Sarah Sigmon: 2018 Fashion Highlights
I believe that a life well lived is one shared with others. This motto has shaped my 2018, and it has guided me in life. I also believe that fashion can make a moment that much more special, and the right outfit can do wonders for approaching different situations. I began Faintly Familiar with the purpose of sharing my passions and life with everyone. A large element of all of this is, of course, is fashion. So I would like to just take a moment and reflect on some on my favorite outfits from 2018! View this post on Instagram New post on the blog! Today I am discussing one…

The Arm Details in Sweaters Trend
There are so many reasons I love this sweater, but one of the biggest ones is that it fits in so perfectly with the trend I am seeing this fall/winter. So many shirts and sweaters this season have included a cute little detail along the sleeve! Whether it be lace, leather, or a simple little tie design like the one on my sweater, there are so many ways to add a little flair. I found this sweater at Kohl’s and fell in love with it immediately! It was such a good price, too! I believe I only paid maybe $10 for this sweater because it was on sale the day…

Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2019
Louis Vuitton is creating a whole new kind of street style chic! Chock full of puffy sleeves and western style ankle boots, there is nothing that is off limits with this new kind of casual style! These photos are not mine. In the wide world of high fashion, Louis Vuitton is a leading figure. Decked out in newly styled and fresh street chic designs, this runway was both reflective and futuristic. The main difference between this runway and the Balenciaga runway is that the tones of 80s throwback were nowhere to be found. This is strictly a fashion forward runway. Louis Vuitton gave us a mix of city chic, wild…

Balenciaga Spring/Summer 2019
Balenciaga gave one of the finest runway shows this year. The whole concept consisted of future meeting present. I loved all of the elements they added in, from the touch of casual with denim to the fashion forward neon. Photos by Vogue It is very rare you will find denim making its a runways debut so chicly, but if anyone could make it happen it is Balenciaga! On this very special runway for spring/summer 2019, Balenciaga created a whole entire world to surround this collection. The lights reflecting off of every wall, and the audience getting an up close look at the designs walking down the runway were all put…

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…

The Prettiest Little White Dress
Nothing is more of a closet essential than a good white dress. The little white dress can be so versatile, the dress up and dress down options are endless! For me, I love a white dress with a classic pair of cowgirl boots. Of course, you can also wear a dress like this one with sneakers and a denim jacket, too! What stood out to me about this particular white dress is the overlaying and softness! The material feels so lightweight it is perfect for hot days and long hours spent in the sun. Another detail on this dress that sold me was the string on the bodice, it adds…

Color Blocking for Men
It looks like color blocking is going to be a pretty big fall/winter trend for 2018. There is no reason that you can’t get ahead of this trend and lead the way! The aztec print t-shirt my brother Jacob is modeling is a great example of how you can us color blocking to your advantage early. The colorful print really stands apart from the solid colored pocket on the front of the tee. That one simple element is the perfect way to grow into even more color blocking as the season goes on. If you want to keep it simple and only dip a toe in the pool of color…
