3 Ways To Style Cargo Trousers

LOOK 1: Date Night

Polished, feminine and fresh, this look is great for dinner or date night. The wide-legged Isabel Marant cargoes are long and high waisted – perfect for elongating the leg, cinching in the waist and tucking a ruffled blouse into. Go for dainty accents such as these link earrings and strappy sandals, and add interest with a chunkier clutch bag.

LOOK 2: Elevated Everyday

These more relaxed straight-fit khaki cargoes deliver a cool-girl officewear look. Add femininity and structure with a cropped cream cardigan (buttoned up) and black pointed sock boots, peeking out subtly from beneath to add some edge. A gold necklace breaks things up and adds a glitzy focal point among the neutrals. 

LOOK 3: Weekend Casual

This off-duty look takes the tried-and-tested blazer-trainer-sweatshirt combo and switches out the usual relaxed denim jean for a darker-toned khaki cargo. The grey sweatshirt lightens things up, while a sleek white trainer is functional yet effortless. Gold hoops lend some extra interest.
