t’s a destination almost as iconic as the World’s Largest Cowboys Boots that proudly stand in front of it at our North Star Mall.
Saks Fifth Avenue (), home to Prada, Chanel, Louis Vuitton, Jimmy Choo and many more fabulous brands, has welcomed countless fashion lovers and our credit cards, providing a sense of sparkle and flair for everyone who walks through the doors.
For my mom, my sisters and me, a visit to Saks was always been a special treat. The shoes! The jewels! The bags! The cosmetics! The clothes! Our biggest decision: Where should we start looking? And while we purchased only every now and again, just the experience of browsing the racks and display cases transported us to another world.
As you probably know, due to financial troubles (maybe we should have purchased more often), Saks is shutting its doors in May. I’m terribly sad to see it go. My credit card? Not so much.
In honor of our city’s 300th Anniversary, I’m ranking Saks Fifth Avenue No. 127 in my 300 Reasons to Love San Antonio list. Thank you, Saks, for making us all feel special. Our closets will miss you.
