I most certainly did need two pairs of jeans (wine and purple) like my green ones, because they were on sale for $14.99. The purple ones were regular $35, but the wine had gone up to $42 by the time I decided I wanted them. I think the wine are close to the Levis I […]

Anyway, they were 40% off, […]
