Get Your Printed Pants On

March 11, 2013

Printed pants are where it’s at for Spring. From deep hues like seen in today’s outfit post to delicate florals and polka dots (see TAGG’s diy to get the look!), it’s this season’s take on the colored pant. You’ll see plenty of that still, however we’ve heard from trending experts that the move it toward print. For me, I’m a little pear shaped so when trying this heel, I went with a higher heel to lengthen my leg and went with a delicate peplum (nothing tucked in) to ensure my hips weren’t too prominent. Excited about this H&M find… trying the style for $12.95! (can’t wait for H&M to finally launch an e-commerce site this summer, ps).

how to style printed pants

blouse: zara (dec. 2012, similar) || blazer: express (feb. 2012; similar for less) || pants: h&m (in store) || bag: c/o cuore & pelle via style mined || watch: c/o skagen || bracelet: vintage purchased at miami beach lincoln road sunday market || heels: c/o target

    Good for you for braving printed pants! The closest I have come is polka dots and that was a stretch. With the fitted top and sky high heels, this works beautifully xo

    That big is killer! And it comes in two-tone black and white. All leather. Be still my heart!!!!!!!!!!! What’s the texture? Buttery soft? Stiff? Lined? Can wear with shoulder strap right? Sorry for so many questions!

    I can’t decide what I love most - your printed trousers, the peplum top, the bag… just everything!
    Oh, I think I almost forgot your heels ;-)

    Yes, prints have been dominating since fall 2011. This spring a monochromatic jacket and pant print look is the “Big” thing. Shoes with a chunky heel and of course the pointed to vamp. Peplum continues from Spring 2012. You gotta love peplum it is extremely figure flattering.

    Your pants are so fun, these look perfect on you! I’m hoping H&M actually decided to get their website up and running, I feel like they have been promising it for years!

    I am also loving printed pants for spring - I wore my Old Navy pair today! Totally agree with you about needing a higher heel or pointed-toe pump for us pear-shaped gals. This whole look is great because it’s polished for work, but looks chic & modern at the same time…might be a new favorite of mine! :)

    I’ve wholeheartedly embraced the bright pant trend, and just took the plunge on a pair of printed pants (Old Navy - nothing like dipping a toe in trends with an inexpensive option). Love how you pulled this look together!

    Love this outfit!! So polished and on trend. I don’t wear pants much (outside of a couple of pairs of jeans) but I am really feeling inspired to try printed pants! We’ll see :-).

    I love how you kept the rest of the look simple and let the pants be the star! I’ve really been itching to try this trend and will probably pick up a fun pair of florals for spring.
