There are two Premium (read: branded) Outlet Malls that were recommended by friends in Singapore and SF. They are Cabazon Outlet Malls and Desert Hills Outlet Malls. One’s bigger in scale then the other, and I don’t remember, but it doesn’t matter because they are just next by each other.
How to get to the Premium Outlets? Aside from the link we just provided, a search will give you not just info on the outlets, but also a map there. It’s Seminole Drive, off Highway 10.
We took 1.5 hours to get there from Pasadena, and used the GPS system. While I recovered from the tiredness of driving by sleeping in the car, she happily started shopping. I think Asians would like shopping here, especially for premium American brands like Coach and Burberry’s and CK. Are they American?? In any case, they close at 8pm, and by 6pm we were already tired. Discounts were aplenty, especially due to the crisis, and we could get discounts even after the 50% off, especially for lesser known brands.
Then we drove back. Another 1.5 hours.
