Robinsons Starmills: Shopping and more at lower prices

Here’s a good reason to skip town. Not a museum, not a monument but a shopping mecca. The brands you praise at the prices you love. And since it’s only about an hour’s drive away from the metro, it sure makes for a good excursion. Want to have a one-of-a-kind shopping experience? Well, you can definitely have it at Robinsons Starmills in San Fernando, Pampanga.

Robinsons Starmills in Pampanga has been welcoming hordes of happy shoppers since its opening in 2002. Its philosophy is simple: to give you everything you need and more under one stellar shopping roof.

Stellar is really how Robinsons Land Corporation can describe this structure of theirs. A masterwork of well-known architect Jun Palafox, Robinsons Starmills is recognized as a Pampanga landmark by everyone who’s seen it. Decked out on the exterior of this gargantuan structure is a festive display of colors, 52 in fact, which vividly complements the big blue glass segment right at the center of it. But what’s really at the center of all its beauty and grandeur is you and your world of shopping.

Robinsons Starmills is really all about pleasing the ultimate shopper in you. Which is why inside this mall, you are sure to find everything you want and more and at value-for-money prices, too. And by value, that means everything sells relatively cheaper than they normally would in the metro. So shopaholics, listen up good! You know you’ve long been waiting for something like this.

How does a combination of top international and local brands sound to you? Does the name Havaianas, Plains & Prints or Mango ring a delirious bell? It’s all right to go crazy. After all, this is the start of an unforgettable shopping spree. The mall stays open from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. So, relax, travel at your most convenient hour and be prepared to shop till you drop!

When you’re out shopping, it’s most important to be comfy. But of course, you’ve got to match comfort with style. How about putting on a pair of flip-flops? Grab a pair (or more) from All Flip-Flops the moment you get to Robinsons Starmills. All Flip-Flops carries a very extensive line of Brazil’s well-known Havaianas flip-flops. And in case you’re wondering what’s new in the world of slipper coolness, you can now own a pair of Havaianas that’s studded with Swarovski crystals. Certainly something to add to your growing Havaianas collection.

For more on making yourself fashionably comfortable, point your feet towards Shoreline, which sells men’s sandals as well as sporty brands such as the adventuresome Sperry Top-Sider marine shoes. And if that’s not sporty or adventuresome enough for you, there’s always the Sports and Fashion Outlet where Nike, Sisley, Benetton, Gas, and more sell at 70 percent off.

If shoes are really your thing, then you’d better make another stop at the RSI Collection store. Located at the Robinsons Starmills ground floor, this is a one-of-a-kind outlet store featuring leading international shoe brands such as Florsheim, Florsheim Ladies, Naturalizer, Dezario, Seychelles, J. Lo, Athena Alexander, Callisto, and Pocket Shoes. Meanwhile, also found here is a full collection of colorful Bossini fashion, including Bossini Men, Bossini Ladies, BSN Sport, Bossini Kids, and Bossini Maternity.

So, now you’ve got your shoes, boots, and flops. You’ve got your sporty gear in check, too. Now it’s time to  scout those racks for some clothes.

Today, nothing says fashion like the Spanish brand Mango. And here at Robinsons Starmills, Mango welcomes you with one huge store that’s got everything, including tank tops, dresses, coats, accessories, and even lingerie. Nearby is another fashion favorite, Rimini Fashion Outlet, which houses your favorite Italian designs from Terranova and Calliope.

And finally, how about something stylishly made here from Plains & Prints? At Plains & Prints, your favorite clothes sell at prices 50 percent lower than they do in the metro. What’s more, its huge store displays all of Plains & Prints’ favorite collections.

And if you’ve got a kid who needs to look good, too, how about letting him/her sport an outfit from Guess Kids? The Guess Kids store in Robinsons Starmills carries a wide range of baby clothes, including jackets, T-shirts, pants, and socks that are perfect for your little ones.

But when you get just a tad tired from all that shopping, you can always take a break and enjoy good Filipino food at Dencio’s Grill. And when you’re feeling all refreshed and ready to go at it again, go ahead and shop some more. At Robinsons Starmills, you can never have enough of shopping!
