Import Shop Messe Berlin 2011

Today I payed a short visit to the import shop fair here in Berlin, http://www.importshop-berlin.de/. I didn't expect anything special, on the website there were pictures from past years with clothes, food, DIY stuff, home decoration and jewellery. I hoped to find some hair accessoires, but not a chance...

I have to confess: This fair wasn't worth the ticket. Even if it was quite colorful, but there were strange people around.

The shop where I took the soap pic smelled like a Lush shop (I really can't stand Lush!), but it was looking nice. When I was taking the next photo, the shop owner of the glass stuff was asking me if I am spying for the Chinese competitors to produce cheap copies... ha, haha... poor copies of glass stuff that already looked like a poor copy?!?! Sorry for that.

Seen one drum, seen them all. Same goes for the African shops... I thought I was on a poor copy (this time not a Chinese one xD) of the Carneval of Cultures.

Quite a nice place to rest, but little bit too esoteric...

The only good thing was a French shop, selling really high quality japanese style clothes (not the low asia market stuff). I bought some kind of obi there, but unfortunately they still don't have shops and are yet touring along fairs.

Just one click if you'd like to see their gorgeous collection: AOI.
