can I wear blue khaki pants if dress code is business casual?

[weflyhigh]

i have a pair of blue chino pants and they fit a lot better than my tan khaki pants, so I would rather wear them, but was wondering if that is acceptable?

this is the closest I could find, but they aren't quite this blue:

I have better pants at home, but that is 4 hours away. I could go to macys and buy a new pair or borrow a pair, was just wondering

I would. Pressed. Collared shirt(golf type).

Wearing blue would be a sign of support for Avatar, don't go against your beliefs

You should find out from your manager. Or look at what everyone else is wearing.

Um, khaki is a color and blue is also a color. They are not the same color though so saying blue khaki pants doesn't make any sense.

LOL, came to post this.

Can't be blue and khaki at the same time, as they are colors.

I guess they could be both, if they are plaid pants

Khaki is both a color and material

Chino is a material

Reverse own fail

Don't wear either pair of pants. Just shave your legs and make sure your shirt covers your underwear. Boom! super-tight khakis, just like the cool kids wear.

blue khaki sounds like bukkake (sp?)

Jeans and a dress shirt.

Jeans and a black turtleneck.

Casual slacks should be perfectly fine. Most offices that don't cater to clients are pretty casual these days in that regard. Pair it with a nice shirt/golf shirt and you'll be fine. As the others said, just see what everyone else wears. Go more upscale at first then you can relax it over time.
