Bar Refaeli's Floral Pants and Leather Jacket Make a Fab Match

Bar Refaeli took a break from all the Olympics festivities to spend a night out in London.

Bar Refaeli took a break from all the Olympics festivities to spend a night out in London. For the occasion, the model wore her go-to brown leather jacket and a pair of floral pants, which totally livened up her look. We especially love the longer hemline on her pants. A black silk camisole, black peep-toe pumps, and a chain-link bag completed her bold nighttime ensemble. Dare to wear equally bright floral trousers like these Marc by Marc Jacobs floral silk pants ($301, originally $430) for your next night out and be sure to temper them with a worn-in leather jacket. If you prefer a bit of crop to your pants, try these Theory floral-print pants ($200).
