Sydney is one of Australia's top shopping destination, but where in Sydney can you find the best buys? It's a hard call to make, it depends on whether you're looking for bargains, or high fashion, you might have even found somewhere where you can find both. From Sydney's shopping centres, to malls, to specialised boutiques, we know there are some great shopping destinations, you just have to tell us which one is the best.
The
Westfield Sydney Shopping Centre has to be a hot contender. This store caused such a buzz when it first opened in 2010. The centre is filled with gorgeous high fashion from both international and local designers. It can be a little hard to manoeuvre through, and if you've got a low budget this might not be the place to go. It was also the location of Australia's first Zara store, also an event that caused lots of press. We're not quite sure whether this store is best for shopping, or just window shopping.

Another classy place to shop is the
QVB, also in the city centre. This old restored classic has got some very stylish residents. From beauty lovers to fashionistas, this is a great place to store. The old exterior and interior also make this a very pleasant place to shop. A nearby contender is
the Galleries, where you'll find a few trendier shopping options and the fabulous
Kinokuniya Bookstore.
Perhaps you think that you can get the best shopping done at one of Sydney's brilliant markets. We know that there are some great ones around, where you can pick up a whole manner of fashion pieces and accessories. You might even want to let us know

Outside the QVB
A little further out of town, Victoria Avenue in Chatswood is a great place to shop. You'll find
Westfield Chatswood Shopping Centre,
Chatswood Chase, and some other retailers along the road. You can find anything from your big department stores, bargain shopping, stationary stores, and unique boutiques.
There's no denying that Sydney has some brilliant shopping, we just want to know where we'll find it at its best. Whether you've got somewhere in the city centre, or a place that is nestled in suburbia, we want to know all about it.
