4 Denim Looks That Nail Spring's Biggest Trends
I've always felt like spring denim gets the short end of the stick. But not only is it the perfect transition piece to pair with T-shirts when it's still too cool for shorts, but it's also a simple way to make a statement when bold sweaters and fur jackets can no longer be the hero pieces of your outfit.
Walmart gets it. The retailer's latest denim arrivals are filled with both subtle silhouettes that still look effortlessly chic (looking at you, dark-wash denim) and bold pieces that will earn you countless compliments (hot-pink pants, anyone?). Check out the four spring trends we found stocked and ready for shopping on Walmart's virtual shelves.
Personality Picks
It feels reductive to say that personal style is "in," because when was it ever out? But after years of quiet luxury and minimalism, personality-filled pieces are finally getting the attention they deserve. Walmart knows how to make a statement with eyelet laced jeans, printed pants, and more.
Barrel-Leg Styles
The key to nailing spring's barrel-leg trend (without feeling like you're in a full cowboy costume) is finding styles that offer a subtle inseam curve. The Free Assembly pairs below are great entry points for those who are new to the trend—but if you've been rocking barrel-leg jeans for a few years now, try the Scoop or Jessica Simpson styles.
Dark-Wash Must-Haves
We often associate spring with lighter palettes—pastels, pale pinks, and butter yellows—but this season, dark-wash denim is still reigning supreme. Go for a straight-leg style or try two spring trends at once with dark-wash jeans in a cuffed-ankle style.
Laid-Back Essentials
I associate spring with ease and relaxation, so it feels fitting that another major spring denim trend is effortless, loose, and laid-back fits. Ditch the second-skin feeling for wide-leg jeans, or better yet, overalls.
