Forget the vintage Schwinn I've been eyeing to purchase for my city biking urges. I've decided on a Dutch bicycle thanks to the NY Times. They're black (my fave colour), sleek, evoke an air of European chic, and I won't have to worry about getting my Spring dresses caught in the chains.

I was actually walking by Club Monaco last week before I read that article and noticed a lovely bicycle in their display window (I barely noticed any of their clothes. Yes, that's how much I loved the bike). Well apparently, Club Monaco has exclusively partnered with Royal Gazelle to sell the Gazelle Dutch Bicycle. They're a thing of beauty. Major want.

EDIT: I have been informed that the bicycle in the ad campaigns was actually a bicycle from A Black Bike not Gazelle. Thanks for the clarification!
