What I Wore for Thanksgiving 2019
Big family occasions call for the right outfit. I think we can all agree that the holidays become extra special once everyone is in the same room, and lots of photos ensue. Today I want to share what I wore for Thanksgiving 2019, and how a simple outfit can sometimes be the right choice to keep that timeless vibe. If you have been reading Faintly Familiar for any amount of time, you will recognize the coat I decided to sport for this very special holiday. Peacoats are a weakness of mine. They always look classy, put together, and depending on whether or not the peacoat has a print it can…

What I’m Wearing for Easter 2019
Happy Easter, everyone! This was always one of my favorite holidays growing up and even today I still love the atmosphere and purpose of getting together to celebrate with family. Unfortunately for me, the Midwestern spring weather gives me a lot of wind! Hence the wearing pants and not a dress. There will be plenty of time for dresses this summer when things warm up and the wind slows down. This blue sweater came along just in time for the Easter holiday! I found it on sale at Old Navy and it was featured in my post about the neon trend. Of course, this blue isn’t necessarily neon, but I…

The sweater I am going to be talking about today has quickly become one of my favorite sweaters of all-time! It is the perfect mix of warm and cool, and it has a super cute pattern near the neckline.

The tiny white flecks look so sophisticated to me and it works for all kinds of different accessories. If you read my post about scarves, you have already seen this sweater and all of the super cute ways to style it. Honestly, I…

Oui, Oui, & Merci!
I struggled to think of a cute and fitting title for this particular post, but I never struggle in the morning to pick this sweater! France has an undeniable history with fashion and they have always been highly influential on what women of that time were wearing. That is what makes this top so perfect for paying homage to that long, varied history. Although I have never been to France (let alone somewhere as fabulous as Paris), I like to think that wearing this top helps to give my wardrobe that timeless French flair. Not only is it a nice tip of the hat to fashion history, it also has…

The Arm Details in Sweaters Trend
There are so many reasons I love this sweater, but one of the biggest ones is that it fits in so perfectly with the trend I am seeing this fall/winter. So many shirts and sweaters this season have included a cute little detail along the sleeve! Whether it be lace, leather, or a simple little tie design like the one on my sweater, there are so many ways to add a little flair. I found this sweater at Kohl’s and fell in love with it immediately! It was such a good price, too! I believe I only paid maybe $10 for this sweater because it was on sale the day…

The Perfect Pumpkin Patch Ensemble
It is my favorite time of year! Fall is when Sarah lives her best life! I am sure that I am not alone when feeling that fall is easily one of the most beautiful seasons. What really makes me love this time of year is the weather! As the weather gets colder it calls for more layers, and more layers means more clothing! Woohoo!! In celebration of the impending Halloween holiday, I decided to go to a cute little pumpkin patch located in my hometown! I felt like Charlie Brown in the Great Pumpkin! It had been years since I went pumpkin picking so this was an extra special occasion,…
