WAYS TO STYLE CARGO PANTS

CARGO pants, initially made for the army, have slowly been making their return to fashion, with a greater variety of cuts being made available than ever before.

Even international celebrities like

Alexa Chung, Emily Ratajkowski, Chrissy Teigan, Rihanna and fashion blogger Julie Sariñana (of the blog Sincerely, Jules) have embraced their resurgence. Here’s inspiration for just some of the ways you can style cargo pants.

A PROFESSIONAL LOOK

Create a professional look with your cargo pants by pairing them with a shirt, a fitted blazer, a pair of heels and minimal jewellery.

POP SOME COLOUR

Since cargo pants mostly come in neutral, earthy colours, add some colour to your look by wearing a bright-and-bold shoe with a white, or matching bold sweater.

LAYERS

Another great casual look is to add layers to your cargo pants look. Pair your cargo pants with a warm-toned, neutral sweater or cardigan over a plaid button-up shirt. Complete the look with brown or black ankle boots.

MONOCHROMATIC

Go for the monochromatic look by adding a neutral beige scarf along with a jersey that matches the colour of your cargo pants.

GET FANCY

Dress up your cargo pants by adding heels or wedges, a fitted formal jacket (perhaps a leather jacket or a waterfall jacket) and accessories.
