Robinson's Starmills|Outlet Stores

This will be a Long Read, so let me get over the stores I dropped by:
  • All Flip Flops [Havaianas]
  • BrandSmart [Lacoste, Armani Exchange, Polo RL, Nine West, Calvin Klein]
  • Guess
  • Mango
  • Plains and Prints
  • Sports and Fashion [Nike, Gas, Sisley, Benetton]
  • American Rag [Terranova and other unrecognized brands]

I went home during the holidays and passed by Robinson’s Starmills, which is VERY visible when you take the San Fernando Exit of the NLEX. This is fronting SM Pampanga.

Just to set your expecations, Robinson's Starmills is not filled up with glam stores. It so happened, it just has Outlet Stores, the second floor of the mall, if not for the FoodCourt, Department Store, and some Gadget store, would be empty.

All Flip Flops [Havaianas]
They have two shops[see picture above]. On the left is the Outlet store, and on the right, is the regular store. Let me focus on the Outlet store.

[Good]
They have several designs for you to choose(well, at least on the day I was there, imagine Summer)

[Not So Good]
Discounts are only at around 20% to 30%. Was thinking of bigger discounts, but that’s what they only offer.




BrandSmart
I love this store. BrandSmart is from the Store Specialists which carries imported brands, such as Lacoste, Armani Exchange, Polo RL, Nine West, Calvin Klein to name a few. I’ll share on another blog other branches they have in Manila—So Subscribe. =)

A few years ago, I was able to buy Armani Long Sleeves for about P500 to P700. That was like Heaven.

When I visited, their Long Sleeves go for about P1090-P2000, from P4000.

Nine West shoes are at P2500 from P5000.

For Lacoste, they carry a very wide range of Bags, for a not so Bad discount, some are ranging from 10% to 20%.

They also have Liz Claiborne accessories.



Guess
This one is an Outlet Store, discounts are really good. A pair of Pants can go below P1000. Wicked!

They sell Men’s, Women’s, Children’s Clothings, and Accessories.

A watch can go 50% off. But if you feel that Robinson’s Pampanga, I’ll share a Guess Outlet Store which maybe near you. This, of course, via another Blog, so keep subscribing. =)


Mango
Last Season’s fashion, yet, they carry a lot of Cuts and Designs, from Tops, Skirts, Pants, Accessories, Bags, Eyewear, Belts, etc. All that you can see in a regular Mango Store, can be found here, as long as you’ve seen them last season. =))

This, by far, is the Outlet Store in this mall, which has the most number of Items on Display. Second is Guess, Third is Plains and Prints.
Discounts are good, from 10% to 50%.
This is where I usually buy my Best Bud, her usual gift from me, Mango Stuff.
Happy New Year MSH.
Btw, I posted recently a blog about Mango on Sale, check it out for the participating Branches.

Plains and Prints
For the corporate people, or people who need casual, semi-formal to somewhat formal clothes, this place is a good stop.

Aside from the 50%, they also have an ongoing promo of “Buy 3, for P997.50”. Cool, Aye.
The cuts are not so Last Season. You can always mix them with a good accessory.

Sports and Fashion [Nike, Gas, Sisley, Benetton]
This store is a disappointment.:(

It says it has about 4 brands, yet, it only has Nike Stuffs, and the worst news, only the shoes are saleable, the other items, are almost near UKAY UKAY condition.

See Jacket in the picture.

Their shoes are priced relatively fair, some are at 50%.

There are other better Outlet Store of Nike compared to this one.

American Rag [Terranova and other unrecognized brands]
I strongly feel that the store already gave up on Terranova and is just waiting for the store to just close. Hahaha.

This was previously Terranova Outlet Store, now, it’s just included as one of the Brands It carries, though the other three, I haven’t heard of.

Their men’s line is very edgy, reminds me of PRP[People are People].

I'll be posting other Outlet Stores, so subscribe or follow me on twitter, my next ones would be
  • People Are People
  • Guess

If you know of other Outlet Stores, shoot me an email at saleandalternatives@gmail.com.
