And a leather jacket. :-)17 beats.https://www.blogger.com/profile/13010462456433196213noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7663111526320364332.post-24506157150373689262011-06-26T00:41:29.993-04:002011-06-26T00:41:29.993-04:00The styling does leave something to be desired.

I will definitely check these out in the store to get a better picture, I hope the price point isn't higher than the typical Banana items- and I know better than to hope to find them on sale.percentbloghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03596153861213431752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7663111526320364332.post-37434882180511386312011-06-24T07:20:27.455-04:002011-06-24T07:20:27.455-04:00i am in love! can't wait until august...
