Burberry Spring 2020
There are a lot of different aspects of this runway I will be covering today with this Runway Review. I am picking up a lot of notes on spring trends that have been consistent across several collections and I will compile them all into one blog post for you all later after Fashion Month. However, today’s Burberry spring 2020 collection has a lot to give us to talk about, so lets get started! First of all, I just want to say that Burberry did a splendid job differentiating themselves from the last spring collection we saw from them. Typically, this brand leans into the classic trench coat and scarf look…

What I’m Wearing for St. Patrick’s Day 2019
Whether you are superstitious like me or not, the truth is no one wants to be pinched simply for not wearing green on any particular day. But that doesn’t mean you have to completely deck yourself out in shamrocks either! This year, I am taking a bit of a different approach to St. Patrick’s Day. Instead of wearing the normal bright green shamrock t-shirt or a “Kiss me I’m Irish” sweater, try going for a more versatile (and dare I say timeless) look. For instance, the top I am wearing above is not only an easy solution for St. Patrick’s Day, but it is also something that can be worn…

A Simple Outfit for Valentine’s Day and Galentine’s Day
Whether your celebrating Valentine’s Day or Galentine’s Day this year we can all agree a simple go-to outfit always comes in handy. Although it is fun to get dressed up for a night out on the town, wearing a cozy sweater never gets old. This is the time of year we see red become the shade of the season, I like to part from tradition a little. Pink has always been one of my favorite colors so I will use any excuse to wear it. That is why I have chosen to sport this pink turtleneck I found at Gordman’s. It is so soft, and I love that it has…

How to Add a Little Spring Into Your Winter Wardrobe
I think we can all agree that January can feel a little dreary every once in a while. Between cabin fever and all of the cold weather (depending on your location – if you live near the beach I envy you), it can feel like this whole winter thing may never end. Well, I am here to say there is a better way to create a little reprieve! If you have been reading Faintly Familiar for a while now, you already know that neon has been the “it” color trend since the fall of 2018. I wrote about this trend back in the fall, you can read that post here.…

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…

Why Fruit Prints are Not Just for Women
This summer we have seen prints of all kinds. Gingham, geometric, aztec, and so many more, but fruit is the one to me that seems so different and fun! I have seen so many ladies wear some of the prettiest lemon printed dresses and blouses, it occurred to me that this lasting trend works great on men, too! Throwing on a crisp button up with a cool print like the one above can be such a fun way to not only stay on trend, but to also stand out. This would be the perfect outfit for a cookout, night with family and friends, or a trip to the movies! As the…

CaseApp
As the new semester rapidly approaches, I am working hard at putting together new supplies to bring to college! Two of my most valuable tools are definitely my computer and phone. They are the way I communicate with others, and my computer is what helps me write the many papers I need to create in order to succeed. It is so important that I take care of both my phone and computer! I simply can’t risk either of these things getting damaged or lost. That is why going into my sophomore year of college I am collaborating with CaseApp! One of the main aspects I love about CaseApp is the…

Gingham Tank
Not to long ago, I wrote a blog post calling gingham one of the biggest prints of the summer. This prediction did not disappoint! I found this cute tank top at Target. The ruffle was one of my favorite features about this tank when I bought it. However, the first day I wore this top there was a bit of a breeze outside and I had that ruffle flying in my face. It provided for some pretty funny blooper photos though so I was fine with it. Sometimes the wind is our friend and sometimes it is not. Either way, this gingham look is classic and a total win whether…
