OOTD- Urkel Pants or Ankle Chic?

One thing I enjoy about the changing of the seasons is the change of colors. Lilac and sunshine yellow gives way to royal purple and mustard yellow. I'm a lover of color in my life and wardrobe, so I'm pretty willing to try on something other than standard black or purple if we are judging by what's in abundance in my closet. But, I'll probably be staying away from olive green. Not sexy going around looking sickly.

I spied these cords on J. Crew's sale section some time ago and I was intrigued by the color. A mix of brown and yellow seemed like the perfect shade to represent fall. When a coupon code popped up I took the plunge to order them. This was a major leap of faith with the color, size and fit. There was no turning back, these babies were going to be mine since they were final sale. I love the color, but I face a dilemma. Do my pants look like high-waters or do they look like the ankle pants they are supposed to be? Can I resurrect the Urkel look? Oh wait, that was never in style...

    @ agnes & DIY Diva- Thanks for the comments and glad to know I didn't venture off to Urkel territory. :)

    @Ife- Thanks! I thought a little leopard would work with the outfit. I'm going to try my best to get some pictures of those shoes today or tomorrow so you can see.

    @Becca- Yes, I love the J Crew outlet. I went there yesterday, but luckily only walked out with a belt (again, lol). I was tempted to get much more though.
