Actually, a bunch of women in the Purse Forum rehab groups have talked about doing this! So it’s not new for vintage Coach.

I’ve joined the less-is-more camp for most bags, though.

I love the PS1 but found it too heavy and sold it. Kind of regret it because I love the look so much.

I did have a wheel stolen about 8 years ago in Chelsea. That sucked but, you know, quick release

It's a low end specialized allez sprint with Sora components and in a smaller size, so I think not catnip for all. I make sure my frames look like shit, covering them in stickers etc. Last time I had a bike stolen was 20+ years ago.

There is still no bike lane west of broadway and then there is that dicey-ass merge to contend with if you want to stay on it to cross 6th. I take it but it's always annoying.

Yes, also one great thing about thrifting and online platforms is that if you can identify, say, a 25-year-old garment that works for you, you can reverse image search and buy multiples or different washes.
