text: The Fashion Show Mall is a place to see and be seen. The high class department stores and shops draws in a certain crowd and it feels like very little shopping gets done. \n\nI am a big fan of walking the malls. I love the outdoor ones, but when summer is in full effect, I engage in some A/C perusing. While I love some window shopping, sometimes you want to walk out with something to show for it and I consistently leave empty handed. There are rarely any deals worth taking advantage of. Although the Fashion Show is home of my favorite stores, I would rather go to Town Square or the outlets to get Banana Republic, GAP, or Express.\n\nThe plus side is that this mall often holds fashion shows or cool events on the rise up stage near the Apple Store.
