My Favorite Sherpa Pullover
Sherpa has become one of the trendiest materials of this winter! Sherpa can be found in numerous formats, but personal favorite is the pullover. I have a couple of different sherpa pullovers (because they are so warm and cozy), but the pullover I am going to talk about in this blog post is my personal favorite. Why is this one so special? Well, it is such a pretty mix of colors let’s just start out with that. Not to mention it has pockets (which is an all too rare quality in women’s clothing), this pullover is such a wintertime classic! If you don’t already own something that is sherpa related,…

Why Duck Boots are a Winter Wardrobe Essential
I am not over exaggerating when I say this, if you don’t have a pair of duck boots already you have got to go get a pair today! They are so perfect for casual outfits in the wintertime, and no matter what the weather is they will get you through it! These boots even made it on my “A Few of My Favorite Things” list for winter 2018/19! Duck boots have gotten me through the sludge of fading away snow and puddles of rain. There is no other pair of shoes that are more reliable this time of year. Sometimes I see ladies where rain boots in the snow and…

Neil Barrett Fall 2019 for Men
Although Neil Barrett isn’t the household name that Calvin Klein or Ralph Lauren is, I believe someday he will be. The collection he showed for men’s fall fashion 2019 was stunning. Earlier I discussed how men’s fashion this year will be a lot about including basic colors to really make one aspect of the outfit stand out. This collection supports this whole belief. This collection really makes the print/picture of what I can only assume is Tokyo stand out. I love how this whole runway combines elements of something classic with futuristic details. The colorful vibes from the collection is also another element from these deigns that are pretty rare…

Men’s Dolce & Gabbana Fall 2019
Once again we see men’s fashion focus their attention to the timeless suit. However, this kind of suit is much more relaxed in the fitting and they are often teamed up with sneakers. We also see that, yet again, accessories are king. Lots of layers are on the runway for men’s fall 2019, and we see the bowtie making a comeback after what seemed like a longtime of the regular time dominating fashion. However, Dolce & Gabbana’s runway has a lot more prints! When I say prints I mean loud, miss matched ones! The kind that makes you wonder if this person knows what they are doing or not. Somehow…

Brioni Fall 2019
It would seem a new kind of men’s fashion is going to make a big run in 2019. This new style includes the fall color pallet I suggested for men back last fall! It also appears that a lot of the styles we will be seeing men wear in 2019 is inspired by Jeff Goldblum’s somewhat eccentric fashion. It’s evident in the thick rimmed glasses and slightly oversized suits that are making an appearance within the Brioni fall 2019 collection. Altogether, this is definitely a Faintly Familiar and Sarah Sigmon approved style! I love when designers take simple styles or colors and put them together with a fun texture. The…

Snow Day Style
If you have been watching the news as of late you will have heard about how the Midwest (where I happen to live and go to college) just received one of the largest snowstorms in years. Of course, with my luck it happened the weekend before the new semester begins and I must trudge across campus in it. So this got me thinking of all the different ways I could keep warm and still stay cute in the follow week. Today on Faintly Familiar I wanted to share a few of my ideas with you all! A Classic Winter Look Although I don’t advise going into the cold without a…

A Few of My Favorite Things Winter 2018/19
Now that the winter season has officially begun, I want to continue my “A Few of My Favorite Things” series where I share with you a few of the products and brands that I have discovered or just love to use! This is one of my favorite series to write for on my blog because after these post go up on Faintly Familiar I always get a great response from my readers who want to share the products they love as well! Duck Boots I can’t tell you enough how much I love my Tommy Hilfiger duck boots! Although these boots probably wouldn’t be ideal to wear if there was…

Faux Fur Coats for the Luxury Look
This winter fashion has seen an influx of more luxurious looks. Between animal prints and faux fur, so much of street style these days has influences of old Hollywood. Back in the Silver Screen days, ladies would clamor just to say that they had a mink coat. Having a mink coat was a sign of your social and economic status in the United States. However, we know so much more about what goes into creating coats or other garments with real fur. Thankfully fashion has begun to embrace faux fur and they are no longer promoting using real fur on the runways. Enter in the faux fur coat trend. This…

The Best of 2018
Today I would like to share a few of the things that Faintly Familiar readers were kind enough to tell me about. These are all of the different parts that made my readers’ 2018 special. So here we go! This is the best of 2018! Books The books pictured above are a few that Faintly Familiar readers also read in 2018. Not going to lie, Girl, Wash Your Face was everywhere this year and it definitely peaked my interest. However, I never found the time to sit down and actually read it. Maybe 2019 will be the year I read a bit more outside of college classes. Beauty Products For…
