Cargo Pants Are Cool Again

In case you haven’t heard, cargo pants are cool again.

While trying new trends can be intimidating, this is one comeback kid worth adding to your closet – smartly, of course.

These 90s icons have made a mighty comeback, shedding their dad-core reputation for good.

Whether you’re a long-time cargo convert or a skeptic joining the bandwagon, there’s no denying their versatility. From laid-back casual to unexpectedly chic, I’ve got three outfit formulas that’ll have you rocking cargos in style while getting plenty of wear out of this trendy pant.

Trying out trends with intention is key, so let me show you how to style cargo pants in a way that feels fresh but still distinctly you!

 

Outfit Inspo: Sporty Chic

Starting with a classic combo, we’ve got beige cargo pants (mine are from maurices!) paired with a pink striped tee and a cozy pink zip-up hoodie. To complete the look, I added some slip-on white sneakers.

This outfit has a laid-back, sporty feel that’s perfect for running errands, grabbing coffee with friends, or just lounging around in style.

Outfit Inspo: Pretty and Practical

For our next cargo pants ensemble, we’re going for a fun juxtaposition of sporty and pretty. Start with those trusty beige cargo pants, then add a flirty white blouse with delicate ruffles. Accessorize with a colorful beaded necklace and slip into some coral ballet flats.

This outfit is perfect for days when you want to look put-together but still feel relaxed. The cargo pants ground the look, while the feminine blouse and ballet flats add a touch of elegance. It’s the best of both worlds – sporty and chic, all in one stylish package.

Outfit Inspo: Cool and Trendy

Finally, let’s take cargo pants to the next level with a super on-trend outfit. Pair the beige bottoms with a white crop top featuring a fun rainbow graphic. Top it off with a sleek blue moto jacket and matching blue platform sneakers.

This look is all about embracing your inner fashion-forward self. The cargo pants provide a cool, utilitarian base, while the crop top, moto jacket, and platform sneakers amp up the trendy factor. It’s a perfect balance of casual and edgy, making it ideal for everything from a concert to a night out with friends.

The key to nailing this outfit is to let the cargo pants be the foundation, then build up the rest of the look with statement pieces that showcase your personal style. The result is a fresh, modern take on the classic cargo pant.

In Clothes-ing

The main idea here is to be a smart shopper when trying new trends.

Think about how you can mix and match new clothes with what you already have. By choosing versatile items, you can create many different outfits without spending too much. Fashion is all about showing who you are, so have fun experimenting!

Also, don’t forget to reuse items from your closet. With a bit of creativity, you can make old clothes look new again by adding accessories or layering.

So the next time you feel stuck with your style, remember these tips— shopping wisely, being creative, and reusing your clothes are the keys to refreshing your wardrobe and creating endless outfit options.
