Fashion Forward

Alright, so I left off last night heading to dinner. Man was that a fun night out. We started with Chinese and wine. I must say that I have yet to experience amazing Chinese food here. We then went out for a couple of drinks and lots of dancing

As mentioned, today was fashion day. We stared at Li and Fung, which is the worlds largest supply chain company in the world. It was really interesting. Did you know that "Made in China" really means assembled in China? The materials for the items we use are really sourced all over - not necessarily just from China. They work with tons of brands that you've heard of (Dior, Chanel, Express). We then Saw their showrooms which is like tons of mini stores set up so that vendors can see their product in it's environment. Sorry, no pictures - we weren't allowed.

We then took the subway (much larger, cleaner, and nicer than Chicago btw)


And had lunch and met with Moiselle, another fashion company. Our speech was from the owners son and quite interesting.

The streets here are crazy and crowded - and just amazing to look at



And some fun random pics for you...



Tomorrow is going to be a hike and possibly some shopping. I'll hopefully have some more scenery pics for you!
