Paradigmatic Hipster Girl
Much as this fellow comes close to being an ideal hipster boy at this moment, here is a good representative of the hipster girls.
Certainly ’70s
Well, of course not ’70s Beijing, but this guy would fit in with many of the hipsters I knew in college.
By the Chemical Tank
Do toxins attract interesting styles? This university student certainly looks like she could live in a converted factory.
Sweetness up, Sexiness down
Overt sexiness has always seemed a bit out of place on Chinese girls themselves and on billboards throughout the country. Her appearance on the most recent cover of Vogue suggests Tang Wei is set to become everyone’s new fashion sweetheart.

Polish Pavilioneer
An old star of Stylites, Tomasz Sajewicz, the leading Polish broadcaster in China, has now transferred down to Shanghai, where he is leading the media relations team at the Polish Pavilion at the World Expo. He was up in the capital for the weekend.

Well, here’s yet another beautiful stylist outside of Lane Crawford.
At Vogue Event in Sanlitun
Ran into this young lady again. Next door, Vogue was putting on a shopping event in cooperation with several brands that have presences in Sanlitun Village.
Gorgeous Gia
I ran into Gia, the female lead from the former band Hang on the Box, once again and asked her a few questions this time.

As Cute as Ever
Who did I encounter at the electronic music festival but this sweet pair of designers?
Factory Girls
Those who fancy pretty girls near big machines should check out the next music festival at 751 D-Park where pipes, giants tanks formerly filled with toxins, smokestacks and other mysterious mechanisms abound.

After a few Drinks
The lines for the large tubs of Absolut cocktail were brutal and long, but the drink was very potent. This young lady said she was feeling the effects.
I was trying to think of all of the headings for this that could involve Absolut _____ and nothing appropriate came to mind. Have they done an Absolut 798 advertisement yet?
