In Morocco, the sun is bright whatever the season of the year. Enjoy hiding behind your sunglasses while cruising in the city and cherry on the cake, sunglasses are way easier to put on than eye makeup.
4. A headscarf floating in the wind

Eighty years ago, the 35in-square silk twill Hermès scarf was born, check all their tips for knotting your scarf in a stylish way. And unlike Isadora Duncan, please wear a short scarf on your sidecar ride.
5. Put goggles over your vintage helmet
Your outfit isn’t complete without that one final accessory that ties it all together. Besides looking cool, helmets should always be worn when riding for safety reasons. And for the last stylish touch, put on vintage classic leather goggles over your helmet, like the one’s used by the American bikers in the 60’s.
