Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I am having a strange problem with this particular skirt. I ordered the first one in a large, going by my measurements. It is beautiful, lovely pastel colors with an overall impression of pink and violet and white. It is a little big on me though, and I have a problem with it that another reviewer mentioned - the skirt material poofs out from the waistband, and doesn't look smooth and attractive. The waistband itself is a little loose so I decided to order it again in a size smaller, a medium. It arrived today, and I had to go back to check my order, I was so surprised at its appearance, it's like a different skirt. the skirt in a size medium has the same pattern, but it's in a much darker dye. It is very heavy on the oranges and corals, looking more like autumn colors than spring. The ribbon is light pink in the large and dark pink in the medium. I much prefer the color pattern in the large, but it's too loose. I think what I am going to need to do is to send them both back. I am enclosing the photo so you can see the difference in the colors. It's too bad. It's a beautiful skirt.
