When I found out there was an outlet in Sydney, I knew I had to go. Located in Rosebery, the area is what I would describe as industrial chic. Parking in the area seemed limited so I would recommend Uber or public transportation. The bottom floor is swim & resort while the 2nd level is ready to wear. I was impressed by the selection. They had a ton of different past styles. Mostly solid pieces and not a ton of print left but nevertheless an impressive selection. My only gripe was they had a lot of size 3. I needed a smaller size and although it's discounted, the price is still a decent amount to buy clothes that are too big just because you love it. If you're visiting and are a fan of the line, I would definitely recommend you check it out!

This shopping centre still looks waaaay too new and shiny to really fit in with the Newtown scene…read more Especially considering it's located right next to the Townie. The comparison is....conspicuous. On the other hand this little shopping centre has been a very handy addition to the Inner West. For starters its ushered in Fitness First. Now, love it or loathe it, you've got to admit it's pretty damned convenient being able to hit the gym right as you jump off the train on your way home from work. Newtown Central also houses a Foodworks, a Cellarbrations bottleo (more convenience(, a Vietnamese bakery, a nail salon and Sole Espresso (good coffee!). It will still take a while to properly settle into the suburb - but the location speaks for itself.

A credit card that doesn't look worn out enough?…read moreThen get thee down to Westfield Sydney, a couple of swipes of that card and flash a couple hundo's around; and you'll be as good as new! And chances are, you'll have some fancy new threads to show off. There's always so much happening at Westfield Sydney. Buskers in the mall, a sale at Zara, a new line of watches at Tag Heuer, or a new pair of Connies has come out at Hype. Either way, you'll never be short of something to buy, or something to look at. It doesn't matter which end or side of town you work in, you're never far away from Westfield Sydney; even if it's just to join the stampeding herds in the food court under Myer. Being a shopaholic, I could burn up a fortnights pay here in one go; and just keep rambling around until my bank card ran away screaming, or the bank just gave me the big thumbs down. Some may find the way the interior's decorated a tad too shiny, but I think that adds to the opulent atmosphere that you should expect from a shopping centre towards the upper-end of the spectrum. Be warned that you may spend sometime finding what you're after; but once you have, all will be right with the world... that's while your left trying to work out which arm to carry that extra bag on.

On my recent trip out to Sydney, I stopped in here to check out this shopping mall and to eat…read morelunch. It was located near the north end of Hyde Park at the NW intersection of Market St and Castlereagh St. It was easy to spot from far away with the Sydney Tower Eye. The mall was huge where you can easily get lost inside. Thankfully, they had good signage at the escalators. Just from a little bit of window-shopping, there were plenty of high-end stores. You can go up the Sydney Tower Eye from the 5th floor. There were restaurants on several floors. I ate at Yayoi up on the 6th floor.

Definitely hard to get to by public transport, your only options are essentially buses to Bondi Junction or buses to the city.

It is convenient that there is a post office here, as well as a massive Coles supermarket. It is small and is designed as a great get in and get out type of establishment. Sorry, not the type of establishment to make a day out of it clothes shopping. Leichhardt Marketplace is slightly better suited for this purpose, although Broadway would be better for that. A great place to buy those necessities, as well as a great vitamin store and butchery. Also their cafe right near Coles is great for a long lunch and a quality coffee if you need an immediate pit stop, and perhaps you wish to give outside Norton Street and the Italian Forum a bit of a breather. Parking can be a bit of a nightmare here, depending on when you come so it can be a little like a lucky dip; although if you have to you can always park at the nearby Italian Forum. Simple is something that is best for those busy professionals who want to get in and get out as quickly as possible. Not the type of shopping centre for socialising and entertainment.

Many consider it the other way round, and they would be amazed to hear that I felt this way. But I guess I've always just gone to this centre for my shopping needs. Sure it has less in the way of boutique shops and there's only one main supermarket/department store in it compared to Marketplace's three, but who wants to go to a massive shopping centre when all you need are a few things from Coles? Norton Plaza comes equipped with everything you could hope to need from a shopping centre; a chemist, seafood, a butcher, clothes shops, fruit shops, cafes, it even has it's a pub upstairs. It may not be as grandiose as some shopping centres, but sometimes the last thing you want is grandiose and with two hours free parking, a quick trip to Norton Plaza trumps a long shopping day anywhere else.

Need some new undies? While target and K-mart do cheap Bonds gear and other brands of underwear,…read morethis place has a bigger range, and the prices are cheap. Not drastically cheap, but cheaper than Myer. Depending on what you are after, sale stock will be quite reasonably priced. There is also a big range of bra's which is something that definitely don't come cheap anywhere else but here. I was lucky and found the exact type that I wear on sale here. I went back a few months later and they had a whole different range in, I suppose that's the way it goes with factory outlets. There is a full range of women's, men's and kid's underwear and some pyjamas, as well as sports clothes and tracksuits. Brands include Bonds, Berlei, Jockey, Holeproof, Slazenger and Everlast.

Well, this was the case with this shopping centre, especially if you don' happen to own a car. The other thing is that the lifts from the carpark are awfully slow. However, on the bright side, they do have a nice area up on the roof which has been converted into an entertainment district.

Seems silly to be writing this but I really liked the thought that went in to the toilets! The normal female toilets had a double width cubicle for fitting a pram in and also a cubicle with a little children's toilet. It's not often you find that in the regular toilets. Normally a lone mummy with a pram is forced to wait for disabled toilets or parents room toilets which in a busy centre can result in a long wait. Whilst the centre may have been slightly smaller than my local Chatswood Westfield the inclusion of the 3 major department stores along with the atmosphere meant that for me it was a winner! If only it was closer to me!

So if you ever wanted to buy nice cloths at a really good price look no further.

Its the higher end of St vinnies or Salvos & everything sold is brand new of course :).

Worst mall in sydney. Escalator forever broken and only then works for a few months before…read morebreaking again. Constant leaky building when raining. No cinema, no mini hardware store as Bunnings too far without car. Better food needed at mall eg that sushi tastes like cardboard. Ridiculous greek shop with overpriced chess boards of $750 upwards and outdated bric a brac in a blue collar district. We arent Paddington so why put an overpriced useless store for average aussies in a substandard mall that doesnt have the building structure to install another level. Who organizes oversaturation of certain items vs undersupply of needed items. The best store in there is kmart but even they sabotaged themselves when they moved the cashiers spot in the middle of the store instead of the exit where it used to be. I'm not asking it to be as creative as bankstown rsl with its decked out rainforest but something thats reasonable.
