Solenad 2 shops facing Solenad 1. Beaming along Nuvali road and the highway. |
Just a quick note, my husband gasped wondering at the prices in one of the shops there. He asked, "these are outlet prices?". The sales associate clarified that these shops are BRANCH stores and not outlets.
Remember, outlet stores are in Paseo de Santa Rosa, run by Greenfield Development. Solenad 2 of Ayala Land, which also has Bench stores, Payless, Nine West, and some others that are in Paseo, is not meant to be an "outlet" shopping mall.
Just gets a bit confusing because the outlets in Paseo generally display their merchandise in 'regular store' fashion. Except I guess in places like the Bench Depot where Charles &Keith shoes are in bins and piled on the floor; Brand Smart, where clothes tags are trimmed but are obviously Zara brands (and possibly knock-offs, really); and where discounted prices are boldly displayed on shelves.
All this info isn't really essential to life; just fun I guess. And forgive my husband for his retail ignorance. He's a simple man who isn't aware of retail merchandising. Can't quite make the link between a display that looks expensive marketing-wise, fashion seasons, and price. The bottom line is what speaks to him of course.
