Weekend at San Diego

This weekend was awesome; I spent it at one of my favorite places in the world, San Diego, CA.
Since I live in Mexico, I can't find things that I like and It's really great when I have the time and money to go to SD for some shopping.

First, I went to one of my favorite stores to shop affordable clothing: Forever 21, or Heritage 1981 for men. I love that not many men know about that section at F21 and they think it's only for girls.



Then I went to Nordstrom, H&M, American Apparel, and at the end of the day, to Bloomingdales. There, I was searching for some new things, and at the Marc by Marc Jacobs rack, I found these two amazing shirts. I loved the print on the first one and I absolutely adored the metal dots or whatever they're called. I got one of them, guess which one...




The second one!!! =D And I haven't worn it yet, maybe I'll make a photo-shoot with it...

After shopping we went to my favorite hamburger chain in the world: IN N OUT, gosh I can't have enough of it. Then we went to the hotel and the next day we were at Ensenada, BC Mexico again.

Saks closing doors

Yesterday, I was at Fashion Valley mall in San Diego, California. And it caught my eye that Saks Fifth Avenue is closing its doors, due to underperforming locations to boost its bottom line. They´re closing in San Diego and they already have closed at Portland, Oregon. “The planned closing of our San Diego store is consistent with our strategy of focusing our resources on our most productive stores,” said Saks chief executive Steve Sadove.

The question here is why one of the most prestigious store in the city is going for good. I personaly believe that southern californians are not that interested in high fashion. Another reason could be the economical crisis that we´re still embracing. Some stores could handle it, some of them not. I´m kind of sad that they´re leaving. It gave the mall some kind of status. Oh btw, thay had a cleaning sale with discounts from 10 to 30% off.
