Thanks, everyone!
YES! Not acceptable, and a quality control issue that snuck through.
Carla, it's Summer here, and rest assured I'm wearing Summer clothes
Eliza, Aquatalia on sale is where it's at!
LJP and Vildy, these are my Elie Tahari trouser jeans from last year. They are STUNNING quality, a great fit, and a timeless look, to my eye. Pricey, but worth it. Love how dressy they are. The even wash is gorgeous! Completely different on me and the model.
Suz, YES! I was able to order another pair! Thanks for the kind words. It IS a good hair match! And I can so see you in your version of this outfit. A classic goodie
