These capri's are not black and not navy, they're in between the two. Not a deep black and not true navy. Also, the palm trees are an off white, not a true white, a beige I guess. Not exactly what I wanted, but they will be ok even though the blouse I bought to go with them, a navy, didn't match. The color is why I took off a star. I like them and will get some wear out of them this summer. Just be careful how you wash any of these capri's because it won't take much to screw them up. Cold water with same type of material otherwise they will pill and fade.
