Listed below are a few of the issues we have featured on April 14 over time…
April 14, 2023: Banjanan Constance Costume
This was, admittedly, one in all my picks for Weekend Open Thread… it is humorous how only a few years have handed and it seems to be a bit dated to my eyes. What do you suppose, readers? Possibly I am simply not imagining it appropriately…

You may nonetheless discover Past Yoga at Nordstrom.
April 14, 2016: J.Crew Peplum, Colorblocked High
Hoo – this J.Crew prime encapsulates so many traits from the mid-2010s. Colorblocking? Verify. Peplum? Verify. Unclear whether or not for work or play? Verify.
Curiously, I feel peplum may be swinging again — I practically featured it within the part on “new choices to put on on prime of labor tops” put up that we did final week. The Fold has quite a lot of choices, to make certain.

I nonetheless l just like the look of the blazer — how are you carrying the Regent blazer in the present day?
April 14, 2011: Escada Giraffe Print Costume
So far as sheath attire go, I like this one — the cap sleeves, the hem size, the large boatneck are particulars that I’ve all the time thought have been flattering for sheath attire. I do not suppose we have seen tremendous giant giraffe prints like this shortly, however then once more, this was a Splurge Monday decide, so the thought was that it was one thing completely different and funky.
The Escada gown was $995 at Bloomingdale’s again then.

April 14, 2010: Geometric Wrap Costume
Huh. This gown completely would have been my jam again in 2010, however now… huh. It is form of humorous (to me, at the very least) that I like to recommend carrying it with purple heels, as a result of for some cause in the present day I can not think about something extra hideous, particularly if I add a thick platform like all of the heels had again then.
I can not fairly put my finger on what I do not like in regards to the gown, past the truth that it seems to be like a maternity gown with the waistband.
April 14, 2009: The DVF Julian Wrap
In 2009, we featured this beautiful wrap gown, which is about as basic as they arrive: the Diane von Furstenberg Julian gown, which is nonetheless bought in the present day (and briefly even got here in plus sizes). We famous it was $325 full value however on sale for $243; these days the complete value is nearer to $600.
The wrap gown is not out — I feel if you happen to noticed a girl carrying this in the present day you’d nonetheless suppose she appeared polished and funky — however you actually see loads much less of them in the present day, or those you do see have a little bit of an extended or shorter hemline. Actually, the entire Julian attire on the DvF web site in the present day are minis.
(You may, of COURSE, discover a bunch of them on Poshmark, Vestiaire Collective, and different resale websites as nicely.)
