Winter Shopping In The Desert: Fashion Show, Las Vegas, NV

When most of the country is frozen over with snow and ice, maybe it’s time to take a trip out to the desert, where the weather is temperate and the nightlife is hot. Las Vegas is known for the gambling and parties, but there’s also great shopping to be had. Especially at the Fashion Show Mall.

The mall itself spans two million square feet of upscale shopping pleasure, with stores like Saks, Dillard’s and Macy’s. The Nordstrom is huge, three levels. There are also over 250 shops and restaurants to get everything you need for yourself or the home, with a gourmet bite to eat while you’re at it.

The Fashion Show has an 80-foot retractable runway in its Great Hall where it has runway fashion shows year-round. Hence the name… www.thefashionshow.com.
