These are so cool! I love them and look forward to wearing them soon. My daughter says they are far too casual (crazy looking) for the office, so these will used primarily as weekend pants or events where I hope to embarrass my children. They could be a bit smaller in the waist and length. There is a cord that can tighten waist but it kinda causes the back to bunch up and give an unflattering balloon look. Make these in petite sizes and in different colors and I'll purchase every color! I love the fabric, too. It is neither too thick nor thin.
