The New York Fashion Week Inspired T-Shirt
Not to be dramatic or anything, but I made my first ever purchase from the fashion brand known as Zara and I am pretty proud of it! Shopping at Zara may seem like something that is pretty casual to some people, but to me it was a moment I will never forget. Ever since the age of about eleven I have loved the fashion brand Zara. This love was not spurred on just from the fabulous fashion that they have, but also because of the women I looked up to who wore this brand. Exhibit A: The Duchess of Cambridge (A.K.A. Kate Middleton)! Kate Middleton has been a source of…

The Underrated Style of Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy
Any woman whose mother-in-law was Jacqueline Kennedy-Onassis (I just wrote a post all about Jackie’s style too) would have been a little nervous when it came to filling in Jackie’s fashion shoes.

I love the look or straight down and flared pants. This retro look is something I have been championing since the beginning of Faintly Familiar and one I will probably always wear even when the runways decide to ditch the look. A lot of fall…

Movie Monday: Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961)
Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961) movie poster Today’ #MovieMonday will be all about reviewing the timeless style of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s (1961). It is safe to say that Audrey served up some serious looks in this film so lets get started! These photos are not mine. Breakfast at Tiffany’s is easily one of the most influential movies, stylistically speaking, to hit the silver screen since…well probably another Audrey Hepburn film. Unlike Sabrina (1954) or Roman Holiday (1953), Audrey is no longer playing characters who are young and somewhat naive. In this film she is a mature woman who knows how to make a decision for herself, and those traits are clearly articulated in the…
