You knew it was going to happen! I found out where the silk market was and J. Bob and I headed out this afternoon. Along the way I found some adorable red slippers which I am holding in the picture with the nice lady who helped me negotiate a sale. It was hard to find my size, but I managed to find a pair for 10 yuan (that's $1.25). Then it was on to the silk market where there were silk brocade jackets galore -- just what I was looking for! You can see the colors that are available! I bought the black one with the red Chinese pattern which I am trying on and the red one on the mannequin! Wow -- did I score big or what? They were on the sale rack for 108 yuan (that's $13.50). It's fun to shop the sales no matter where you are!
