Chinese style vs. Swedish Style

Since moving to Stockholm I have gotten lots of Asian friends;
The Chinese exchange students here are unfortunately not very fun people (compared to Singaporeans, because they know how to party!), they tend to be VERY shy and they ALL have horrible style. Then again, almost all exchange students have bad style. Here in Stockholm you can see if someone is an exchange student just by a glance of the person's clothes, which is quite sad as Stockholm people tend to dress in the same way.

However you can always discuss what is "good style". My relatives in Shanghai think I dress like a 50 years old woman. While a lot of Swedes think that Chinese girls dress like a twelve years old.

What do you prefer? Stockholm Streetstyle or Shanghai Streetstyle?

I picked Stockholm style because personally, I think a lot of Shanghainese girls dress like rejects from a Pat Benetar music video in the 80's. :P

I tried to find pics that truly represented each city's style. The stockholm picture I chose really shows the Swedish style as most of the people here wear that kind of clothes (including me), also in Shanghai I see a lot of girls wearing the clothes she does wear in the picture.

European styles are bolder, more simplified and trying to avoid the attention, I think...Asians like more colors and more delicate styles. They can be both good, when it comes to different physical features. Just the pictures posted here can not talk everything about them...

Is it really true that chinese exchange students are very shy compared to singaporean students.......is it because of some cultural reason?...and what do you mean by horrible style?
