Kim Kardashian headed to lunch in Miami showing off new fashion-forward pants: these Helmut Lang black and white drawstring trousers ($264, originally $378). Up top she wore a black tee and a black shawl-collar blazer, and on bottom her trusty caged Givenchy sandals. Rounding out her black-and-white style were black flat-top Céline sunglasses and diamond stud earrings. Score Kim's exact trousers now to wear with a button-down and pumps at work, then with a tank and leather jacket for a night out.

Among the sea of diaphanous, dreamy frocks, we've pinpointed the most stylish and leggiest silhouettes to emerge from the Spring '12 collections. Of course, not all of us were born with Gisele gams, but these tailored cuts and inseams should flatter just about any form. First up: textural twists on your classic black pant. If you're going to stick to a monochromatic palette, you may as well have a little fun with it. Black's sleek and slimming effect will remain intact as you experiment with different textures. Grab a pair with leather panel detailing, a slick shiny finish, or woven side seams. Click through to see more of Spring's most wearable pant and trouser styles — and find out how they'll work their way into your wardrobe.

From Prabal Gurung's hot-pink flared pants to Yigal Azrouël's cobalt ankle-crop trousers, brights were seen everywhere on the Fall runways. However, we all know models make wearing the trend look a lot easier than it really is, so we asked Fab reader Stefanie to show us how she works her brights for Fall. Needless to say, the cutie, who also has her own cool fashion-meets-DIY blog dubbed The Style Safari, took the challenge with fashion fervor, creating five enviable outfits based on a pair of Zara Yellow Seamed Trousers ($60). After seeing this, we plan on heading to the nearest Zara to grab a pair of bright pants for ourselves. Ready to get inspired? Check out the slideshow to see all of her looks, and why she loves each outfit.
