Many pieces from the early 2000s are coming back into style, including cargo pants, with a utilitarian aesthetic and relaxed look that has meant they have become a wardrobe staple in recent months. You are bound to have seen plenty of your favorite influencers and celebrities wearing cargo pants, including Emily Ratajkowski, Hailey Bieber, Sofia Richie, and Dua Lipa.

The wide range of outfits includes looks for both colder weather and the summer months, as well as casual weekend looks and smarter outfits that you could even wear for work – so let’s get started!

How To Style Cargo Pants

1. Contrasting Pink + Green

Since pink and green are opposite shades on the color wheel, when they are paired together they create a striking, contrasting look! The pink oversized button-up shirt and pink flip-flops really pop when combined with the green cargo pants, while the zebra print bralette adds an unexpected, eye-catching touch.
