Most women love to shop, that is a given. It's not just the excitement of finding a bargain or the best fitting jeans it is also a social event. Due to our multi-tasking natures, women feel they need to accomplish something while they get together with their friends so lunch and shopping or shopping and a cocktail just seems like a natural thing to do. To take it one step further, shopping is becoming a trendy building block for a girlfriend getaway. And while it may not always be a focal point of the girlfriend getaway, shopping is quickly becoming a component of it. From world-class shopping destinations like New York and Miami to fantastic outlet shopping and endless antiquing, women all across the country are looking to plan their getaways around shopping.
Dallas, Texas has become a shopping hot-spot over the past 5 years. With malls, outlets and the first shopping center in America. Dallas offers beautiful indoor and outdoor shopping experiences. For a more unique shopping destination visit San Francisco. In this coastal city you'll find small boutiques and vintage clothing stores, quaint jewelry shops, and large department stores not to mention Fisherman's Wharf, Union Street, and Ghiradelli Square; always buzzing and within walking distance (leave the heels at the hotel). It's a good place to people watch too. And when you talk about shopping you cannot omit Chicago. The Magnificent Mile offers 460 stores in 8 city blocks. Oak Street will have you gliding through upscale boutiques and specialty stores. Travel on to State Street in the heart of the city for the Midwest's largest jewelry district.
