In recent years, the fashion world has become quite nostalgic, especially for anything from the ‘90s and 2000s. We’ve seen the return of low-rise jeans, biker shorts, slip dresses, and now, the most recent revival – cargo pants! Stylist, Erica Wark highlights various cargo pant styles and how to rock them this spring. Watch the video to get her styling tips and shop the looks below.

Tapered Cargo Pants

Neutral cargo pants are a great place to start if you’re a little unsure of this trend. To make the look extra chic, stick the neutrals in the rest of the outfit and finish off the look with luxe suede accessories.

Jogger Cargo Pants

When it comes to wide cargo, it’s important to look for a tailored option to create sophistication in your look, while staying on the comfortable side.
