This time we are here to talk about utilitarian fashion, to be more specific: utilitarian cargo jackets. This outerwear piece can be considered to be one of the best choices for creating a strong woman’s utilitarian wardrobe.
We see a camouflage print cargo jacket styled with a black sweater, black skinny jeans, and black suede OTK boots, a nice combo for ladies who want to keep things casual, but still, want to stand out from the crowd.
It’s a complementary design that creates a sophisticated and masculine touch to the overall look. This trend is clearly not going anywhere: cargo pants, military items, utilitarian jumpsuits, etc.
