Unlike most women, I do not enjoy spending hours on end in the malls shopping, but I do enjoy being outside! Sometimes I will put off getting the things I really need because I am never in the mood to go to the mall. So, I think I’ve found the solution – outdoor mall shopping! OMG!

On one of my recent “it’s a beautiful day so get out of the house” excursions, I landed at the new Allen shopping centers, The Village at Allen and The Village at Fairview. This – I can do!

The Villages are a new shopping development in Allen, Texas that boasts everything from an upscale movie theater and flower shops to Dillard’s, Macy’s and JCPenney department stores. I had a very enjoyable time dipping in and out the familiar and unfamiliar storefronts on a perfect 85 degrees afternoon!

Not only are there many awesome shops, there are also events, including a jazz concert series every second Saturday of the month, a wine walk, family movie night and live local bands every Thursday until July 29.

The Village at Allen and The Village at Fairview have a lot more to offer than just shopping. There is the Village Garden and a catch and release fishing area. The Village Beach is complete with sand volleyball courts, horseshoes AND…wait for it…tether ball – my personal childhood favorite!

This place is really cool, and it has a nice vibe. It’s way more than a shopping center, but more like a community!

A few businesses that are already there or will be coming soon are: Whole Foods, Bailey’s Prime Plus, Cyclone Anaya’s, La Duni, Gloria’s, I.O. Metro, and my personal favorite, Target!

Even for someone like me, this is a great place for shopping. And it offers adult or family fun. I recommend you check it out for whatever mood you’re in.
