If you're looking for major retailers, head to Pioneer Courthouse Square and the Pioneer Place. The Pearl District is north of the West End, across Burnside Street, and was once an industrial area of town where you didn’t wander into after dark. Now, it’s one of downtown Portland’s tony shopping districts. There’s lots of small boutique shopping in quite a small area; very easily walkable.
