• A Must Have Item for Winter 2019-2020

    Out with the old and in with the new is the song of the winter season it seems. Turtlenecks never really go out of style when it comes to a winter wardrobe, however, they do take on many different variations depending the current trends. This winter 2019-2020 season is seeing a resurgence in the mock turtleneck! I’m not the biggest fan of the traditionally tall turtleneck, but I love a good mock turtleneck. Matter of a fact, mock turtlenecks have been a small part of my layering wardrobe ever since I could remember! If you are looking to invest in some cute layering options, mock turtlenecks are the perfect go-to…

  • My Favorite Corduroy Jacket

    Corduroy has made a surprising surge for the fall fashion trend of 2019! I am not only impressed by this highly underutilized fabric, but I am also pleased with the appreciation it is finally getting! This fall 2019, we are seeing corduroy being used in a number of new and exciting fashionable ways. Between pants, hats, and jackets like the one I am wearing, corduroy is making fall fashion a lot more interesting! It is so easy to mix and match a class sweater with corduroy pants or a white t-shirt with a corduroy jacket. The way I styled my look was with a classic white t-shirt and pair of…

  • The Sherpa Jacket

    Sherpa has officially taken over the winter months as the fabric of the season! I have previously shared how sherpa pullovers have been my go-to top to stay warm during these cold days. Now I want to tell you guys about this cute sherpa jacket that I found (and love). I feel like this jacket could even be worn on the crisp, early mornings of spring. You see, the best part of this simple zip up is the texture. Unlike most other sherpa pieces, this particular jacket is the perfect mix of warm and cool. I also think the hallow circle zipper is a great little touch of something retro.…

  • 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…

  • What I’m Wearing for New Years Eve 2018

    Sequins, sequins, and more sequins! It seems that New Years Eve is always about who can wear the most glitter. Well, this year I have decided to take a little bit of a more subtle approach to New Years Eve fashion. I am focusing my whole outfit around this chic and fun tweed jacket! If you look closely enough you can see there are indeed tiny sequins sewn into the fabric of this jacket. It adds that hopeful New Years feeling to every ensemble! In the photos above I paired this tweed jacket a couple of ways. The first one was with a cute black and white printed turtle neck,…

  • The Steve Madden Puffer Jacket

    As a college student (who is thankfully on winter break until the new year – woohoo!) who walks a lot on a large campus, it is so important to find a warm jacket. It was essential for me to also find one that has a hood on it in case it gets extra freezing outside. One of my favorite places to shop is Kohl’s, and that is where I found this pretty warm jacket! Steve Madden has scored again with this piece! It is not only a beautiful shade of purple, but it is also the warmest jacket I have ever owned. I love that fact that it has a…
