mr.minglesworth said:i am from tampa, but go to orlando once in a while for the millenia mall, which im pretty sure has not been there for 6 years...it has lv, chanel, jimmy choo, neiman, gucci, and then like lacoste, burberry, banana republic, urban outfitters, tiffany, etc. oh, and a macy's...
the premium outlets, IMO, are really bad...when i went there, it was full of euro tourists who were buying hideous yellow burberry trenchcoats and versace speedos like no one's business. i wouldnt bother unless you want to stop into like ralph lauren, which is usually sorta fail-proof...
there is a saks too, somewhere, but its not at millenia.
hope this helps.
for even better shopping, go to miami. i havent been in forever, but every designer has a store there...
mr.minglesworth said:shopping in new york/miami is much more preferably IMO.
i just went to NYC for spring break, and was much more excited about shopping at those stores there, because they have entire collections, complete with RTW and shoes and bags and jewelry.
the high-end stores in orlando (and tampa) only have bags and shoes...and even then they dont get the entire selection of bags and shoes.
i was actually really surprised that the gucci store in orlando didnt have ready-to-wear, although it has been a while since i have been so maybe they do now.
for me it is good though, that those stores arent stocked-full, because i would probably never have any money...
mr.minglesworth said:at millenia last i checked...unless they closed it, but i would be very surprised...
mr.minglesworth said:everyone at millenia looked at me like i was clearly in the wrong place...especially the men and women at louis vuitton and gucci. the only place that the SAs were particularly nice was at the burberry store.
at the louis vuitton and gucci in tampa, however, the SAs are generally nice.
if you ever get the the tampa LV, ask for SA Dalas (that is what it said on my receipt), and if you ever get to gucci, ask for brandon. both of them were very helpful
