Babes on Bikes with Baskets? [Bikes]

Try asking a fashionable lady friend, who knows nothing about bikes and would treat a bike only as a fashion accessory, e.g. the colour of the bike has to go with a certain outfit she/he? has.. The first thing they gonna say is that they want the relaxed or laid back geometry, with a big bamboo made basket hanging in front of the bike.. kinda like this:

Well, thats a nice looking cruiser bike.. maybe if someone asked it with that particular frame and cruiser brakes, that'll be a tight looking bike. But it doesnt have to look like that! it doesnt always have to have a basket in front! most of the reasons i get from them is that so they can put their shopping in the basket or whatever uncarriable whilst riding.. thats a good point! but when youre only looking to suit your style i think the vintage bikes would look best on probably most fashion backgrounds:

010 by you.

any bike will be fine, you just gotta sit on that saddle and pedal, baby!
