Spring Denim Trends

Wide-Leg

Whether culotte or full-length, wide-leg jeans are comfortable and polished. Scout a style that's fitted at the top with a subtle flare.

Relaxed

A hybrid of boyfriend and skinny jeans, this not-too-slouchy style looks cool in a distressed wash and low-slung fit.

High-Rise

For a cool-girl effect, look for a high rise in a light wash with a straight leg.

Fringe

This DIY look feels fresh in a cropped silhouette (aim for just above the ankle) and true blue shade.

Embroidered

Artful bohemian designs lend free-spirited style to any look.
