eShakti Review

* This is a sponsored post but all opinions are 100% my own.

Let me start off by saying that I am by no means a fashion blogger but when Jane from eShakti contacted me about reviewing a dress, I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. Actually, I think I squealed like a pig from the excitement of my first product review and then decided I couldn’t pass up the opportunity. #bloggerperks

I’ve seen eShakti all over blog land recently and really loved the fact that they’re so customizable. However, I didn’t realize just how customizable they were until I was picking out which item I wanted to review.  Many of their items can be customized by the sleeve type, length and neck line. Trust me, the possibilities are endless!

When I realized that not only do they customize your size and style but also your height, I was in heaven! You see, I’m almost 5’9 and adore maxi dresses. Do you know how hard it is to find a maxi dress that doesn’t hit me above my ankles???

I actually saw this dress on a blog a few weeks ago and adored it from the moment I laid my eyes on it. How fun are the birds and the embroidery details? I just love it and I knew this type of dress was right up Cory’s alley and little bit out of my box. {I was right, by the way. He loves it, too!}

And you just can’t go wrong with tassels.

I had the option to change the straps to either halter or spaghetti but decided to keep the cross-over straps in the back.

I was a little hesitant on ordering the correct size because I never buy clothes without trying them on first. My size varies so much with different brands and often times I will go into a store, try something on and go home and order it in the correct color or length. This dress was spot on to my normal dress size, though, and fit like a glove.

I did have a moment of panic when I couldn’t get it over my shoulders until I realized there was a partial zipper in the side.

And the best part of all???

It was long enough! Halleluiah!

As soon as I got home and saw my eShakti package on the table, I tore into it and held the dress up to my body and thought “no way is this going to be long enough” but as you can tell, it’s actually long enough for me to wear heels with {which I doubt I will ever do since I own exactly one pair of heels}. My biggest pet peeve, though, is having skirts, dresses, jeans, or whatever else I put on my legs be too short so it was a huge plus that this dress is long enough.

The only negative about this dress is the bottom part is a little sheer. Maybe I just worry excessively about this but I’m always scared I’m going to get in the sun light and everyone is gonna be able to see my underwear. I wore this dress Saturday evening to Daniel and Tiffany’s reveal party and threw on a slip {yes, like an old granny slip} underneath it and had no issues!

As you can probably tell, I’m officially in love with this dress and will definitely be shopping with eShakti in the future. Make sure you head on over to eShakti and start shopping- don’t forget to sign up today and receive $25 gift card!
