Good Morning Del Amo Fashion Center!

I was recently treated to a wonderful early morning affair, the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony for the newly renovation of Del Amo Fashion Center hosted by Simon Malls.

I was more then excited to receive this invitation, the mention of this mall takes me back to my younger days. I can remember shopping here for many special occasions, dresses for Friday nights and always found the best outfits for New Years Eve Celebrations!  The Del Amo Mall was know all over the world the iconic  landmark was the largest shopping mall in the US. When in LA it was one of the most requested places to visit by all! But, in 1992 the Mall of America took the crown.

Well, Del Amo Fashion Center is in transformation, the $200 million expansion will move them to the top of the charts in lifestyle entertainment with new places to shop, eat and play in the South Bay! The combination of indoor and outdoor shopping and the soon to be “Restaurant Row” will be delightfully amazing. While waiting on the new dinning expansion a garden-inspired dining pavilion in the heart of the shopping center is now open for business. The Grand Opening of the new Fashion Wing  and the expansion will bring many new upscale retailers, just in time for the upcoming holiday season.

 

 

Simon Malls knows how to throw a party!

I was welcomed with a little black bag and a mimosa followed by simply elegant trays of hors d’ourves being passed of almost every variety.  The aroma of the crap station filled the air with notes of flavor as if it were music, the choice was yours with the offering of savory or sweet. My palate happen to call for savory.

All the joy, buzz and laughter that filled the outdoor shopping area was infectious as the hot sun began to bid us good day with the heat of its glow. But, not even the heat can damper this wonderful way for any shopper to start their day with friends and like mind people at the Del Amo Fashion Center! Suddenly the chatter broke; everyone’s attention was requested. The silence led to introductions and talk of the journey to reach the Ribbon Cutting Ceremony.

See, I told you I was treated to an early morning affair! This event was a precursor to the tip of the iceberg The Grand Opening of Nordstrom at the Del Amo Fashion Center!! Stay tuned…I’ll circle back around with the inside info on my look from the inside out on opening day!!
