Cargo pants have become the trendiest piece of clothing to own in the Gen z-millennial fashion verse and honestly, we don't mind them since they look cool, nonchalant, speak fluent Y2K and have pockets! Yes, the pocket part of it actually excites us because women finally have a pair of pants with real pockets which is progress from holding your phone, lip gloss, car keys and snack (basically all your essentials) in the palm of your hand. Also, who wouldn't want to have a pair of relaxed fit trousers that are equal parts comfortable and stylish in their wardrobe?

However, what we've discovered once the excitement waned down was that you have to be extra careful about styling these, since it only takes a wrong top to make your look drab where baggy fits are concerned, so, here are ten cargo outfit ideas for when you want to dress it up in style.

Baggy Tee

The look that never gets old, a simple pair of cargos styled with a baggy tee and a pair of sneakers is the perfect everyday uniform for when you are running errands but still want to look stylish. The key to acing this streetwear meets easy-dressing look is to keep one of the elements simple and the other a bit stylised (like the basketball jersey crop tee we found). Pair these with a pair of basic white sneakers for an easy-peasy casual outfit for the day time.

Oversized Blazer

If your personal style is a mix of streetstyle plus layering, then this look should definitely be on your winter wardrobe radar! Grab your cargo pants and team them up with a fitted pullover or cardigan and layer it up with an oversized blazer. The oversized silhouette of the blazer and bagginess of the cargos would lend the look a relaxed fit, making it the perfect choice for your board meetings when you want to dress slightly casual, but bold.

Denim On Denim

Denim cargos have become all the rage in the past year and rightfully so, since you get to wear the multi pocketed style in your favourite fabric, denim. Since denim on denim is something that has been around for ages and will never go out of fashion any time soon, it only makes sense that you incorporate this style in your cargo pants outfit too.

Puffer Jacket

Winters are all about staying snug as a bug in your overcoats and puffer jackets so for a streetstyle meets winter moment, style your cargo pants with your puffer and call it a day! We would suggest opting for straight-fit cargos instead of the ones that sinch at the cuffs for a more winter-appropriate look. Complete your look with a pair of boots and you should be good to go!

A Cosy Sweater

Who doesn't enjoy cuddling up in a cosy sweater on a winter morning? And to make your sweater-weather fit more trendy, a pair of cargo pants would be just the perfect accompaniment! You can switch things up and go for a pair of metallic cargo pants that scream retro 90's with a grey or black pull over, or a faux fur jacket to fully channel the old-world charm.
