That Sekine is set up nicely, Looks like chrome on the frame and fork, a nice curve on the fork, Tektro 559 calipers, SKS fenders, Blackburn rack, dynamo hub and lighting. It doesn't need to have fancy double butted tubing and forged drop outs to be a good bike.
The fenders look like they are green with a light green pin strip. Is that right or are they black with a lime green pinstripe painted from the inside. Excellent attention to detail. No wonder she loves it. She has good taste.
Those paniers are full. We are also trying to minimize or grocery store visits, but we are using a car for our shopping excursions.

The Sekine briefly had a different owner and acquired it's stickered visage. Been meaning to remove those.

What's funny is we have a flag of Mars on our house.
Small world. I mean, solar system.
