This weekend: Summer of Dresses + Summer of Dapper

This weekend marks the first Summer of Dresses and Summer of Dapper Bike Ride. The latest mass bike ride is the summer version of the "Tweed Rides" that have been taking place in the Twin Cites last fall and earlier this spring, but put on by the folks behind the user-submitted Twin Cities-based style blogs. Originally, the Tweed Rides were inspired by their traditional British counterparts in which well-dresses ladies and gents all went for a bike ride in foppish tweeds. This, apparently, is the summer version - dapper-dressed gents and ladies in sweet summer dresses.

I can't quite believe how adorable of an idea this is - I love it anytime theme dress is encouraged.

The Bike Ride happens Saturday beginning at 2 p.m. Check out the facebook invite for more info, including route map and agenda.
