The Ponytail Beanie
Where I live, we have already has two pretty decent snows and the temperature has dropped below freezing. Naturally this means that it is time to break out all of the winter gear we have despite it still being technically the fall season. However, with all of the basics being covered, there still needs to be some innovation in your seasonal wardrobe once in a while. Enter, the ponytail beanie. Last winter I saw this style of beanie here and there, but it was quite the trend that it is this season. The nice part about having a ponytail beanie is that it keeps your hair from getting tangled in…

A Little Bit of Lace
Today’s featured item on the Faintly Familiar “Look Book” is an item sharing a lace detail that is right on trend with all of the lace trimmings of the season! Even on the runways for spring 2020 there are so many different designs that include some kind of lace detailing. Personally, I have always been a fan of any kind of collar, but especially the Peter Pan collar! This top that I found from Shein combines a fun and classic trend with the collar detail that I love. This particular top will be great for the autumn season, too! The collar will be perfect as a base layer underneath a…

The Happy Camper
A summertime highlight is typically a camping trip, however, I am taking this summer tradition to the next level by including it in my wardrobe! Personally, I think the idea of spending time in the great outdoors and taking in nature is what summer is all about, so naturally I wanted to celebrate this special time of the year with a fun top! Land’s End is one of my favorite brands and when I saw this button up tank top on their website I absolutely fell in love!

I am talking about what I have dubbed the “Peak-a-Boo” sweater. Why have I given this sweater such a funny nickname? No, it is not because of the impending Halloween holiday. Let me explain. The front of this sweater looks average, but when you see the back there is a curtain effect. Cute, right? Well, it doesn’t stop there! I am not wear multiple layers here, the underneath shirt is sewn together with the outer blue fabric! This extra layer acts as a…
