Florida Mall- DO NOT PARK BY SEARS
Met some nice folks from Great Britain at Mall of Milennia today. They said that they didn't like Florida Mall... They didn't even realize that there is a NICE part to the mall, they missed it...
Florida Mall has 350+ stores; and half of them are downscale- not bad, just boring. If you are looking for nice quality and a great shopping experience, you need to be in the NEWER part of the mall.
Park by Macy's or Nordstrom or the M&M store. Or Dillard's. Then you will be near the new wing. In the new part, you'll find these great stores and fun finds:

Park by Macy's or Nordstrom or the M&M store. Or Dillard's. Then you will be near the new wing. In the new part, you'll find these great stores and fun finds:
- M&M Store- huge and fun.
- Adrenalina- great surf shop with indoor surf tank, fun to watch!
- Saks Fifth Avenue- can't be beat for gifts, makeup, perfume, designer purses, good quality costume jewelry, men's designer ties, overall a nice experience with great customer service.
- Nordstrom- more great service, wonderful womens accessories, samples of any perfume in little bottle, nice coffee stop/shop, big MAC and Bobbie Brown cosmetics counters, cute and surprisingly reasonable kids clothes.
- Sephora- great makeup store with lots of top brand make-up and perfume. Also mens cologne. DON'T MISS. Locals travel far to shop at Sephora. Makeovers and advice are free and helpful.
- Abercrombie and Fitch- where saleskids are called "models" for a reason. Cute, preppy, all-American clothes that last FOREVER. Pricey, but the quality is really good. If you have multiple kids, buy for the oldest and they will all want to wear them. We give them to cousins after that and they still look new! NOTE: F. Mall has two Abercrombie stores- one for kids and one for adults.
- Banana Republic- if you have to dress decent for work and are between 28-59, go to BR. Great quality, current styles, help is well-trained and friendly. Some are so good, they act as stylists, giving great advice as you try things on, but never obtrusively or without invitation. This is the only store credit card I have, it's that good.
- LOTS MORE.
Mall of Milennia jewelry sales- GO NOW
Next to the upstairs food court at Mall of Milennia, you'll find three types of jewelry- young trendy jewelry at Forever 21 (no sale needed, it is crazy inexpensive, some items look like they cost hundreds!), upscale watches and designer lines at going out of business Park Promenade (20 to 50% off now, will keep going down, but so will selection) and 80% off on good copies of In Style magazine favorites at Landau.
For example, I bought 4 items at Landau. $10 for 1" David Yurman-copy hoops (too cute and too real-looking to believe) for everyday, 10$ for gorgeous waterfall earrings (what the stylists say we should wear instead of tiny studs that no one sees) and $20 each for two EXCELLENT copies of 24" necklaces- one Heidi Klum's expensive (18K) line and one a dead ringer for a $2000 14k necklace. Landau has upgraded their line from the original fake studs and pearls.
If you are a Yurman fan- rush in to see the cuff bracelets that are on sale. Dead ringers.
Landau excels at the almost forgotten art of customer service. All 4 of my finds were brought to me by the very nice woman who helped me. An English woman in the store looking for jewelry to match a special occasion dress was equally pleased and bought beautiful pieces that would have cost thousands in their original incarnation.
