Upgrade your pants
It's time to welcome relaxed styles full of personality and smart comfort. Formerly a utility-only piece, cargo pants have evolved and become the synonym of street style cool — pair them with a textured bomber jacket and your favorite kicks. Straight-leg pants contribute to a sleek look and, especially if patterned (think plaid, gingham, or houndstooth check), can upgrade the basic tee that you already have in your closet. A pair of slim and lightweight chinos is an essential part of business casual attire but can also replace pants for any other occasion — choose darker colors like black and navy for more formal events and keep the khakis for work or weekend getaways.
