Printed pants have emerged as one of the season’s hottest trends, with bold graphics, florals, stripes and tribal inspired patterns leading the way. It’s a look that will draw attention below the belt, so make sure you find a fit that flatters your body type. And a word to the wise, keep the rest of your look simple! The styles below capture this trend in all its patterned glory, and should be at the top of your eco friendly fashion shopping list for spring.

Tolani Drawstring Printed Silk Pant

How fabulous are these silk pants with their cool, boho pattern?! So easy to wear with the drawstring waist, we predict you will live in these all season. $151 at www.revolveclothing.com.

Lina Rennell Hemp Silk Blend Print Pants

We love these pants, not just for the interesting print, but also for the fact that they were designed with curves in mind. The medium-high waistline is universally flattering and creates the illusion of long, lean legs. What more could you want?! $310 at www.beklina.com.

Say goodbye to those peg leg, skinny pants of seasons past and get ready to embrace the wide world of wide legs.  Designers sent them sashaying down runways and the best fashion bibles have them splashed across their layouts, so it’s only natural that eco friendly fashion follows suit. We think these five styles will widen your view of what’s hot. The best part? A wide leg makes everything else look slim!

Raw Earth Wild Sky Scout Pant

We love the relaxed style of these organic cotton blend pants. The super long raw, edged hem can be cut to your perfect length while the faux pockets create added flare! Try them with a fitted tee for a balanced look. Available in four colors. $118 at www.btcelements.com.

These aren’t your Saturday afternoon jeans. These are the jeans you wear when you want to take a sophisticated approach to denim. Made from organic cotton, they sit low on the waist and feature trouser pocket styling for a flattering fit. $168 at www.loomstate.org.

Okay — we know it’s a bit early, but we wanted to give you a head’s up on a trend that you are going to see everywhere this summer. Ready? Brace yourself! Shorts are back and bigger than ever! By bigger, we don’t mean longer — ohhhh no! This season’s shorts are slouchy, but short. That means that if you’ve been a couch potato all winter, you’d better hit the gym asap, so you can wear something as fab as these silk Julianne shorts from OrangOrang. So sexy and sleek with a great pair of tanned gams. And now, thanks to us, you’ve still got a good three to four months to tone yours. Don’t say we’ve never done anything nice for you! $84 at www.orangorangproject.com. (The link doesn’t take you right to the shorts. You’ll need to scroll about halfway down the page.)
