Bloomie's Opening Outlet in Orange County

Six years ago, Bloomingdale's started to slowly open up outlet stores across the country. But somehow, they skipped Southern California and have only one in Northern California.

That will change when a new Bloomingdale's Outlet debuts next November at The Outlets in Orange in Orange, Calif. The 24,000-square-foot emporium will be fairly close to Disneyland in nearby Anaheim, which is perfect for those vacationing tourists that want to go shopping.

This will be the 17th outlet for Bloomingdale's, which has other discount outposts in Florida, Illinois, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, New York, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Texas and Virginia.

The store will have a wide selection of clothing for men, women and children as well as shoes, jewelry, handbags, accessories and intimate apparel.
