If the number one reason why you have yet to don (or own) a pair of printed pants has to do with, well, just not knowing what to do with them, you've come to the right place. First, embrace the vibrant patterns, loud colors, and general "busyness" of your trouser print; from there, the look can be as pared down or as bold as your mood dictates. Whether it be a silky colorblocked blouse against a flower-power pant for a flirty finish, or a sporty racer-back tank over colorfully-spotted jeans for an ultra-athletic vibe, we've taken care to style up five different printed pants, five ways.

Inspired Style: Reese Witherspoon Wears Pink and Black Overseas

Reese Witherspoon jetted off to South Korea to promote her latest flick, This Means War.

Reese Witherspoon jetted off to South Korea to promote her latest flick, This Means War. Before you see it, meet the costume designer and see the fabulous wardrobe. For this particular press conference, the actress brightened the room up via a fuchsia and black Michael Kors sheath dress from the designer's Resort 2012 collection. While this dress is not yet available to buy in that color, we can draw inspiration by pairing bright pink with black. The black will tame the pink, while the pink will elevate black to exciting heights. Try a black-and-pink striped top tucked into a black pencil skirt, a pink tank with a pair of badass leather pants, or bright pink jeans with a black sweater. Creating cool combos is fun, so play around with all the black and pink pieces in your closet and see what you come up with!

>> "I thought about the '30s and those glamorous Hollywood couples — the Clark Gables and Carole Lombards," Michael Kors explained of the inspiration for his Fall 2012 collection. To that end, there were shimmering deco dresses, slim cashgora suits, and an eye-popping array of coats piled high with fur. Kors also riffed on the idea of "rugged elegance," and so there were plenty of Winter-ready fabrics in the mix: buffalo checks, mohair, alpaca, and nubby tweeds. It was a luxurious, tactile offering — and quite a visual feast.
