PH8

I had heard about PH8 before but since I don’t ever go to this mall I never went. Today was a great day to go! Maybe not so much for the business since they are going out of business… but it was good for my wallet. Everything was an additional 60−70% off already reduced prices. Since it is owned by Bebe, I got this cute skirt, originally $ 69 for $ 6. and that was including tax. They still have some great stuff although they are getting low on merchandise. Check the clothing for any defects cause it’s all final sales!!!

PH8?
Oh, I get it…
It’s like «Fate», but more clever! Like When people say «4ever» or… LOL, er something…
ANYway…
If you need clothes for the gym, yoga, or are one of those girls who wears jogging outfits to go shopping, PH8 is the store for you.
PH8’s got a full range of activewear, and some casual clothes, too — think spandex and terrycloth, with a smidgen of polystyrene and a sprinkling of «does this make my ass look lumpy?»
Despite its newness, this PH8 location is a bit dark and somewhat depressing, like the housewares section of a neglected Macy’s in some small town, where the folk eat mostly McDonalds and grape drink.
(Unsold cappuccino machines and George Foreman grills, EVERYwhere…)
Wait — back to PH8.
No crappy appliances here — instead, some brands of merchandise that you’ll have never heard of, and others, like Bebe Sport, that can be had in a greater selection at the Bebe store across the mall concourse.
PH8 Sherman Oaks is reminiscent of Arden B or of the less exciting, informal low-​rent half of BCBG Max Azria — relatively low prices, rather uninspired clothes.
You’ll likely never say, «Oh my God I’ve got to have that basic tank top or my boobs will never speak to me again!» when shopping at PH8.
Overall, an okay if somewhat middling and boring store, which could be a four star if some of the workers were more helpful. Not all the employees are dismissive, of course, but a few of them SWEAR they’re all that, and won’t stop their personal convos for even a moment to greet you.
It’s a bit of a turnoff, and casts a pall of negativity over the entire store, making customers want to leave. On one occasion I saw two girls shaking their heads in disgust at being offered no help by the saleswomen, and depart without purchase.
A cardinal sin, like granny panties with skinny jeans.
Hopefully, PH8’s not always like this, or their «PH8» will be to go out of business.

See what I did there, folks?
I was being clever…

Oh shut up.
On the real, though — just shop at American Apparel. You’ll have the same ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ chance of being treated rudely by the staff, but there’s a greater selection of activewear running the gamut from saint to skank and back again.
