• The Two Toned Denim Trend

    Something I have been noticing a lot more of recently is that two toned denim in long jeans and shorts has become something of a micro-trend. Personally, I find this micro-trend very fun and unique! This really will add a little something extra that you can mix and match both spring and summer outfits with. I recently purchased a pair of denim shorts that features this two toned denim look and I thought it would be so much fun to try with different tops and blouses. Also, you wear a pair of the trendy white cowboy boots or just a classic brown pair they will look super cute with these…

  • How to Wear the Neon Trend This Spring

    Months and months ago I predicted that neon was slowly becoming one of the trendiest color schemes of fall 2018. At the time I didn’t know it, but I was also predicting one of the biggest trends of spring 2019, too! I know that pastel is typically the colors that come to mind when you think of spring fashion, but I am here to say that there is most certainly plenty of room in the colorful spring market for more bold shades. Today, I want to expand on that prediction by talking a little bit about how you can incorporate neon into your spring wardrobe. #1. Try a bright version…

  • 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 Christmas Eve 2018

    Oh the holiday season! Arguably one of my favorite times of the year! Why? Well, there is just something so magical in the air. Maybe it is the twinkling lights? Or the snow that sometimes covers the ground? Or maybe it is just because people seem to be a little more kind to one another this time of year? Whatever the reasoning is, one thing I do know for sure is that winter fashion has always been one of my favorites seasons to dress for! The addition of more layers makes the mixing and matching of closet staples with trendy accessories even more exciting than it normally is! I also…

  • Louis Vuitton Spring/Summer 2019

    Louis Vuitton is creating a whole new kind of street style chic! Chock full of puffy sleeves and western style ankle boots, there is nothing that is off limits with this new kind of casual style! These photos are not mine. In the wide world of high fashion, Louis Vuitton is a leading figure. Decked out in newly styled and fresh street chic designs, this runway was both reflective and futuristic. The main difference between this runway and the Balenciaga runway is that the tones of 80s throwback were nowhere to be found. This is strictly a fashion forward runway. Louis Vuitton gave us a mix of city chic, wild…

  • Chanel Spring/Summer 2019

    Chanel took their classic style to the seaside this season! It served up some fresh, vacation ready inspiration for next summer as well as setting some cool trends in the makeup department. Chanel also transformed their classic tweed suits just for the day on the beach! I simply love this look above! Basically what Chanel is trying to say is that a Chanel girl can make even a burlap bag look good if the name Chanel is on it. Photos by Vogue If you have never worn Chanel to the beach before, don’t worry you are not alone. Chanel is being taken places it has never been before! No other runway this…

  • Tom Ford Spring/Summer 2019 for Men

    The Tom Ford Spring/Summer 2019 New York Fashion Week runway show was one that will be very memorable for many reasons, and one of those being the men’s styles we saw. The mix of designs and materials that we saw on the women’s fashion were a little different from what saw on the men. Photos by Vogue Where the ladies’ designs were more 1920’s inspired, the men’s seemed to be more aligned with the 1970’s. The domination of suits made for a very classy runway, yet kept a much more relaxed feel. There were no ties or strict buttoning rather the addition of a scarf gave these these suits a…

  • Princess Sleeves for Fall 2018

    For fall fashion, we already discussed the exciting neon trend that has made an appearance, and how crop tops will be the fall surprise only Faintly Familiar readers will see coming. Now, let’s take closer a look at another fall 2018 trend: the princess sleeves. Yes, you may be thinking of the Seinfeld episode with this puffy shirt, but I assure you this trend is nothing like that! I have always loved a strong shoulder in tops and and jackets, a structured shoulder can make all the difference in tailoring! The princess sleeve is that extra something added to an otherwise simple look. It is a soft, elegant feature and…
