It's a new year and you're probably making plans to make 2012 great.

One way to do that is to look your best. This morning on "Good Morning America," Lori Bergamotto of  Lucky magazine visited to give you the inside scoop about the must-have fashions that everyone will be wearing this year.

We showed you three pairs of models wearing similar looks - one the splurge, and the other, the budget-friendly save. So you'll be able to look as good as the model wearing the expensive look, but at a fraction of the cost.

 The Trend:  Vibrant Colored Pants

Bergamotto advised pairing  the pants with a white button-down shirt, classic jewelry and a handbag.
