Located north of the Miami Beach area, Aventura is a large 3 level enclosed shopping mall. With over 250 stores, there is a good range of everything, along with plenty of free parking (or valet parking if you prefer). It is also on bus routes from Miami Beach and surrounding areas.
We visited Aventura one afternoon and ended up shopping for around 6 hours, which is a pretty impressive effort for me. I was particularly keen to get to Aventura as there is a Macy's and Bloomingdales there, and these were two shops that I enjoyed exploring on a previous trip to New York, Although these stores were nowhere near as big here compared to NYC, they still had plenty to offer.
There were plenty of chain and boutique stores to keep both Alex and I occupied. There were numerous cafes for the required caffeine hit, such as Paul Patisserie where we stopped off. There is also a large food hall and a couple of restaurants, including Sushi Siam where we had lunch (see restaurant tip for more details).
Mix of designer and regular shops, so something for everyone Leave a Comment Theme: Department StorePhone: (305) 935-1110Directions: 19501 Biscatne Blvd. Aventura (just north of Miami Beach), Florida 33180 Refer to website for bus information Mall Hours: Monday-Saturday 10:00 am - 9:30 pm Sunday 12:00 pm - 8:00 pmWebsite: http://www.shopaventuramall.com/index.html

CVS is a great place to get a few items you may need during your visit to Miami Beach. Not only do they have the usual drug store items, but this particular CVS also has Miami Beach souvenirs, towels, t-shirts, hats, flip-flops and your usual destination items.
They also have a large selection of snacks, water, drinks, sandwiches, etc. Leave a Comment Theme: Other

 Ferni in his new purchase by Gypsystravels
The shop has so many wonderful shirts to choose from. From short sleeve to long sleeve, trendy t-shirts, dress shirts (like the one Ferni got), slacks, jeans and all sorts of accessories, it was like heaven for my babe.
A Fabulous shirt for my babe. The shirt is a light linen with a cut out design which makes it a perfect shirt for the heat in Miami Beach.
Will be back with store information
Ferni shirt was about $89 on sale, but there were plenty of other shirts ranging from $59-$129. Jeans were about $89 and up and the dress slacks started at $129 and up.
The accesories ranged from trendy bracelets, chains and rings which all started at about $15 and up. Leave a Comment Theme: Men's Clothes

 Lincoln Road Mall by chrissyalex
Collins Avenue. If you are looking for a concentration of designer stores such as Armani,Ralph Lauren,Versace and Benetton go the the southern part of Collins Street
Sprinkled along Washington Avenue are some cool boutiques with funky clothes. I loved the dresses there. It was just window shopping for me. I really wanted to buy one, but being from a small city, probably the only place I would have the chance to wear one of these dresses would be while I was there in South Beach.
Clothing and swimwear. You will go to the beach frequently while you are here. If you want to buy some new beach
wear, you will not have to look far. There are shops everywhere with a range of selections. From a functional $20 bikini to interesting nonfunctional creations worn only to be seen in. I must admit, the bikini with the silk flower top was awfully darn cute, but with the hit of one wave, it would be gone!
What the tag states Leave a Comment Theme: OtherDirections: Lincoln Road Mall is located on Lincoln Road at 16th street and stretches for several blocks

 Bayside Marketplace by Dutchnatasja
There are many restaurants where you can eat and where you can enjoy a beautiful waterfront view of Biscayne Bay. From Italian to Cuban, seafood to steaks, it’s hard to choose.
You can have a fruity tropical drink from a stand in the centre of the water-facing side of the market. Relax and enjoying, do some shopping. It’s a great way to spend your afternoon. A whole day is something to much for me. I’ve seen it all in about 2 hours.
For shopping, or just a lunchtime stop, I highly recommend you try the Bayside Marketplace. Many local sightseeing cruises leave from ports nearby.
Just look for the 60 foot guitar above the Hard Rock Cafe, and you know you have arrived.

If you are interested in going mall shopping, I would suggest, depending on your budget and what you are looking for:
Aventura or Dadeland: in both of these you will find department stores such as Burdines, as well as all the franchise stores like Guess, Gap, ZARA, Abercrombie, Victoria's Secret, etc... Aventura is bigger and has more variety though. Aventura is located at 19501 Biscayne Blvd and Dadeland on Kendall Dr (SW 88th St) and US1.
Bal Harbour on the other hand has all the very high end boutiques like Gucci and Hermes. location: 125th Street and Collins
http://www.balharbourshops.com
Last but not least, Sawgrass Mills, which is further away near Fort Lauderdale, but is cheaper as it has all the outlets.... located at 12801 West Sunrise Boulevard Leave a Comment Theme: Other

Shopping in Miami usually happens in malls, such as Aventura or Dadeland. It is not like in other places like NYC or Europe where you are able to walk in the streets and wander different boutiques. The only good exception is Collins Avenue on South Beach where you can walk around and shop designer's boutiques as well as all the franchises. If you have time, you can also take the side streets off Collins and wander around Washington but the shops are more sparse.
Coconut Grove also has that but in a much smaller scale.
