Hi everyone!

I can't decide whether I should keep or return these linen blend pants from the Gap. I bought them at the beginning of the month and I keep waffling back and forth between practicality and how fun I think these could be. If I keep them, how should I style them? Also, what about fit? This is the smaller of the two sizes.

Practically speaking: they're 55% linen, 45% cotton they're going to wrinkle, I'm ok with that. I do like to iron, but will I iron them? Maybe. The tag says "Do Not Dry Clean" hahaha! YAY! Our springs can be cool, wet, sunny, windy, and/or only last a month before we hit the heat for summer. They could be good for the A/C in the office. We haven't been back at work yet, but it's coming! They may not be worn very much, but on the other hand, they're cooler than jeans. I don't have many lightweight "spring" pants (3 other pairs). Not sure about the pleats?

Heart speaking: They're fun to wear. I've styled them with a linen shirt and sandals as I would wear it this way to work, errands, out, etc. I was trying to brainstorm other ways to wear them: tank top, blazer, bathing suit when I'm on a tropical vacation that is only in my imagination. I will keep them for a long time as I do tend to keep things for a while.
