9 Surprisingly Cool Camo Outfits to Try

"Look at the cute camo outfit" is likely not a sentence you utter often, because let's face it: The print is just not that easy to style.

But when have we ever not been game for a wardrobe challenge?

We turned to some of our favorite fashion editors (and street style stars) for ways to create cute camo outfits this spring and even included a few of our favorite pieces for you to shop as a start. Scroll down to find out why camouflage is the unexpected must-have pattern right now. Which look is your favorite?
