Local Business Feature: The Mall at Short Hills

Complements of The Mall at Short Hills

When buying a Millburn-Short Hills home, or relocating to the Short Hills, NJ area, it’s important that you get to know the local businesses. As a Millburn-Short Hills real estate agent, I’m a strong supporter of local business! Businesses are what drive our local economy, and owners of local businesses are often local residents. It feels great to support them.

Plus, when you live in Millburn or Short Hills, you want convenience! So today, I’d like to feature The Mall at Short Hills, which is really a collection of a bunch of local businesses and stores! This mall encompasses 150 upscale specialty stores and restaurants. While many of the stores are big-name chains, such as Bloomingdale’s and Saks Fifth Avenue, over 40 locally owned boutiques also reside here.

The entire mall has Wi-Fi, so if you need to get some work done outside of your home or office, you can relax in the Grand Court seating area, complete with a glass flower wall and an entertainment lounge. Or, you could cozy up in a quaint café or a full-service restaurant.

Looking to get social? The Mall at Short Hills has special events and activities happening daily. Here are some of the upcoming events to look forward to:

• Bring the kids to Childsplayspot tomorrow, Aug. 16, for their Glitter Tattoo Body Art event! This takes place from 1 to 3 p.m. Each child can choose a glitter tattoo from the collection, and a staff member will safely apply it.

• Have somewhere to go this weekend? Look fabulous by visiting Saks Fifth Avenue Aug. 17-19 for a relaxing facial, followed by an expert makeup application. This takes place each day from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. by appointment only, so be sure to call!

• Ready to decorate your Millburn-Short Hills home for fall? Pottery Barn will get you prepared on Aug. 18 by sharing with you the new textile and accessories for a rich fall palette. Plus, you’ll learn all the insider tips on how to take your summer décor to autumn décor. This begins at 10 a.m.

• Also on Aug. 18, head to Williams-Sonoma for a complimentary technique class about cooking with wine. A class expert will teach you how to incorporate wine into sweet and savory dishes, which wines to use and how much, and so much more. Call the store to register!

Aside from these events, there are lots of back-to-school specials throughout the mall, along with more facials and makeovers, trunk shows, game demonstrations, reading events and more.

As you can see, The Mall at Short Hills is one great reason to browse the Millburn-Short Hills real estate market! There are lots of local businesses to enjoy in the Millburn and Short Hills areas. Need help? Have questions? Contact me, your New Jersey real estate agent!
