A Passel of Printed Pants


One of the spring/summer trends I was most excited for this year was printed pants.  Apparently I was so excited that I ran out and purchased a whole passel of them.  Seriously, the Printed Plains in Nosh Opping is filled with printed pants.  Like this pair here:



I can’t help it; I really do love a printed pant.  I especially love the teal color and the irregular black dots on this pair.   I think the irregularity of the dots lend the pants a sort of leopard look from far away, and that’s always fun.  I paired today's printed pants (LOFT) with a tangerine top (Old Navy), espadrille wedges (Corso Como via Piperlime) and a few bracelets.

This is my fourth, and last, I think, pair of printed pants in The Giants Closet.  The other pairs include a pastel floral pair:

Vintage Ralph Lauren


A palm-printed pair:

Thrifted silk


And a checked pair:

Vintage men's golf pants

I don’t know why I have so many, but seeing them all in one place, I’m glad I found them.  They are all, except for this LOFT pair, thrifted, and this pair was less than $10.00, so it’s a trend that I was able to find for not a lot of money.  However, I still recognize that I have enough pairs of printed pants to last me so while I’m not getting rid of any, I also won’t be buying any more once my expedition is over. 

How about you, Reader Friends?  Are you fans of the printed pants trend?

Happy Wednesday, All!

  1. I like them on you but they wouldn't work on my short stumpy legs, they just make them look bigger

  2. I'm still not sure what to think of printed pants. I like some, but there are some out there that are just *too much* for me. I don't own any (unless you count really subtle pin stripes...but I don't think those count)and I think I'm still not ready to take that step. But you and so many others really rock them, so maybe with time...

  3. I really like print pants, and yet I have none. Odd! My favourite pair are the pastel floral ones.

  4. Printed pants are so fun! I love my polka dot pair and can't get enough of them. Love that peachy shirt paired with blue. So summery!

  5. It took me a while to get into the trend...but I've been loving printed pants lately too. I really like your spotted & palm printed pants.
    Now I just can't wait to see the new crop of printed pants for fall...

  7. wow you're really thrifty then! they all look fabulous on you and I'm super jealous. I think that printed pants look awesome on taller people...I'm 5'3 and chubby and I havent seen any bloggers that look like me blog about them. You look really great though - you look like you've lost a lot of weight since I started following you last year. Good for you:)

  12. All of your printed pants are lovely, but I think my favorite is the teal pair. They really pop with the coral top. :) Hmm, I'd like to try out printed pants someday, but I'm trying to get back on my shopping ban, so that won't be anytime soon. :)

  13. Aw, man, I knew there was a Printed Pants Expert - I should've consulted you before posting my first pair today. s'okay I am totally going to school those delinquent printed pants with a sewing machine :)

  14. I am obsessed with printed pants. And so obsessed that even though I have a bunch, I am not going to stop buying them! I won't do it!! Love these teal pants on you and I am so glad that you are going to keep them.

  17. CUTE outfit!!
    I like geometric printed pants like stripes, plaids or checks--more menswear influenced stuff.
    Although I've been searching for the perfect tropical floral print in some lurid colored print for the summer!

  18. Wow, you look so good in these. So stylish. And they're fun, to boot.

  19. I love the coral top with the blue printed pants. Great color combo. I love a printed skirt or a printed short, but I haven't been bold enough for a printed pant (except pinstripe).

  20. haha well they are all lovely! I feel like I did the same with neon jeans... I have yellow, blue and pink. Now I feel overwhelmed by color (is that possible?). I also purchased polka dot pants and LOVE them. Perhaps I'll be joining you as the crazy printed pants lady :)
