| Dress: c/o eShakti (on sale! ends today!), Petticoat: Leg Avenue, Shoes: via DSW, Necklace: c/o smartcouture, Bracelet: smartcouture, Lips: Mac Viva Glam I |
All dressed up with nowhere to go! I wish I could say that I have some amazing holiday parties coming up but I don’t. I would love to wear this eShakti dress out during the holiday season!
This is the third time eShakti has been kind enough to let me review one of their items and I think this one might be my favorite. I just feel so classy!
eShakti is an online company that specializes in customizable clothing for all sizes! You can pick from the standard version or you can alter the length, sleeve length and style, necklines and more! They also have a really great selection of retro style dress.
I choose this dress because I just wanted a classy black dress. It has an elastic waist panel in the back so it stretches to fit perfectly. It also has pockets! (A lot of the sShakti dresses and skirts have the option to include pockets or not which I love!). I happen to fit one of the standard sizes so I didn’t feel the need to put in my own measurements. I chose the above knee length and put in my height. I have noticed that eShakti tends to be conservative with their lengths. I actually put my height as 1 inch shorter than I actually am hoping that the length would be a little shorter because they customize the dress to your height. I still wouldn’t call this length “above the knee” but I still think it looks good. And too add a little more “poof” I added a petticoat! I found a black knee length petticoat on amazon.com and it just added a little extra shape to this dress. Overall, I very happy with it. The fit is perfect and I love the style!
I also have to mention the gorgeous jewels I’m wearing. This matching set is from smartcouture. They were kind enough to send me the necklace and I loved it so much I bought the matching bracelet. Check back here wednesday for an amazing giveaway from this new online boutique!

Girl. You are STUNNING!
What an elegant lady! Perfect LBD!
You look absolutely breathtakingly gorgeous!! Wow.. that dress becomes you..so very pretty! Stopping by from the monday link up..
That dress does look holiday perfect, and I'm glad you've had such good luck with your eshakti clothes… I can't really say the same. I also think that length looks perfect on you, even if it is a little longer than you'd wanted.
Chic on the Cheap
That dress is stunning on you! The last eShakti dress I ordered was also too long on me.

You look amazing in that dress! So classic and perfect for the holiday season. I say just go out to dinner and wear it, if you need an excuse. 🙂

You look so pretty – what a great dress from eShakti! I love reviewing their stuff, as well (though oddly, the last dress I received was really big on me).
Love this classy look! Did you change the neckline to deep V or leave it as a wide V?
