These Cargo Pants Look Great on Every Woman Who Wears Them

I officially fell in love with cargo pants when Emily Ratajkowski wore them on the street with a crop top, Prada bag, chunky sneakers, and teddy coat. They actually looked kind of sexy. Ever since that day, it was a done deal. I gave up skinny jeans and married my Dickies Girl Carpenter pants, which I tried because of the affordable price point (they're just $50!) and because Emily was also wearing Dickies, a brand that reminds me of my youth (hell yes, I wore those overalls in preschool. You know the ones).

After feeling confident channeling Spice Girls vibes in my Dickies, and also welcoming a compliment from my boyfriend - "I feel like you think you're Emily Ratajkowski" (was that a compliment? It was if I wanted it to be) - I made the executive decision that I should collect all the colorways. But then I thought, "Wait. I love how these pants are slightly baggy, comfy, and flattering all at once, but I wonder if other women will feel the same way."

I have a petite frame, and I personally love to wear platform sneakers or boots, but how would my friends style them, and most important, how would they feel in them? Would they also turn around to admire their shape in front of the mirror like I did in these pants, approving of the way the structured slacks trace and define the figure, but don't grip tightly at every curve?

I enlisted associate trending and viral features editor Kelsey Garcia and senior social media editor Fabiola Lara, to try Dickies with me. All three of us have different body types, and we took different sizes and colors in the Dickies to find the most satisfying fit. It's probably pretty obvious that we felt like total babes in them, because our body language says it all.

I figured since cargos are having a moment in fashion, it would be downright rude for me to keep this secret from you: I found a universally flattering take on this very popular trend, and I want you to try it too, in the name of girl power. Ahead, check out the Dickies we tried, then shop the exact pairs, along with similar cargo pants if you prefer slightly different details.

I Tried the Viral One-Leg Jeans, and I Got Plenty of Stares

If you're into fashion and an avid TikTok scroller, you've probably come across the viral and somewhat controversial Coperni one-leg jeans . People who got their hands on them are asking followers how they should style them - and even whether or not they should keep them. Those who are still on a waitlist or are simply curious about the trend are going so far as to DIY the jeans by taking a scissor to one leg of an old pair. I, on the other hand, dared to step into the Romeo Hunte Black One Leg Pant ($232, originally $725), an alternative take on the same silhouette that's even more eye-catching (which, how is that possible?). These jeans were, without a doubt, one of the most polarizing looks I've ever worn - and I've tried some pretty divisive clothing, from Skims butt-enhancing shapewear to the brand's famous push-up nipple bra , and many a sheer naked dress . After wearing the jeans around town to run errands and obviously attracting some attention (st...

Oh, to Be Pedro Pascal's Sparkly Cardigan

Never have we been more envious of an inanimate object than when Pedro Pascal stepped out in a sparkly cardigan this week. As soon as we saw him walking the streets of London wearing the glittery knit, we longed to swap places with it - to be enrobing the heartthrob, catching the attention of random passersby, sparking internet discourse, and ultimately taking responsibility for his style breakout. Pascal has been serving look after look while promoting " The Last of Us " season one and "The Mandalorian" season three this year, working with stylists Julie Ragolia and Fabio Immediato . His latest came on Feb. 23 when he arrived to a radio interview wearing the shiny cardigan in question: a long button-down sweater made of silver foil yarn and created by menswear label 4SDesigns. He layered it over a sheer brown tank top and finished the look with black pants, leather boots, and his usual chunky-framed glasses. Just one day prior, the actor stopped by a photo call...
