We’re not trying to be overly dramatic when we say, if you can’t find it here, it doesn’t exist. However, we doubt you’ll leave the state’s most fashionable mall empty handed.

Best Handbags
Coach
Diamonds may be a girl’s best friend, but we all know a Scottsdale lady’s closet is incomplete without a gorgeous Coach purse or two — or three — or four. And maybe a pair of shoes? And glasses? And we’ll take that scarf, too.
