Skinny Cargo Pants: Love Them or Hate Them?
J Brand Houlihan Skinny Cargo Pants?

Khloe Kardashian, Hillary Duff, Rihanna and Gwen Stephanie have all been seen sporting this spring's trend of skinny cargo pants. The trendy shopping site, Boutiquetoyou.com recently showcased the above beauties wearing J Brand's Houlihan Skinny Cargo pant.

We have to admit, we are not such big fans of the look. You can tell a pair of cargo pants by their large, bulky pockets set at mid-thigh. Skinny cargos are at least more slimming as they are cut closer to the body. But still, there is added bulk on the legs which is not always the most flattering. Our take on the trend: If you like skinny cargo pants, try to find a pair that won't break the bank, like the Victoria's Secret pair below. Wear them with a casual top - oversized or slim fitting - as the celebs are styled above.

Stores and online boutiques are selling out of the J Brand Houlihan Skinny Cargos faster than I can type this. So, obviously some people love the look! What about you? Do you like this trend? Will you be looking for a pair of skinny cargo pants anytime soon?

J Brand Houlihan Skinny Cargo Pant Ralph Lauren Swat Cargo Pant Joie Mondrian Stretch Skinny Pant

I think this look is hot, personally. Khloe Kardashian is gorgeous and can totally rock the skinny cargos!
  Ari     164 days ago
Love 'em too!

I disagree with the above and do not like this trend at all. It's not flattering - the pockets are ugly, I would not wear these.
  JESSU     160 days ago
I like them! I prefer khakis with no pockets though, or at least that's what I'm hunting for at the moment.

I'm not hating them but I won't run out to buy a pair just yet. I'm going to sit on the fence on this one for a bit longer! :-)

I think Khloe looks the best out of those pictures, but I can't see this trend lasting too long.
  Skinnypurse     160 days ago
Marney & Jules: Agreed, Khloe seems to wear the look the best in the above pics.
Steph May & Jessu: Yep, the pockets don't do it for me either!
Ashling: This is definitely one of those trends that will be interesting to see how long it sticks around.

still on the fence on this one...need to try one on #1 and #5 are good options I think

I love this trend! Khloe can rock anything. Personally, the capris style seems sort of middle school to me, having graduated high school in 2004, but the full length skinnies are hot.
