So, I was thrilled when Lee sent me a pair of their Colorwashed Khakis (also available in capris) in Riviera Blue. Paired with a white or beige top, you have a lovely, fresh, almost nautical look. The pants come in a range of sun-lit hues. Bring luck with jewel tone jade, popular this spring, or make a bold statement with vivid strawberry…
