Daily Obsesh – Cargo Pant by Urban Behavior

imageRemember when cargo pants were in a few years ago? They were baggy and had drawstrings on the waist and at the bottom of the leg openings? It was a pretty tragic look (and we’re totally guilty of wearing the style ourselves). Well, guess what? Cargos are back in full effect. But they have a much more feminine, sophisticated quality to them -they’re skinny!


And right now, one of our favorite pairs are these army green ones by Urban Behavior. They’re soft and comfy so you can wear them with some Cons and a baggy shirt to kick it on the weekend or you can dress them up by throwing on some fancy schmancy heels. Either way, it’s a winning look … at least until the next decade when some Stylehive blogger claims the look was tragic.
