Above the Fray: Sophomore Slump

We really wanted the Sophomore sale to be great, since it's going up against the monster that is Intermix and we like rooting for the underdog. According to one tipster, though, it's not worth the trip:

I was just at the Sophomore sale going on at Circa Now. Not much there. There’s about a rack of clothing, but it’s almost all either graphic tees, the double zip skirts, or the dress that’s basically two parts because of the huge cutouts on the sides. They said all they had was what was out, so I doubt they’ll be restocking at any point. Meh.

Too bad. We'll just have to go back to plotting off-hours follow-up trips to the Metropolitan Pavilion.
