Dress – eShakti c/o | Heels – Nine West
This dress. This dress. This dress. Words cannot express the love! When eShakti contacted me to review their site, my mind immediately jumped to New Year’s Eve festivities and the age old question of “What will I wear!?” Naturally, my first thought was ALL THE SEQUINS. It is like some unwritten rule that you must wear sequins for New Year’s Eve. But let’s be real, did you EVER wear that sequined little number you got for last NYE again? My guess is that it is still hanging in the back of your closet. So here is an idea – stand out from the sea of sparkles (but keep that same wow factor) and look timeless and classy in something that you will wear over and over and over again – a little black dress. You can still add that festive sparkle to your look with a statement earring or a pair of fun heels (like these gorgeous Kate Spade pumps), but instead of a one-time wear, you have added a great staple to your wardrobe that will never go out of style.
Let’s talk about eShakti a little more. Besides the website, you can also find them on facebook, pinterest and instagram. I was so excited when they reached out to me because I honestly had never heard of the site before, and I love finding new places to shop! When I first visited the site, I remember my thought was “how cool!!” – and here is why. Do you ever find a dress, or maybe a top or skirt, that you love – except the length is a little short? Or the sleeves do not quite hit exactly where you want them to? Maybe the neckline is too risqué for your liking. I know it happens to me pretty often, and I always hate putting a piece I love back on the shelf because of that one little aspect that just isn’t right. eShakti wants to fix that problem with customizable, made-to-order clothing. Each item has the option for you to either go with standard sizing, OR enter your exact measurements and have it tailored to perfection. The fun doesn’t stop there – you also have the option to buy the piece as it is seen on the site, OR customize the neckline, sleeve and/or skirt length to your wishes. All bodies are not created equal, so why should clothes be?
The entire ordering process was so easy, and the team kept me updated on the status of my order till it arrived at my doorstep. The customization fee is only $7.50. If you have had something tailored, you will agree that is a very reasonable fee. Here are a few of my other eShakti favorites:
I am so happy to have found this online boutique and be able to share it with you. Use the coupon code “sweetteasouthernstyle” as many times as you want until 01/29/2016 to get 10% off your order! You can even combine it with other promotions 🙂 I hope this look gives you some great ideas for your New Year’s Eve, and the motivation to say NO to spandex covered in sequins!!
Blessings,
