Claire and I did something this week I've been intending to do for months... bought clothes. Like everything here, not as straightforward as you might think.
Step 1: Go to the market, look through piles and piles and piles of fabric. Discuss prices. Get followed from one stall to the next by hopeful merchants. Or, alternatively, go to someone's house, and sit on the patio discussing fabric colours and prices.
Step 2: Head to a tailors, and examine posters and photos of clothes models to choose a style. Get measured. Discuss potential pricing.
Step 3: Go back 2 weeks later to check on progress. Worry that clothes won't be done on time.
Step 4: Go back another week later and pick up clothes! Discuss potential pricing. Bring home 5 custom-made outfits (top & bottom) for $60 plus fabric costs.
Step 5: Go home and enjoy new clothes!
