Playing Dress-up

So one of the neat things about Shanghai is going to all the different markets.  These aren't little stores of a specific type something.  These are multi-floor centers of specific industry.  There's a couple plant markets, there's an electronics market, and there's the fabric market.  Here's just a glimpse of how it works.

First you find a stall that has something that you're interested in.  Then you point it out and how you'd like to change it.  Then you haggle the price down, pick the material, and get measured while the lady working there fans you with a magazine.  See her in stripes?

Go back a week later to pick it up and enjoy the results!  

I'm thinking it'll be a good work dress.  The kind of grey/khaki that's easy to color-fy with accessories.  

$30 well spent, I say.
