May we present the ultimate cargo style guide
Cargo is one of the most versatile fashion staples ever. We can't seem to shake off this Y2K trend—and we most definitely don't want it to disappear, either. From mini skirts to shorts, there are endless options for every aesthetic. Sit back and relax, because we've created the *ultimate* cago style guide to fulfill all your fashionista dreams.
Pants
Cargo pants add an instant flare of coolness to any outfit (plus, they give *major* Kim Possible vibes). Just like Kimmy P, we're balancing out the signature baginess of the pants with a cute cropped top.
Pro tip: Experiment with color by pairing colorful bottoms with a neutral top. See below for inspo to assist your wishlist.
Camo cargo pants: SHEIN, $24
Tan cargo pants: Garage, $50
Pink cargo pants: Forever 21, $24
Skirts
What's better than a regular mini skirt? A cargo mini skirt! Nothing says Y2K like a cargo mini, especially when it's paired with chunky shoes and a leather jacket. Add dimension by starting with a lightweight tank top, then adding another layer like a cropped knit. Lastly, use an outer layer—like a jacket or coat—for the final touch. Don't forget to accessorize!
Pro tip: Style it with platform shoes to give yourself extra height.
Tan cargo mini skirt: Hollister, $26
Gray cargo mini skirt: Emmiol, $29
Tan cargo maxi skirt: Emmiol, $32
Shorts
Cargo shorts are perfect for warm days, plus they're comfortable to wear at any outing. For a laidback look, pair with a graphic tee and sneakers. Simple, yet cute and effortless!
Printed cargo shorts: H&M, $24
Black cargo shorts: Tillys, $36
Green cargo shorts: Pacsun, $44
