Malls / Outlets, Las Vegas

This shopping mall reminds me of a space ship and it looks a little out of place on the Strip, yet it is the sign of the times that the future there is always change.

It is one of the nation's largest shopping centers and Las Vegas' premier retail destination, Fashion Show. High end stores such as Saks Fifth Avenue, Dillard's, Neiman Marcus, Macy's, Nevada's only Nordstrom, and Bloomingdale's and another 250 shops and restaurants.

Mall Hours
Monday-Saturday: 10:00am-9:00pm
Sunday: 11:00am-7:00pm

With 1.2 million square feet of retail space and more than 170 shops, restaurants and carts, The Boulevard mall lives up to its claim of being "Nevada's Largest Mall." The mall has so many stores that it easily could be cluttered, but it's quite the opposite. The design is modern and functional, with block lettering in a simple, clean style. The walkways are adorned with palms, and it really does feel like you are walking down a boulevard -- but not one in Vegas! The Boulevard mall is where you go when you want to do some serious shopping.

Parking Suggestion: In the back next to Dillard's.

What to buy: Refer to http://www.boulevardmall.com/html/ for a complete list of shops.

The Fashion Outlet on the border between California and Nevada has unbelievable stores with even better savings. If you love couture items, but don't like the steep price tages, go to NEIMAN MARCUS LAST CALL, the outlet for the high-scale department store. This place has it all: men's, women's and children's fashions, handbags, amazing shoe selection and even home decor items. They also carry TUMI luggage for all the avid VT travelers.

What to buy: For women, I would highly recommend the shoes. They carry designers such as Prada, Gucci, Stuart Weitzman, Kate Spade, Cole Haan and more at up to 75% off. NEIMAN MARCUS LAST CALL also carries lesser known Italian designers whose shoes are unique and incredibly well-crafted. For men, the ties and suits are beautiful and the store also carries a great selection of travel luggage and briefcases.

What to pay: You will spend a hefty sum of cash, but you will leave with BAGS and BAGS of new items.

If you were just heading to Las Vegas to do some shopping at the outlet malls Las Vegas outlet Mall (South) and the Las Vegas Premium Outlets (North) I would try and stay down the South end of the strip NYNY,Excalibur,MGM,Tropicana.. The reason for this is that to get to the South outlets you have to get on the Express bus which is out the front of the Excalubur..

The best way to get to the Premium Outlets(North) was the new WAX Route(Started 12 Dec 2010, Not sure if they were trialing this route or it was permanant) where it avoided the strip and went straight up highway 215 to the premium outlets exit.. A 10min ride.. No stops in between

If you get on the Express going North up the strip it can take up to 25-40min from MGM as you go via Downtown etc

Fashion Show Mall is beside Treasure Island and across from Wynn/Encore. You'll see it from afar and say "what is that?!? A UFO!!" It's known in many of the travel books for having fashion shows while shopping there. I wasn't there long but I sure didn't see anything like that. However, it has many of the stores I'm used to seeing in Houston...your typical shops in most malls. Therefore, I looked around for a second and headed somewhere else. But, it's nice to know where to go if you lost your luggage or something and don't want to pay gift shop prices.

Monday-Saturday: 10:00am-9:00pm
Sunday: 11:00am-7:00pm

(So not like Vegas to close in such a normal time)

What to buy: Normal mall purchases

What to pay: Cheaper than the gift shops!

We discovered that Las Vegas has a China Town. It is graced by a lovely crafted traditional Chinese Arch. The centerpiece is of the plaza is graced by a beautiful gold statue of the Journey to the West of Xuan Zang and the Monkey God is from the classical Tong Dynasty-era Chinese literature.

This boulevard is lined with all sorts of businesses. Many are restaurants, markets, and but there are many wonderful shops to choose from. So if your looking for something from the orient, you don't have to go far.

You need to cab to the outlet malls from your hotel on the strip. We went to Las Vegas Premiere Outlet Mall. High end shops (Dolce Gabbana, Armani) with a lot of regular shops (eg. Banana Republic). Everything from jewellry, clothing, shoes, children, luggage, gifts, and there's a food court. It's an outside mall, everything is accessible from the walkways outside (no cars). You will get brand names for cheap here. I couldn't find a size medium for my sons to save my life so ended up having to go to the Fashion Show Mall. But I did find an Oakley jacket regular $100 on for $50! My son loves it. I also bought myself a pair of Nine Wests for $40 (CRAZY good). Gio cologne was cheap.

Fashion Show Mall is high end stores, and department stores like Macey's, Bloomingdales, Nordstrom. There's a runway in one part of the mall and there's fashion shows at certain times. I went to a store called Ruehl, and bought some expensive Greenwich Village shirts for my sons. The Fashion Show Mall is right next to Treasure Island hotel, and across from Wynn Hotel.

What to buy: Clothes, shoes, cologne, anything and everything. Luggage! Bose radios.

What to pay: Depends of course on what you're purchasing and where you are. You can save at the outlet malls and spend through the nose at the Forum Shops at Caesar's where the rich and famous shop.

Macy's is roomy and inviting, and even when there's an overflow of shoppers, it's easy to make your way through.

We purchased a couple of clothes from one of the two Macy's Stores in the Fashion Show Mall in Las Vegas. It is a good place to shop for clothings for the adults and teens in your family. Macy's is specialized in clothings for men, women, and teenagers.

Do not miss Macy's. It is the place to shop!
