Shopping in Seattle

[P.C.]

   lalala, Victoria Secret clothing (unless it's changed in the last 10 years) is of the best quality that I've seen than most clothing lines.  Their selection of bikinis is incredible.....on-line...don't know about the stores.  I've shopped VS on-line lots, and they are super helpful on the phone, great (and easy) return policy. (don't know about swimwear)  And of course they're very secure and credible to shop on-line with as well. although shipping and handling is no longer any bargain.

 Nordstrom is expensive. I don't know about you but all I could come out from that place is a hat for the little own. I was surprised to find children's clothes as high as $80 (Juicy Couture?) and on a sale rack.

  If you're looking for clothes, I'd just stop by the Premium Outlets. Once you hit there, you'll never want to shop anywhere else.

  Victoria Secret at the Pan Pacific Mall, I think it's on the 3rd floor. It's so-so IMHO. I find the intimate selection at good old Bay as adequate. Oh, if you're heading there, there's a really awesome Japanese place called Todai on the fourth floor. Good buffet.

  Spa treatment? Oh, just pick up any pamphlets or booklets at any hotels for info.[/DIV]

TJ Max and Ross are good places for GREAT bargains as well.  (Ross's is my fave)

P.C. and Lise thanks for the information.

  Does ROSS have a lot of sizes?  One of my friends told me to check it out... they got two pairs of 7's for $7 each.

  So with VS, bikini's can only be bought on-line?  I'm not sure I'll know if it fits me... plus, I wouldn't think you would be able to return it afterwards.

  Does Seattle have a gucci store?  If not, which would have the largest selection?  Probably premium outlets?!

TJ Maxx and Ross have a lot of everything-- think Winner's but bigger, cheaper, and more stuff.  Takes a bit of digging, but you can find good things
 
 Because it's the U.S.- I'll warn you....you will find a lot of shockingly large pieces of clothing...

lalala - I've seen Seven jeans (One for all Mankind) at Costco's downtown.  I have also seen other brand name ones (can't remember the names) for almost half the price at Aritzia.  I don't think they are there anymore but they do have other brand names.

I totally recommend Ross and TJ Maxx.  I could never find any clothes there but if you don't mind digging up piles of clothes, then, it's for you.

Premium Outlets would definitely have the brands you're looking for.  It's definitely more trendy and have more selection.

I think (but unsure) that Nordstrom do carry Gucci brand. I'm confusing the store with Macy but I'm like 80% sure they do carry it.

  I haven't come across a Gucci outlet at the Premium Outlets.

  If you're looking for bikinis, the Ralph Polo Factory outlet has some awesome stuff and they cost something like $40 US only.

Lots of people from work are telling me to go to this place in DT Seattle called Anthropologie?

  Has anyone gone there before?  What's it like?

  As for Seattle Premium, I think the only store I like in there will be Coach.  Probably do a lot of my shopping at Bellevue Square believe it or not.  It seems they have a lot of uniquey stores like Vivid.
