WEDNESDAY- Cargo Skinnies!
Cargo skinny pants were huge about a year or two ago, and many people wrote them off as just a fad. But one still sees a fair few of them around, so while they might seem tricky to wear, they can still be an awesome alternative to jeans! Here are a couple examples of how to wear them in a sophisticated and slightly dressy way.
Outfit #1: Classy!
This is one example of how to make your cargo skinnies look very polished and even work-appropriate. Start by pegging the ankle of your pants to showcase a nice pair of neutral colored pumps or booties. Then slip on a glittery shirt or tank top, ensuring that the neckline is somewhat modest if you do rock this look at a job or field experience. A clean white biker jacket or cropped blazer adds polish while a red necklace and bag finish it off with a pop of color!

Outfit #2: Fun!
If the first look is a little too proper for you, here is a more casual and fun interpretation. Instead of glitter, try an easy, flowy button-up in leopard or another eye-catching pattern. Since leopard is considered a neutral, bright coral shoes add a much needed dose of color. An edgy bag of any sort works to tie in with the rugged factor of the pants, while girly earrings finish it off with a feminine touch.
