When in Need of a Kerchief in Old Shanghai….

Posted: October 4th, 2016 | No Comments »

Now I’m a man who believes in a handkerchief rather than some scrappy old serviette or tissue. I also think a kerchief/head scarf a handy item for the ladies in case of typhoon winds or sudden plum rains – Grace Kelly probably did them with most style (below). So the Shanghai Kerchief Store, in the Central Arcade, just off the Nanking Road by the Cathay (Pace, if you must) Hotel was a useful place to pop into.
