RiRi asked:
I am going on a trip to China and I just wanted to know from anyone who has been there or knows, how much the clothes and shoes cost? I am talking about fashionable trendy stuff that is not expensive. I would like to work out roughly how much to carry for such. Oh and if any one can give ideas of which places are best to shop for cheap stuff. I’ll be going to Beijing.

I’m half chinese so I’d say Beijing is a great place to be but HongKong has a lot of trendy stuff.

Almost everything is China is cheap, but since you’re a foreigner, you’re going to get a price that has been jacked up A LOT. But, still cheap compared to the USA and stuff. If you wear a bigger size (bigger than around a 4) or you’re taller than like 5′6” you’ll have some trouble finding clothes, and shoes wise, the biggest size they have is usually like a 39ish (8.5). But the quality might not be great, but I got a pair of really cute flats for like 5rmb (less than $1usd).
