Just as we predicted, bright bottoms are going to be all the rage in Hollywood this Spring. I know you were all a little skeptical, I must admit I was too, but Rachel Bilson is proving that this 80s look is pretty damn cute after all. I might be a little bias as purple is my favorite color, but I think she is rocking it!

I love purple also, but for those of us with bigger thighs than Rachel's, I don't know how wearable brights are going to be....
1Rachie looks v. cute, but also v. short.
2The flat boots dont help.
Loving the colors tho.
i seriously thought she was wearing purple SWEATPANTS with moccasin boots. i see now they are jeans. i was like oh goodness, sweat pants.
3love this oufit and she is totally wearing it adorably.
4Sorry guys but I think she looks like about the size of a bus in those unflattering pants -- it's an awful look and I would not recommend pale purple hotpants and Poccoahontas boots to anyone. Brutal. It's almost as bad as the ankle boot photo from a few postings ago (could they make your legs look any shorter/stumpier?). Are you guys gunning for a spot on gofugyourself of what???
5i sometimes LOVE how she dresses but there are some other times when i really don't like it, i mean...she looks like she just got up, and took three pieces without looking. Because i do love the skinny pants and boots...but all together? mmm,...i don't know
6vale since 1988
I'm with you audreystar. I totally thought they were sweats, and unattractive ones at that. And the boots just look dumb with this look. I would rather she was wearing the worn out Uggs.
7Ah yeah I hate those pants and the shoes don't go with it.
8Dammit, I have such skinny thighs, skinny jeans look baggy on me. Do those come in small sizes?
I'm trying to heat more junk food but my doctor said it's natural, I hate my skinniness. And be lucky you have curves! I'm a f*cking stick.
9Still rockin those fug boots...
10although i'm not a fan of purple pants, i find it hard to EVER criticize something rache is wearing!
11It's a cute look, but i don't think that normal people can pull this look off.
12It's a really nice look, but I don't like the pant + boots... I think the pant looks better with flats.
13I've the Bauer-Griffin boots!!!!I really like them!!!!
14She looks like she needs to be on "What not to wear". So not cute.
15Love: 1 Corinthians 13
I dont care for it...
16I'm short and I tried something similar to this outfit and I looked horrible! I'm practically the same size as her but I didn't understand how it looked great on her and not on me. I totally didn't pull it off.
17i love her!!
18I dunno about the boots, but those pants lok amazing on her!
"Party like a rock star, pound like a porn star, play like an all star!"
19I have Tsubi skinny zip jeans in this color and I love them! These jeans however do absolutely nothing for Rachel's shape, the fit is so unflattering. It looks like she bought them a size too big.
20i loved the blue pants on ashlee... and usually i love ANYTHING rachel wears but.. im just not feeling the purple pants.
21Love the boots and the sweater! Not many people can pull off this look, but if anyone can, Rachel can! She's amazing! I love her style...shes so beautiful!
22Love this outfit! Although Im not sure about them bright boots!
23the latest issue of harper's said those were ksubi jeans.
24Atrocious.
