What should I do?

The color isn't what's bothering me...it's the fit. They seem slightly large in the buttocks region. Do they fit okay in the waist or is it possible to go down a size? Also...do you wear heels or flats at work? Can we get a pic with the shoes you would normally wear? I think they might look much better with heels....they would flow/drape better.

I'd return and get the navy in a size smaller. They're such a cute style!

I think that the color is too bright for pants. I think that type of color would work better on a skirt, shirt or sweater. Once you wear the pants, you won't want to wear them for quite a while because they're so recognizable. I would get the navy only if you really love the style. Navy is a classic color and you could make more outfits with it for the spring, summer and fall. I personally would return because for $80 I could go to the Gap or Banana outlet and get two to three pairs of nice pants, but I'm just really frugal...

I am sending them back. I checked on altering them and it will just be too much of a pain to do. Since it looks like nautical is in for spring, there will probably be other cheaper versions. I just thought that lace up back was so cute though.
