How would you style these neon pink pants?

Kristin SF

I bought these pink pants from the GAP, thinking they would be a more muted color. Hello, they are bright neon pink, to my eye!

That's OK, I have a 5 year old daughter so I'm keeping them, she will love them.

But, how in the heck would you style these? What colors and items would go with something this bright?

For background, I'm a MOTG who works FT. I could certainly wear these to the office but it would be more for the enjoyment of my daughter, who loves all things purple and pink. (But no, I do not plan to wear purple with these pants, lol.)

Thanks for your thoughts!

I think I'd wear them with charcoal grey. Or my green/white car coat sweater.

Those are fantastic pants! I love camel with pink. Also the suggestions of burgundy and grey above are great. I would pair them with something more masculine, a blazer, a sweater, but you could take it in a more feminine direction too.

I have a five year old daughter too, lover of all things pink, purple and sparkly. Sometimes I wonder where she came from, especially after having two boys.

Try navy, black, brown, as well as all the suggestions above. Or red. A denim shirt. Chambray.

Atlantic Pacific has some great styling ideas for pink.

Thanks everyone, wow, I would never have thought of any of these combos aside from white. I was worried these pants might be potential orphans, but now I'm excited to take them for a spin. Thanks again!

I love black and white with hot pink, maybe in a houndstooth since that is lovely and in stores right now. I also love nature's inspirations, so don't forget vibrant green, as in a beautiful hummingbird or a tropical bloom! Thanks for sharing your fun purchase.
