Fashion Valley: One-Stop-Shop for Holiday Help

Getting ready to do some holiday shopping, but not sure where to start? Fashion Valley, San Diego’s premier retail destination, is offering some special amenities this season to make holiday shopping more easy, convenient and fun.

“Fashion Valley is here to help spread love this holiday season,” said Chris Lane, director of marketing and business development at Fashion Valley. “With amenities like our new holiday social media concierge and popular personal shopping program, Fashion Valley is the perfect one-stop-shop to tackle holiday shopping in a festive environment.”

New this holiday season, Fashion Valley is launching a social media holiday concierge, to help shoppers – both at and away from the mall – with holiday-related questions, including everything from the closest parking to access their favorite stores, to popular gift ideas to wow Aunt Sally. Fashion Valley’s digital elves will be on the lookout for holiday related questions on Twitter and will respond with helpful holiday hints. Guests can Tweet to Fashion Valley using hashtag #FashionValleyConcierge starting today through December 31 for advice on seasonal activities, gift ideas, and more.

In addition to the social media holiday concierge, shoppers can get expert fashion and gift-giving advice from Fashion Valley’s dream team of personal shoppers.

As a solution to the stress that can sometimes come with holiday shopping, Fashion Valley’s personal shopper can either function like a concierge service and do the shopping for you, or to escort you on a custom shopping tour of the center, to help with your tough-to-tackle gift list or holiday fashion dilemmas.

The best part? The first two hours are completely complimentary. Shoppers looking to enjoy the service are encouraged to contact Chris Lane at chlane@simon.com.

Shopping bags, luggage for out-of-town guests and coats shouldn’t slow you down while enjoying a trip to Fashion Valley this season either. Fashion Valley is also offering a free coat and package check during regular mall hours at Simon Guest Services, which is located on the lower level along the corridor between Prada and Banana Republic.

Shoppers can also get help with gift-wrapping this season. Holiday gift-wrapping benefiting a local charity will be held in Center Court, near Santa’s House, from November 28 to December 24.

Local entertainers, carolers and performers will also be on hand throughout the holiday season to spread good cheer.
