Ich trage die Hose, die ich heute morgen angezogen habe. (I'm wearing the trousers I put on this morning.)
You cannot interchange them, as one of them is the result of doing the other. You have to put on the trousers to be wearing them. You don't wear the trousers to put them on.
tragen = wearing them right now
anziehen = the act of putting them on, you're not wearing them yet
