekend, the sun is shining - well, they say it will on Saturday - you want to enjoy Copenhagen, so what do you do?

Hey Friend, do what I did last Sunday; grab your bike and head for Copenhagen Vesterport Station!

It’s possible to carry my bike up the stairs, in a special side slide. But I’m lazy, so I take the elevator… Notice the candy colored  Palads Theatre in the background – love it!

The reason why I choose to step off at Vesterport is I’d like to bicycle through The Latin Quarter. Here’s always exciting people & places to see – here I am in Studiestræde.

Already in Nyhavn! Saying hi to Mr. Muffin.

Maybe the best ice cream in Copenhagen?

Join me further on to The Little Mermaid & some ugly (NOT) ducklings aka H.C. Andersen - click here to see more pictures on my blog CPH BLONDE (O;

You take care, happy bicycling out there!

Peace & Love,

Mid-June: shorts and sun

 Hi Cycle Chic readers,

I'm the blogger of Byliv in Copenhague and I'm glad to contribute to Copenhagen Cycle Chic. I'm French and after moving from Paris, I enjoy biking everyday in Copenhagen.

Cyclists do enhance the city !

I'll try to capture every week what is trendy to wear when you are cycling in Copenhagen.

Find out the result through pictures every Wednesday and share your comments !

  

Second week of June: shorts - from mini-shorts for the girls to Bermuda shorts for the boys - are the outfit to wear for biking to work or school. Yes, this week is sunny and hot, and Copenhagen is a casual chic city.
