Princess Sleeves for Fall 2018
For fall fashion, we already discussed the exciting neon trend that has made an appearance, and how crop tops will be the fall surprise only Faintly Familiar readers will see coming. Now, let’s take closer a look at another fall 2018 trend: the princess sleeves. Yes, you may be thinking of the Seinfeld episode with this puffy shirt, but I assure you this trend is nothing like that! I have always loved a strong shoulder in tops and and jackets, a structured shoulder can make all the difference in tailoring! The princess sleeve is that extra something added to an otherwise simple look. It is a soft, elegant feature and…

Neon for Fall 2018
Did someone say neon? The future of fashion is everything neon! We saw so much of this on the runways earlier this spring, but now it is taking over the fall’s trendiest pieces! There are many elements from the 80’s that are back in style, but they each one deserves its own article. Today I am discussing the way you can incorporate a touch of neon into your wardrobe! For the men, you can wear a cool, crisp tee that has neon lettering. Want to go all in on this trend? Wear a brightly color solid shirt! A basic, neon t-shirt will catch the eye and keep you in style…

Long Sleeve Crop Top Fall Comeback
This top above is one of the cutest, simple crop tops that would be perfect for fall! I found it online at So Aesthetic. I’m calling it now, the long sleeved crop top will be the must have for this fall! Although you would think of the crop top as strictly a summer trend, the long sleeved crop top easily slides right into the fall without any trouble. Crop tops have been back in style for a while now, but this summer there were many twists added to the simple design. We saw them become a little more uniquely trimmed with things like color blocking and embroidery. For colder days and even cooler looks,…

The Summer Floral Trend
Photos taken by Darla Sigmon (@mcsig96 on Instagram) I have never been much of a print girl, but this summer it would seem I am wearing lot more of at least one print. Normally, I like a solid color top with some denim shorts or something else simple and classic, but the floral trend bug has bitten me. Florals are HUGE this summer! You really cannot go shopping without seeing at least one flower on some sort of piece of clothing! The floral trend is so different than most other prints. Every summer it seems like there is at least one kind of print that takes over, but with florals…

The Maxi Romper

Nothing says summer like a romper, especially when it has the added drama of what I like to think of as a cape! (Honesty, it could be called something else, but I am not sure and I am not going to guess. It makes me feel like Wonder Woman so I am going with the whole cape idea.) This style of romper has been all the rage since last fall, and although we had a cold winter here in the Midwest, I have been…

The Gingham Trend
Thank you to my big brother Jacob Sigmon for being my guest model for this post! (Go give him a follow on Twitter and Instagram: @thejacobsigmon) Photos taken by Darla Sigmon (@mcsig96 on Instagram) Similar to Jacob’s look: Shirt Pants Shoes Although it never truly goes out of style, gingham has never been a hotter trend than it is right now! It was a large influence on everything in spring 2018, but it has officially been taken to the next level for the summer. In women’s fashion you can find gingham being made into skirts, shirts, trousers, platform heels, and flats. Anything…

Overalls

I decided it would be the perfect time to take the old Schwinn Bicycle out for a ride. So what do you wear on a beautiful June day when bicycling? It was time for me to breakout the summer’s biggest style trend: overalls. It seems like a classic piece like overalls never truly goes out of style. Celebrities allover Hollywood have been spotted wearing overalls, all the way from Taylor Swift to Chris Pine (yes, men can rock them too!). Even…
