The Trendy Glasses Shape of 2019 & 2020
The photos in this blog post are going to be a bit strange to my Faintly Familiar Family because they will be seeing me in an unusually form. Today I am wearing glasses. Yes, the frames are my prescription based frames and a style choice occasionally. I’m a bit of a free spirit so generally I like the freedom of wearing contacts, however, I do feel like a cute pair of glasses frames can really go a long way in making your outfit look cute. Even if they are not prescription based glasses, just a fashionable pair of frames can really be the perfect accessory! With the wide variety of…

Trendy Men’s Street Style Looks for Fall 2019
It’s either already back to school for many people or it is about to be. If you are like me, I like to take the new school season as an opportunity to reinvent my personal style. Well today I have a few tips and items for you to consider when thinking about the things you will incorporate into your wardrobe for fall. One go-to item that everyone should have in their closet is a good sweater, and this is especially true for men in the fall. You no longer need to wear a jacket for those in-between weather days and they look super classy with denim of all washes. However,…

Dior Spring 2020 for Men
The final collection from the spring 2020 men’s runways that I will be reviewing is the Dior runway. Although I am disappointed that Dior did not stray from the typical pastels of the springtime, I do like that there were some textures and designs added to these looks. For instance, the shoes for this collection had a very gummy like texture and look to them that really amplified the overall neutral color tone of the runway. I also enjoyed that once in a while a bright color made a special appearance on the Dior runway. This bright shade especially stood out against the white and pastels that dominated. Another element…

Celine Spring 2020 for Men
I must admit, I was rather disappointed by the runways we saw for this spring 2020 men’s fashion week. After combing through all of the designer shows and seeing how they all look basically the same, there were only two specific runways that stood out to me enough to actually review. Celine is one of those two fashion shows that I have decided to write a Runway Review about! What stood out to me in this spring collection was the perfect mix of business and casual wear. If you look at the entire spring 2020 line up of men’s fashion, you will notice that pretty much every designer featured a…

How to Style a Trench Coat for Spring
It’s no secret that trench coats are an absolute closet essential for both men and women. We often think of it as something that we should all own, but we really don’t know how to wear it. It becomes especially difficult to style in the springtime, but it doesn’t have to be! The spring season is the perfect time to break out the trench coat because of all the pretty cherry blossom trees and the in between weather. Although styling changes from season to season, the way I like to wear a trench coat (here is the EXACT trench coat I am wearing) in the spring is with bright colors!…

Met Gala & Camp Style: What It Is & How You Can Wear It
If you don’t know yet, the annual Met Gala will be held this three days. This is the biggest night for fashion! There are always a ton of outrageous looks that celebrities pull together, and some really fantastic designers get their evening to shine and experiment with different ideas. Typically, a fashion enthusiast like myself would put together a neat little list of my favorite looks and the ones I didn’t like. But I am much more interested in the theme of Met Gala than anything that will be worn. So, today I am going to talk about what the Met Gala 2019 theme is and share a few of…

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…
