Hi, I was wondering what is you fave mall in Orlando? I have been spending the past week trying to decide which Mall to go to.
I see that premium outlets is very popular however I am not into the sports brands and not many of the brands appeal to me.
I like the look of Mall @ Millenia for Victoria secret, Vans, Juicy couture, urban outfitters plus can get designer jeans at Bloomingdales for which I would pay the same price in $ that I would in £ here.

DD and I are big fans of the Florida Mall! We buy 7 For All Mankind designer jeans in Saks, Victoria Secrets undies, Yankee Candle tarts and anything at Sephora! CAN"T WAIT to stock up in October... :cloud9:

I love the Florida Mall - Sephora and Aveda shop for me, Surf shops for Dh and the department stores for jeans etc.
I do love the Mall at the Millenia as well for Bloomingdales and Macys. One day I will get my Jimmy Choos :rolleyes1

Not really into clothes shopping more of a gadgets girl myself. However, we went to the Mall of Millennia for the first time in August and it was a lovely mall so I would recommend a visit here.
Premium Outlets is good for cut price Disney stuff, sports goods and shoes. The Florida Mall is nice too. Basically we were just visiting Hollister clothes shops because that is what the eldest was after.
I wasn't really that taken with the Prime Outlets or whatever it is called (used to be Belz). It did have a Disney Store but it hadn't opened on my visit.

we don't do our power shopping in orlando (we save that for Detroit when we visit family), so our mall escapades are not really for shopping but just as a diversion - so having said that, our favorite in orlando is the mall @ millenia...
the one time we were at the Florida Mall, we couldn't stand it....too big, too crowded and too dirty....but as i said, we weren't there for power shopping....had we been, i might have a different opinion...

Probably the Mall Of Millenia, mainly because of the fab Tommy Bahama store, but also like the fact it never seems as crowded as the Florida Mall.
It also feels more exclusive there and you don't tend to get as many tourists.

We love the Florida Mall - so many shops to choose from plus you have the large department stores too :) There aren't as many 'designer outlets' as the other malls, but then I'm not a designer label junky so it doesn't bother me :)
The food court is quite good too.

I like the Premium Outlets, and Florida Mall, oh and Mall @ Millenia...... hmmm I am not much help!
We usually tend to try and get half a day at each and then pop back for anything else that we may want to get toward the end of the holiday.

I like premium outlets for the general cheaper stuff, but as we are there over xmas normally you can't beat the sales at Florida Mall. I also love walmart, but at the end of the day i just love shopping!!! lol

We always get taxis to the malls as we stay onsite and don't drive over there either, we tend to visit all the regulars Florida Mall, Premium outlets and Walmart, prices are good, but make sure you get in the legal ones.

oooh malls my fave topic
I love the Florida mall but then I love them all!!
I think the yankee candle store at the mall loves me back though lol
Mall at Millennia definitely my favourite - lot's of shops that i buy things in - LaCoste, Hugo Boss etc.
Plus Bloomingdales is much better than the other department stores for me.
Didn't really like The Florida Mall really.
Oh and Mall at Millennia has the Cheesecake Factory too, yummmmm

I vote Mall at Millennia too! :thumbsup2 I am now a proud owner of two pairs of Jimmy Choos :snooty: :rotfl: from my visits there.Yes they are expensive, :rolleyes1 but would have been double the price here and I would definitely not be able to afford that!

Mall at Mellienia has more 'up market' shops, but premium outlet has a more general range of designer shops. The revamped Belz now called Prime Outlet International has phase 1 complete and phase 2 is well underway. I think this will attract custom from Premium Outlets, being a newer complex
