Nomadlife, here I come!
Welcome to my first Nomadlife posting! I've made the move and hope that I can put my new HTML skills to use over the next few weeks to make it look nice :) (don't hold your breath!). I also hopethat it will make it easier for me to keep in touch with all those nomads out there!
Fashion
There's these GORGEOUS jackets in fashion this winter, short with one or two buttons, really nice colours and fabrics... I've never been big on fashion, but these are SO NICE! The unfortunate thing, I've realised since I first saw them 2 and a half weeks ago when I arrived in Adelaide, is that everyone has one. At uni, on the bus, in every single women's fashion shop. There is just no way that I could wear a jacket like that (cute as they are) and look any different from anyone else! It's sad, cos they're SO nice, but I just can't let myself become such a severe fashion victim like that.
And it's made me think - the fashion here is a lot more defined than in Beijing. I know Chris used to say that fashion in Beijing and Shanghai were really different, and I never really noticed, but I couldn't really define the fashion in Beijing. To me, everyone was wearing all kinds of stuff! Random! Though I could tell the shoe fashion.... very cute!
Also, I swear people around uni look way more dressed up than they used to. Or maybe it's the fact I've been living in jeans and AIESEC t-shirts for the past 12 months...
Luv and hugs, Flic

Hi Flic!
Now I can finally comment without signing up to another internet account!
I loved your stories of China and I look forward to reading about the more exotic Adelaide.
Welcome, welcome ,welcome to nomadlife! :D :D
And Flic, we all know fashion is really about the amount of bags and shoes one can accumulate--everything else is just junk ;)
love,

Hahaha well Mel, if it's about the number of bags, then i've become a lot more fashionable through living in Beijing! It was seriously ridiculous trying to pack, I felt like you, trying to fit my bags inside other bags to go inside bigger bags...
