Mall at Millenia is just stunning (it has a few designer shops though) its real eye candy :spin:

The florida mall is the best one i found for a variety of 'high street' shops and just generally a great experience and the LBV premium outlets is the best for cheaper clothes (Banana republic, gap, nike etc..) and its partly outside too so you dont miss out on the fab Florida sunshine :grin:

Altamonte Springs Mall up by Sanford Airport- two floors, better than Florida Mall and not full of us Brits trying to snap up cheap Levi's ;)

Alternatively for a quieter "experience" the Eagle Ridge Mall on the US27, much more sedate.

I just loved this place and they have the Cheese cake factory there too. I was not really bothered about shopping but so gald I went here and its so beautiful. They have a dicovery store and we were in it for over a hour. The food we had was also brill. I thought it may be a little posh for us but when we got there it was posh but it did not make you feel out of place. This mall and Florida mall have to be my fave. :wavey: :d: :wavey:

I used to live 5 mins away from the Altamonte Mall and it is a huge mall with loads of bargains!!! I always go there at least once each trip and pick up some amazing bargains. Us Brit's are astounded at the prices in the US, but the americans expect further discounts. Because of this, (and that very few brit's venture up to this mall) the sales and discounts are incredible!!!!

I would say Premium Outlets as there are quite a few sports shops there, nike, adidas, puma etc

I suppose it depends on what experience you like.

Window shopping (unless you're very rich) Mall at Millennia (although Hagen Dazs worth a visit)

Sales - Premium Oulet Mall

Department stores - Florida Mall

Personally we do all 3 to cover all bases, and I usually skip Beltz (don't think it's up to much now a days - but could just be me?)
