will people laugh at you?

I'm asking this because the suit i bought has designs on it (small details) and they did not have another pair of dress pants of that same design for sale. And ppl usually buy 2 pairs of pants with each suit.

So my question is, is it ok to wear the top (blazer) along with a different pair of dress pants (same color but different texture & design)?

If i do this, will it look like I am wearing a cheap suit?
Umm.. this heavily depends on what department you work for and what the expectations are. If you are actually expected to wear a suit for work then I'm assuming a conservative formal accountant/commerce/management position so... don't do anything funky. Matching jacket and pants, tailored to fit, solid charcoal, grey or navy would be the safest way to play it...
