PV Mall is one of the nicest in the area, even though the do not have as many of the high-end shops as Fashion Square does in Old Town. No matter, this is one of the original Malls in Scottsdale and you can sometimes see the history and I mean this in a good way.
They have a very nice Dillards, Macy's and Sears as the main anchors along with many of the other stores you would find in any Mall in the US. What's really nice is that they also have a Costco which seems larger then most I've been in.
Why drive and waste all that gas going to Desert Ridge or Fashion Square, when Paradise Valley Mall is nearby?
