Women’s Cargo Shorts in Feminine

Women’s Cargo Shorts in Feminine and Tomboy Style

Clothing style with military touches is still trendy in this year. Not only with Napoleon styled jacket, but also with functional cargo pants. Many people think that cargo pants are match for tomboy girls only, actually the contrast mixing between feminineness and masculinity of tomboy style will be so great. The special character of cargo pants is comfortable and it won’t confine our activities so we can wear it to do anything freely.

Cargo pants, especially women's cargo shorts have many selections of color and model. Nude color, cream, and khaki are very fresh and give us ‘young’ impression. The models that are very medley enable us to choose many options in many different styles. If you want to appear femininely and sexily with women's cargo shorts, you can choose the model of women's cargo shorts that’s skinny. And for you who want to appear edgily, women's cargo shorts that are bit longer is good choice.

The way to mix and match women's cargo shorts is so easy because it can be mixed and matched with any kind of fashion. Sporty style lovers can mix and match women's cargo shorts with boots with tassel detailed. But for you who want to show your body’s indentations, high heels with women's cargo shorts will be very helpful. Wear women's cargo shorts with clogs, wedges, or pumps (with wooden sole for all of those shoes).

Several oh Hollywood actresses such as Jessica Alba and Ciara love to wear women's cargo shorts in several times. The feminine style of Jessica Alba influences her to wear women's cargo shorts with tank top, light brown colored long cardigan, and strapped platform. She is different with the tomboy Ciara who love to wear crop T shirt and boots to perfect her women's cargo shorts. So, which style of women's cargo shorts do you prefer?

Celebs Crazy for Cargos

A company known for its great-fitting jeans has created the latest fad in cargo pants. Thanks in part to the military style trend, fashionistas from Hollywood to NYC  have been sporting the ultra-popular J Brand Houlihan pant which combines the rugged look of cargos with the fit of a skinny jean.

Leighton Meester in AG Cargo Pants

Leighton Meester was caught on the set of Gossip Girl wearing a pair of AG Adriano Goldschmied skinny cargo pants in Fatigue Green with some lace up heels and a loose shirt. I actually really love this outfit! It looks so comfortable but it looks really good at the same time. Leighton has great style on and off set!
With so many cargo pants around at the moment, which are your favourite ones? I’m yet to try these AG skinny cargos but they do look really cute! I always find there are small unique details you need to look for that sets all the cargo pants aside from each other. What do you think of Leighton’s outfit? I have a pair of black wedges very similar to her heels.


 

 

Try Out Skinny Cargo Pants

Celebs in skinny cargos: Vanessa Hudgens, Rachel Bilson, Jessica Alba, Khloe Kardashian, Leighton Meester

Over the last few months, our Fashion Challenge posts have focused on new ways to put together clothes you already own. (After all, the Carrie Bradshaw in me would love to blow my entire monthly income on clothes, but a girl’s gotta eat!) However, sometimes it’s fun to play with a trend or two as well. So this week’s challenge focuses on a hot trend for fall that I believe is totally worth trying: skinny cargos.

If you don’t already own a pair of skinny cargo pants, I highly recommend buying a pair. It’s easy for college girls to get in a rut when it comes to leg wear – most girls I see on campus wear only jeans, leggings, or sweatpants – it’s so boring! A pair of skinny cargoes will add variety to your wardrobe, without breaking your budget; although these were popularized by J Brand, bargain stores like Forever 21 have nicely cut pairs for around $20!

Hesitant about buying a pair of these because you don’t know how to style them? Fear not – skinny cargo pants are a lot easier to style than you’d think! Ready to take on this week’s challenge? Read on for ideas on how to style your fierce new pants.

Tips and Tricks for Pulling off Skinny Cargo Pants

• Pick a color you can wear with things you already own. I recently bought a pair, but opted for a tan instead of army green because I already have several army green jackets. Besides army green and tan, you can also find these pants in navy, brown, and gray.
• Try them with a neutral top. As pictured above, many stars wear these pants with tops in basic colors. Rachel Bilson and Vanessa Hudgens rocked their skinny cargos with loose t-shirts, while Leighton Meester paired her cargo pants with a button-down shirt.
• Wear them with something girly. This masculine trend looks awesome when paired with a floral or lace top. It’s all about the contrast!
• Consider your footwear. Skinny cargos look amazing when paired with sandals, ballet flats, wedges, or heels. If you’re feeling really fierce, try them out with some funky high-heeled ankle boots for a leg-lengthening effect.
• Pair them with a jacket. This trend looks great with a basic blazer or other basic jacket. A sweater would look great too!
• Accessorize. Stack on scarves, necklaces, bangles, rings, sunglasses, or a hat for a fierce look.

Outfit Inspiration – 2 Ways to Wear Skinny Cargos

Outfit #1 – Casual Day Look

Pants, Sweater, Headband, Scarf, Watch, Flats

This outfit is perfectly casual and ideal for class! Start off with a pair of skinny cargos and pair them with a cozy sweater. The one pictured has bat wing-style sleeves, which adds interest to this otherwise-basic outfit. Accessorize with a colorful scarf, headband, and menswear-inspired watch. Finish with some cute suede ballet flats.

Outfit #2 – Fun “Night Out” Look

Pants, Floral Top, Blazer, Heels, Earrings

This outfit is perfect for a date or night out with the girls! Pair a ruffly floral top with your skinny cargos for some chic contrast, and dress up the outfit with a pair of black pumps and a black blazer. The blazer could easily be swapped out for a cardigan if that is more your taste. Finish with some cute jewelry.

Cargo Pants for Women

Women’s cargo pants come back into fashion as trendy women’s costume items regularly for a number of reasons. They’re comfortable, utile — hello, pockets! — and most of all, versatile! Thanks to all of these likeable factors, cargos are once again one of the top women’s pants trends for fall.

Sure, baggy women’s cargo pants are in all probability best saved for weekend errand-running. But dissimilar cuts and styles may be dressed up or down with other trendy women’s clothing, much like other kinds of women’s pants. Here are a good deal of ideas on how to wear women’s cargo pants dissimilar ways.

Casual Look 1 — Cute and Comfortable: If you’re going for a basic casual look, any women’s pant cut style will do for your women’s cargo pants. Pick a nice, soft pair and match it up with other laid-back, but trendy women’s costume items like a loose, striped sweater and ballet flats. Loop a long scarf around your neck various times for a snug feel.

Casual Look 2 — Trendy Tomboy: Here, you’ll need to pick a pair of women’s cargo pants cut more like regular women’s pants, preferably in a slim cut. The idea is to look somewhat tomboyish, but not sloppy.

Top your women’s pants with other trendy women’s costume items meant to emulate menswear, but again, fitted for women. Try a close-fitting plaid shirt, for instance, a beanie cap, and oxford shoes or canvas sneakers. Add a couple of pieces of simple jewelry for a more effeminate touch.

Dressy Look 1 — Pretty Professional: If you work someplace that allows comparatively trendy women’s costume in the dress code, you’re in luck. Women’s cargo pants work here, although, once again, you need a pair cut like regular women’s pants.

Now dress them up like you would other women’s pants, with trendy women’s costume items like high heels and a gorgeous blouse or crisp button-down shirt. Keep everything form-fitting by adding a slim cardigan rather of a boxy jacket.

Dressy Look 2 — Sequined Siren: A clubber look with women’s cargo pants requires, again, cargo cut more like regular women’s pants. A fitted regular-length version will work, as will capri-length cargo pants.

Pair these up with more trendy women’s costume that you’d commonly wear with a skirt or cute women’s pants, like a sequined tank top. Pair everything with high-heels, a little purse like a clutch, and dangle earrings. It’s the accessories here which will actually take the look from comfy to cool.

If you’re going to take on the women’s cargo pants trend, you may want to dip your toes into the water with an low-priced pair of women’s pants. Luckily, there are a lot of online resources that offer trendy women’s costume in a wide range of sizes, at good prices.

Trendy Camo Cargo Pants for Girls

Camouflage clothing is definitely not just for hunters or army personnel. This pattern also represents a fashion statement in everything from tank tops to pajama pants. Whether you’re wearing camo around the house or at the beach, in today’s fashion scene, it’s a must for every casual teen wardrobe.

As with most patterns, you don’t want to overdo it. The best way to wear camouflage clothing is to focus on one piece at a time. Pair a camo shirt with black pants or camouflage pants with a grey sweatshirt. Even though it’s available in such diverse designs, camo is still best saved for only casual occasions.

While camouflage clothing for teens used to be confined to a grunge type of style, it’s now moved past that to be acceptable in every teen’s wardrobe. No matter if they’re dressing in an emo style and pairing it with a hoodie or wearing the latest trends and pairing it with a cute pair of jeggings, camo can add a little casual fun to any teen’s look. Just about every article of clothing and many accessories are available in a camouflage print, including these popular items:

• Pants – These can be the basic cargo pants that are taken straight from a military uniform and in either green or brown, or they can be a colorful camouflage print on a pair of jeans, capris, skinny jeans, or even jeggings.
• T-shirts – While a camo tee immediately makes you think of pairing it up with a pair or cargos, it can go with any number of different styles of pants and even a few casual skirts. Teens typically wear tees in baggier styles or very tight cuts.
• Tank Tops – You can wear camo-patterned tanks in a variety of different ways. They’re layered, worn alone, or even worn as sleep shirts. No matter how you wear it, a camo tank would be acceptable.
• Jackets – Like with camouflage pants, you’ll find jackets in any number of styles and color choices. They can be in a heavyweight material and in green or brown like the traditional flak jackets, or you can change things up with a hoodie in a vibrantly-colored camouflage print.
• Flip-Flops – These sandals aren’t reserved for beachwear anymore. Teens wear flip-flops year-round, and this type of footwear is a great way to show off a camouflage style. You can find camo flip-flops in just about any color. They can be completely decorated or very basic, and you can wear them with any outfit, not just camouflage clothing.
• Purses – The perfect way to accentuate any outfit is with a purse. No matter what style of casual outfit you choose, you can pair it with a camo purse to give it a cool edge.
