Eshakti is fun because you can kind of design your own dress in the color you want. DD has ordered from them and the quality was very good.

Thank you for posting this!
I’ll pass it along to DD for her to look at

We met you at Battle Creek's mall and the Meridian Mall up in Lansing and yes MANY years ago!!

I recall, fun meets, Kitty. I remember at one of them, the boys went off to a movie or an arcade for a time.

Thank you for posting this - they were fun to look at.
I looked for mine, but couldn’t find them. I think they are still in my camera, which I haven’t used in over 10 years. I better charge that camera up and get everything off of it. I‘m very curious on what’s all there.

Fun times.

Get that camera, Sandy. I bet there are some good pictures in it.

I voted a few times a month. Our mall has so many stores I love: Lilly Pulitzer, Bath and BodyWorks, Yankee Candle, Athleta, Dicks, Sephora, Talbots, Tommy Bahama, Dillards, Pottery Barn, LL Bean, Old Navy, Chico's. I just like walking around sometimes.

I used to go to the Mall quite a bit - I would buy most of my clothes from Macy's. Now, I don't go too much. I do buy a lot from Torrid online and have it shipped to the store, so I have to run into the mall to pick it up, but luckily Torrid is right in one of the entrances, so it is quick to get in and out.

Speaking of Malls. This is an early photo from the Cherry Hill Mall ,one of( if not) the first in the U.S.
One visit as a pre-teen I witnessed ( with my family) a wedding party getting pictures with the foliage. Looking back maybe that was where they met.

“Practically never” would be my answer. I relocated in 2019 and have been to two malls, one time each, in that time. Once, because I was tagging along with my husband when he had to return something he ordered online to a store location. The other was to check out our new-to-us local mall. It was one of the largest in the country when it opened and I’d heard it was still pretty nice, so I was curious to see it. Even though that mall is still doing okay by today’s mall standards, the whole thing is about to be redeveloped into a huge multi-use LiveWorkPlay development so it’s days are numbered. Multi-use developments seem to be the wave of the future — there are at least 10 that I know of going up within a 5 mile radius of my house. I wonder if they’re going to be more resilient long term or if, 20 years from now, they will be the next dying mall.

ETA: My friend and her two kids are coming to visit next month. I asked the 13 year old daughter what she wanted to do while they’re here and she replied, “Do you have a mall?” I was surprised kids still go to malls.
