Custom Designed Clothing By eShakti

Did you ever wonder what it would be like to have a custom designed dress? A girl can dream, right? Well, eShakti makes this dream absolutely possible! eShakti is an online retailer that specializes in one-of-a-kind dresses, skirts, jackets and tops that offers unique designs and fit for each shopper. When I first laid eyes on this Tropical Floral Denim Dress, I knew we would be a match. I absolutely adore the sweetheart neckline, the flirty peplum bounce at the hem, and the stretchy denim material. Since I am petite on top I was nervous I wouldn't be able to keep the dress up. I love wearing strapless dresses, but I always have to be conscious of my body type.

When I learned that each piece of clothing is tailored to your height, weight, and body type I was intrigued. I have always struggled with standardized sizing. It's either too big, too short, too tight, too long, too low...you get the point. So I decided to test out the custom sizing offered by eShakti. It was a quick and easy process. I went online and browsed the recent summer collection. Once I selected a dress, I referred to the sizing chart and entered in my measurements before placing the order. I waited patiently and the dress arrived about 10 days later. I was so excited to try on the dress and to test out the fit. 

The result of the custom sizing? Absolute perfection. This dress fits me like a glove! I am so impressed with the services offered by eShakti. In addition to the custom sizing, you can also create your own style by choosing a sleeve type, length, and neckline. How cool is that?! Since I ordered a strapless dress I did not play around with the styling options, but this fall I'm going to order another dress and play around with the styling tools. Scroll down to see more eShakti looks that I am currently obsessing over! One of them is perfect for fall ;).

How adorable would this black trapeze dress look for the fall paired with cognac booties and a metallic belt? Ugh, I'm dreaming about it! I know you will enjoy the eShakti offerings as much as I do, so give it a try and let me know your thoughts.

Jeans That Lift: Lucy Marie Denim

Ahhh, there's nothing quite like the feeling of fresh denim. I love slipping on a new pair of jeans, but the process of finding a pair that actually fits and feels good can be exhausting. How many times have you gone to the mall to find a new pair and left feeling defeated and jean-less? This happens to me just about every season. I jump around from brand to brand in search for the "perfect fit," but usually I wind up settling. That is until I met Lucy Marie Denim.  
Lucy Marie Denim is a new label devoted to flaunting the natural curves of a woman all while creating an added lift. Yep, a butt lift. The "lucy lift" is the key feature to Lucy Marie Denim and provides a fit that you can't find anywhere else! The team drew inspiration from Brazilian fashion. If you've never met a Brazilian, let me paint a lovely picture for you. They all have very nice, round, tan butts. Don't ask me how, but they are all perfect!! I digress. Once I slipped on a pair of Lucy Marie's skinny jeans I knew we were a match. They hug my body in all the right places and I can't get over the butt lifting technology. If you are curious as to how the butt-lift action is accomplished then please keep reading :).
No matter the style of the denim that you prefer (skinny, boyfriend, wide leg, high-waisted) there are hundreds of ways you can wear them. One of my favorite looks to help elongate the lower half is to cuff the bottom of the jeans. It not only creates a boyfriend-ish look, but it's fun and pairs well with high heels. 
Outfit Details: Top: Nordstrom, Jeans: Lucy Marie Denim (c/o), Shoes: Chinese Laundry, Bracelet: Dor L' Dor
These jeans are reasonably priced around $115-$119. Where else can you spend that kind of money on an instant butt lift?! As promised, the secret to the the butt-lift. Drum roll please... The 'Lucy Lift' is accomplished by strategically positioned darts in the rear of the jeans. Brilliant. I'm hoping to later experiment with putting on 3 pairs at once and achieving Kim Kardashian's curvature. But really...
I am in love with my Lucy Marie Skinny Jeans and I know you will be too! Disclaimer: You will not be able to stop looking in the mirror at your bum.
