When Christmas approaches, Beijing dresses accordingly. Tinsel and plastic green garlands decorate shop and café counters, Christmas trees loom in hotel and office lobbies, and rosy-cheeked paper cutouts of Santa's face decorate nearly every restaurant door. Yes, the city is well dressed, but how about you? Lifestyle went on a mission in search of classic Christmas clothing items – Santa hats, reindeer antlers and Christmas sweaters. Here's where to look, and where not to bother.
Yashow: expecting more, finding little
I expected to find some novel holiday clothes in Yashow Market, one of the most popular clothing markets among expatriates and tourists, but was disappointed to find only one store on the fourth floor offering Santa hats and stockings, with nothing that particularly jumped out at me or my wallet.
