Please meet my bohemian bicycle muse, Tziporahsal. She has been captured riding her bicycle around NYC since 2001 via the legendary Bill Cunningham - NY Times- On the Street. She has graced those pages no less than eight times! She started off riding a vintage Schwinn bicycle and then moved on to a Bianchi Milano Cafe Sport. Truth be told it was her pictures that have inspired me more than anything to want to keep designing... (my bicycle helmet covers and capes). She has been such a dream muse for me!

To my eye Tziporahsal has the most amazing fashion sense. She is after my own heart, her outfits are gloriously vintage and so covetable... things she has obviously been collecting for a long while.

Ahhh..., the color mix, the ethnic / boho pieces and the hi-low approach to spending. Translation equals spending lo on vintage you are lucky enough to score ( think thrift store, street fair vendors, yard sales) and spending hi on signature, good buy investment pieces.


I have to thank Casacara for helping me to discover this amazing woman Tzipi, beyond the NY Times photos. Tzipi is an Artist, fashion stylist, costume designer, and a personal shopping consultant living in NYC. She also loves riding a bicycle!!!
