5 Instagram Outfit Ideas on How to Wear Cargo Pants
If coordinated looks are your passion but you want something different from the usual matching set, here’s the solution: wear a pair of cargo pants with a matching utility jacket and elevate the whole look with sky-high pumps and a metallic oversized clutch.
If it’s true that cargo pants lend themselves mostly to casual pairings, it’s also true that when mixed with the right pieces and accessories they can become essential for creating perfect sporty-chic looks. Like this one, featuring a pastel tweed jacket, camouflage cargo pants, pink sandals, and an animal print bucket bag.
To be a little bolder with colors and achieve a striking look, start with a pair of purple cargo pants. Add a red crewneck sweater to the outfit. Then give it a final twist with matching pumps.
Want to wear cargo pants in an even more refined way? Once again, ton-sur-ton looks can be a winning choice. High-waisted cargo pants paired with a draped top in the same shade have nothing to envy from more traditionally tailored trousers.
To combine practicality and style in one outfit, all you need are green military cargo pants. Worn with an over sized light blue shirt and a pair of flat shoes, they can become your new favorite everyday go-to.
