Hang out on Capitol Hill outside of Totokaelo or Glasswing. Or inside. Get to know the salespeople (they are all super cool). There's always some sort of fashion parties going on at these places, hang out there, meet the models, meet the photographers. Just be around.

I go to UW, so my experience won't be perfectly representative of what yours will be.
That said, in Seattle, I've found that the best dressed people are mostly Asians, the worst dressed people are mostly Asians, with the white people generally dressing for comfort / utility in the middle.
Tumblrcore / bushy-bearded flannel "indie" (yikes) is the main aethestic, it seems.

That said, there's Totokaelo, a Barney's, and Blue Owl. I like it here.

Sorry man; don't pay attention to that.

Check out resident advisor for these clubs: Corsica Studios, Dance Tunnel, Plastic People (anything by 'Electric Minds' or 'Tief').

Best shopping is in Soho (not far from oxford street); Try Albam, Liberty, Sunspel, YMC. and also in Shoreditch (Anthem, Goodhood, Present).

Good restuarants are everywhere, look at tripadvisor for whatever area you're in.

Pubs: Proper experinece look for Samuel Smiths pubs (lots around the City), for Craft beef Holborn and Shoreditch, also the Euston Tap is a great spot.

You find one, you tell me. I've found some cool shit in thrift stores, but anything worth any sort of resale is barely worth checking out because they'll mark up whatever than can get, and places like buffalo & other wicker places do their homework. Maybe check out an Elliot's consignment. They sometimes have some quality shit, and they're reasonable and willing to negotiate.

We need a Chicago meetup. /fa/ minded people are so spread out here.

beijing is really really cool for eating out and having dumb fun

dont count on being too effay, people kinda dress like shit plus its hot as shit

no cheap shit to cop, but check out croquois/broadcast, it's a new chinese contemporary brand and its actually pretty sick would recommend if you like jap designers
price point is mid range, well worth it

fakes are shit and the only fakes you'll find will be pretty much mall tier crap brands
if you want to cop fakes go on taobao, courier shipping is dirt cheap in domestic china

if you a baller kinda person go nuts at the sanlitun village, MMM, Y-3, I.T. and all that shit there. I recommend staying at the opposite house there for a night if you're into boutique hotels, if you cant afford that at least get a coffee in the lobby, the interior of the whole building is rad as fuck

which university you going to?

if you go to tsing hua you already live right next to party town in wudaokou, else there's sanlitun around the worker's stadium
be sure to bring earplugs, chinese clubs dont give a fuck about blowing your eardrums out
casual sex def harder with locals than it is in the states or europe, but expats should be as usual (white girls are a little low in demand in bj cause all the white dudes want to live out their cultural fetishes you dig so they ez)

but yeah, beijing is not very /fa/, doesn't mean it can't be fun though.

the one place /fa/ would probably like is the 798 art district and the hutongs around the llama temple(greatest sushi I ever had in beijing was in a hole in the wall place, forgot the store name tho) with its bo-bo hipster crowd

so yeah um, just take your time mang

for /fa/ advice just walk in Paris, clothes everywhere, A great place for men is St-lazare/Opéra where you'll find Uniqlo, Printemps/Galaries lafayette, both retailers of a lot of brands. And a shit load of individual shops around. Or in Le marais for more independant brands.

For food you wanna check thefork.com, don't know for others cities but works great for Paris (higly recommends Pizza Wawa on it, cheap tasty pizza! or Mamie Tavennec for pancake!)
For burger some say that bigfernand.com are the best..
For nightlife, it could be anywhere really, bastille, châtelet, pigalle, grands boulevards.. people says that parisians are rough, but we are all the same few drinks later!

Ideally, I'd like to be able to live in Paris for a little while at least, but fuck if I know how to make that happen with no money at all.

Meanwhile, I've been looking towards New York. Something even remotely close to the city would be nice. Is it even possible for one to be able to afford a 1bedroom apartment near the city without seeking roommates?
