Okay, so, let’s talk about this whole “2014 style” thing. I decided to give it a shot, you know, just for kicks. I started by digging up some old stuff from back then, and man, it was a trip down memory lane.
First off, I gathered all those old fashion magazines and online articles from 2014. Remember those? Bright colors, crazy patterns, and a whole lot of mixing and matching. I was specifically looking for those monochrome looks and those acrylic pelts. I even looked for some info about Nicolas Ghesquire’s debut collection for Louis Vuitton. It was like putting together a puzzle, trying to remember what we used to think was cool.
- Flipping through those pages, I started to piece together what made 2014, well, 2014.
- Then, I experimented with different combinations, trying to recreate those iconic looks.
- And the high-low skirts! Oh man, those were everywhere. I tried one on, and it actually looked pretty good. Who knew?
- I combined the monochrome look with some lacy minidresses.
- I found some data about pleated skirts, which were popular at the time, and I incorporated them into my ensemble.
- I read that Anna Wintour presented Rihanna with the 2014 CFDA Fashion Icon award, and she wore a fishnet gown embellished with over 200… somethings. I didn’t try to recreate that one, though.
It was tough, not gonna lie. Some of those trends were… interesting, to say the least. But I persevered, mixing and matching, trying to find that sweet spot between nostalgia and, you know, not looking like I just stepped out of a time machine.
I documented the whole process, snapping pics and jotting down notes about what worked and what didn’t. It was like a fashion experiment, and I was the mad scientist, hah!
The Final Look
After a few days of experimenting, I finally nailed it. I managed to put together an outfit that felt like 2014, but still wearable today. It wasn’t perfect, but it was mine. And you know what? It was actually kinda fun. Made me appreciate how much fashion has changed, but also how some things never really go out of style. It was a good reminder that fashion is all about expressing yourself, no matter the year.
So, yeah, that’s my 2014 style adventure. It was a wild ride, but I’m glad I did it. Maybe I’ll try another year next time. What do you think? Any suggestions?
