high fashion

Is it me? or them?

It was summer the second time i visited China and for most of them, summer means showing off their best in short summer dresses which they usually match with stilettos. I was trapped in prom fever, everywhere i look girls are dressed like they're out to party! Laces, satin, sequins, ribbons, everything you can imagine.

They go to work everyday wearing those frilly dresses, sometimes when i get on the elevator, i feel so lost and so underdressed...i usually have the "i-didn't-get-the-memo" feeling.

What bothers me though...is how in the world do they ride their bicycles? Bicycles are still in fashion here, it is still very much used. I guess you can imagine people-wearing-skirts and bicycles together...but add to the that the stilettos(?)

Well, it's summer once again, and yes i see them everywhere. The are back! Going to work today i saw her, i like her dress, not to frilly...and to answer my first question, it's me. i don't read memos, i think its high time i wear one to blend with the locals.

Nice blog you got here, my friend. Nice pictures! Nagagandahan ako siguro dahil in a way, pareho tayo ng paningin -- mga karansan at iba pa -- na pinagmumulan. It's an honor to be the first to comment!

Maraming Salamat sa iyo kapirasong parisukat!
Ikaw ang dahilan ng lahat ng ito!
DI ko nais maging iba, nais ko lang ipakita nag mga bagay-bagay sa paligid ko, vigenettes kumbaga!
At kasabay nito ay ang aking reaksyon at mga bagay na sumasagi sa isip ko sa oras na kunan ko ng litrato ang aking subject.

salamat sa iyo kaibigan
