My new bike arrived yesterday. It is perhaps the cutest bike I’ve ever seen.

Hi Ladies,
I realize this post is old, but I wanted to let everyone know that I have both the Liberty of London and Missoni bikes on sale on eBay right now — just in case you missed them in the stores! Thanks, and happy Target shopping :)
R. R. Martin
Do you have a Liberty of London bicycle? Or know where I might purchase one?
Karen
Sigh! I am green with envy and so happy for you at the same time. I want that bike!
Jessica
OMG!!! I bought this bike as well and I love it. I cant believe that they are numbered on the front. I cant wait to go home and look for myself. This bike is great. I love it!!!
keidy
I went to three target stores to buy this bike and none of them had it. I went to the three target stores because I’m aware of target’s shipping costs. I paid $80 for each victoria hagen chair that I bought for my dining room table. AGH. Well, no dice. I should have ordered online. BUMMER. So beautiful. I congratulate you. I didn’t know they would be numbered either. sO AWESOME

It is so cool !
emily
Wow! I’m so jealous!
Melissa
Gorgeous! Have you seen their (Liberty of London) line of little girl’s dresses? All similar bold prints, with many bold pinks and oranges, etc. I’m thinking Eleanor needs one or two…or ten. (I know my daughter did!) (I follow your blog religiously…de-lurking today for a good cause!) Take care, Melissa (off to buy that adorable grassy drying rack…)

I’ve been looking for this bike at every Target in three states so I have to say I hate you. Not really, well maybe a little. Be sure to lock it up if you leave it somewhere because I know it won’t be there when you come back if you don’t.

Hello! I also ordered the Liberty of London lady cruiser. I ordered mine online the first day of the launch and it arrived last week. The it is still in its pretty brown box (my back is injured) till I can get it over to the bike shop for assembly. Till then, I am shopping online for the perfect wicker basket, bike lights and bike lock.
Enjoy your bike!
karen
Also have this bike – and i am 6′ tall. Sharing it with my 14 year old daughter, but I don’t know what number we got. Please let us know what basket you decide on – it is the kind of bike that screams for a basket, but i’m clueless about the options.
Debbie
Mine arrived last week as well. It’s #25…a nice round number. :-) Nicole if you don’t mind me asking, was it difficult to put it together and what tools are needed? Mine is sitting here in “dry dock” until my son comes next week and he asked what he should bring.
meredith
“Covetable,” indeed! I just saw one listed on eBay for $750 and climbing. . .
Have fun!
Karen
HOW did you find out about this bike? I guess I ma clueless. Enjoy, it’s gorgeous!
Lisa
I so want this bicycle! I was so upset when I found out it was sold out. I guess I will just have to live vicariously through you, hope you don’t mind. ;)
alison
it’s weird but somehow following your blog has allowed me to curb my spending habits. you have so many cute things…i can just go online and look at your cute stuff instead of buying my own.
Donna
I went to target.com to order the Liberty of London baby bedding you had posted a few weeks back on your “sneek peek.” On the release date, March 14th it said “coming soon” then the next day it said “not available”. Any word on this item? No one at stores or even their customer service phone line can tell me anything…I’m 8wks away from delivery and MUST HAVE this crib bedding!
jHill
Oh my gosh that is the pretties bike ever.
hena tayeb
it is so pretty.
ashleyD
oh my my!!! i’ve been DYING for a bike and i love liberty of london!! i hope they have them in my local store!
lindy
OMG, i hope Target is in my country :(
I’m still looking for my own cute bike…
Sweet regards from Indonesia…
Sandy
I was in Target yesterday…really liked the LOL stuff…then turned a box of stationary over and saw “made in China”. It just didn’t seem so special after that.
Jessie
OMGOMGOMG so jealous!
Ashley Lynne
uhhhhh…i think i’m in love. i’ve just started to ride bikes again…my husband’s bike actually. i think i was in elementary the last time i rode a bike consistently. i need to have this bike! i would put a little wire basket on it for my dreamy little trips to the farmers market. sigh.
lovesfool
Haha you are adorable.
Rene
What are you going to do with your other bike? The blue Trek. That’s the one I missed out on.
Sogni e Sorrisi
SUCH a cute bike–and a lovely picture of it!
michelle @ blissful musings
That is the most awesome bike ever! Love it!
Jimena
LOVE IT! How fun!
shermi
After you posted that it was coming I set an alert on my Outlook to remind me, but they were already sold out by the time I went to order it. I’m soooooo jealous!!
Claudia
i tried ordering it but they were sold out! ah! so glad you got one thought, if there’s anyone more fitting to have this bike, it’s you. :)
Helen
oh my lovelies!!! that is so pretty.
Brandie
I’m so jealous! But happy for you too. Enjoy!
JENNIFER RAMOS
Wow I would have NEVER thought.. :)))
Beq
wow… amazing bike.. I want one!!! I would love to see an image of it in a bike rack shining like a jewel amongst the drab old grey/black bikes.. this bike is a stunner!!!
Beq
Stephanie @ Geezees
What a pretty bike!!!
LindaS
Thats beautiful! Almost enough to motivate me to exercise!
Bobbi
I was able to get the last one from the Target in San Diego on Sunday morning — I didn’t know they were a limited edition!
I’m going to sneak out of work early to go see what mine is…I’ll have to make that my new lucky number!
Delane
I.AM.SO.JEALOUS!!!!!
I want this bike so bad. I imagaine myself riding this bike on the Chicago lake front path wearing a ruffly sun dress and putting a wicker basket on the front of the bike that would be filled with flowers from the Green City Market.
I.AM.SO.JEALOUS!!!!!
Kristen
Likes this! When I was in Target last night I ran across their precious piggy bank line. Great colors for spring!!
April
Omg it’s so pretty!!!
gina
omg soo cute I love that you got this!!
Miss B
Jealous! Enjoy it:)
Catherine
Gorgeous! Cruisers are so comfy – I love not having to hunch over the handlebars. A white Carrie basket for the front and you’re all set!
MB
Super cute! I think you need to create the perfect outfit to go with your new bike and then share with all of us:) Congrats!
Valentina
Holy Cannoli! I’m not a bicycle girl at all, but I really *LOVE* that one, super cool!
Emily
WOW! I didn’t realize they were numbered. SOOO COOL!
meg
So jealous! But also so happy for you! Do you think they will be making more? I really reeeeeally wanted one, but didn’t know they would be limited edition and would go so fast.
Simone
Yep, so this is me, completely and utterly jealous of you. This bike is just too, too beautiful.
Emily
So jealous you got yours already! I ordered the Paisley print one, because i wasn’t quick enough to get the floral.. too bad it wont make it to me in nyc till beginning of april!
Kate at Centsational Girl
Oh my goodness, what a perfectly feminine bike, and so YOU ! I can’t believe how brilliant Liberty of London is to partner with Target – in this economy we all crave impeccable style at a reasonable price – so smart, stylish and savvy ! Great pic girl, now all you need is one of those little baby trailers and you and Eleanor are on your way adventuring. Sweetness !
Lindzie H
I just saw these new patterns in Target. I almost bought one of the dresses…but had already spent too much for the day. Next time…next time!
McCaulie
Have you taken it for a ride yet? I want this bike but I am dying to know how comfy it is!
Making it Lovely
Just around the back yard so far, but it seems good! The bike is sold out already though – it went fast.
Summer
So. darn. jealous. I want, I want!
Chroma Lab
When you mentioned on Twitter you were getting a bike delivered, I was hoping it was one of these! So cool!
jbhat
I KNEW you were going to get that bike, whether you needed a bike or not. Because you needed THAT bike.
Long live #6! Good for you!
jbhat
Brigite
Awesome.
Abbie
I am so jealous! I don’t live within an hour and a half of a Target and have been dying to see the LOL collection. The bikes are just too fun! Very cool that you got a low number, too!
Rachael Anne
Look at you on the ball! That beautiful bike has been sold out for awhile, so you getting the 6th out of 500 is impressive. Most of the entire Liberty of London collection is gone in my local stores. Too many people with good taste.
Making it Lovely
I ordered the bike right away. I went to the store at 10:00, just one hour after they opened, and all of the stuff was already picked over!
jen
I am so jealous! I don’t think they would make one for me since I am 6′ but boy do I want one. I hope you have fun cruisin’ around today!
Amanda
Wow! Is it really #6 out of only 500 made? That’s kind of neat!
Making it Lovely
Yeah, I kind of like that I got such a low number! ;)
kristy
Oooh – and you got number SIX! Awesome!
Olivia
Oh man, that is just LOVELY! And I’m so jealous!
Sasha {Everything Fabulous}
I want to buy it but it’s out of stock…looks fabulous!! enjoy it!!!!
Heather
It’s so pretty! They’re already out of stock on so many of the Lady of Liberty products here (and online)..boo hoo!
Helen
And edition 6/500? Wow! Do you mind telling how much it cost? Isn’t online and I’m curious :)
Making it Lovely
$199! Shipping was expensive ($90), but getting a bike for less than three hundred is still a pretty good deal.
Gwendolyn
I love it! Are you going to get a little baby seat and helmet for Eleanor?
Making it Lovely
I don’t know… that makes me nervous! I’m looking forward to family bike rides, but that won’t happen for several years.
charmaine
I heart that bike. Of course, it’s sold out already! So jealous!
Ashley B
So cute!
I hope you saved 10% on that by using your AAA card on Target.com! AAA Mid-Atlantic gives the discount, I hope your local club does too!
Melanie
wanna have it toooo!!! maybe you can take a tour to austria and let me go for a short little spin with it?! ;)
Charlene @ Sweetchic
Wow, I’m not much of a bike rider, but if I had this gorgeous bike, I would totally ride it!!
Ali
*SWOON* I’ve had my eye on that bike! It’s so pretty :)
Leah@StorybookRanch
Gorgeous! Makes me want to take some spraypaint to my black bike :)
tiina
That bike will turn some heads:) What a pretty floral pattern and colors!
Caitlin
Wow! I’ve never seen anything like this before. Have fun!
