So we were excited to learn that Walmart recently dropped hundreds of new items for two of its private-label fashion brands, Free Assembly and Scoop. The lineup of stylish dresses, colorful blouses, jeans and more is perfect for transitioning from winter to spring. The best part? Almost everything is under $40.
