Who
: Kate Kunkel
Age: 20
Occupation: Journalism Student
Her Neighborhood: Downtown Phoenix
Where Spotted: Biking to church on Taylor Street
What do you enjoy about downtown? I like that it is close to my campus and that anywhere that I want to go to I can go by bike.
Where do you like to explore? I typically head north to try the unique restaurants. I like going to the Phoenix Public Library and the park over there; a lot of times I will ride on the bike path around there.
What is your typical biking ensemble? Most of the time I wear shorts or pants and a cute top and some flats, but days where I have to wear wedges or heel I just bring them to change into.
What she’s wearing:
• Target dress
• Lauren Conrad wedges
• Express purse
Her biking essentials:
• Over the shoulder bag to keep her hands free
• Gunmetal gray Mongoose (borrowed from her brother)
