Cityscape in the desert




Last weekend I ventured out to Cityscape in downtown Phoenix. Until then, I never had the chance to check out what it had to offer. I figured it was time for a summer wardrobe and a quick glance at the downtown shops.

I headed over to the West of Soho shop first. The shop is a small boutique with very cute clothing and accessories. I, however, came out empty handed. (I am extremely picky about what I wear and the money I spend) The items were all reasonably priced, but I decided they were not for me. But I do recommend it!

I also headed over to Starbucks for a quick drink and rest (being about 106 degrees outside).

Next, I headed over to Urban Outfitters. After wandering around the store for a while, I also decided nothing there was for me. I was disappointed with the shop because I was hoping for a wide selection of cute dresses for the summer, most especially Maxi style dresses, which was the one item I was looking for, but they didn't have much to choose from.

I wandered around Cityscape a bit but decided that it was just too hot after about an hour.

All in all, I think its a great little area to hang out, when the time is right, and summer is not the right time. I do recommend more shaded spots. But the foundation in the middle of the court is nice and cute.

I think I'm more use to stores such as Forever 21 and Ulta. If Cityscape were to open those stores, I'm convinced it would be more popular!

I didn't have a chance to visit Charmin Charlie's, but that will be next on my list if I'm looking for any accessories.

I love Phoenix, and I am happy to see it expanding and growing. It still has a ways to go, but its getting there.

Keep bringing those shops around!

:D

Peace.
