eShakti FX: New Custom-Styling Option to Design the Dress as YOU Want It!

Fashion shopping can be fun and frustrating at the same time. Have you ever spotted a dress you love but wish the crew neck were v-neck, the sleeves shorter, or the dress longer? eShakti, the online boutique known for their made-to-order clothing for women, can turn your wishes into reality with their custom styling options. Better yet, their exciting new feature called FX allows you to easily visualize what your custom made dress will look like until you find the design that you really want.

Now when you browse the dress collection at eShakti.com, you will notice a little green FX symbol on the upper right corner of some of the pictures. All items marked with this symbol are those with the FX custom-styling option. Let me show you how it works in an instant.

For instance, you are interested in getting this Colorblock Cotton Knit Asymmetric Hem Dress with the FX option. When you are on the product page, simply scroll down to "Step 3: Customize It To Your Style". Besides the custom styling options, which are pretty standard with most items on eShakti, there is a picture that will change as you change your selection. It's easier than ever to see what the dress will be like with different design combinations!

Sweetheart Neck Printed Dress Review & Giveaway {Falling into Fall Giveaway Hop} #FallingIntoFall

Started out as an online store for tech gadget and electronics, GearBest.com has now expanded to carry woman's fashion items including dresses, tees, sweaters, jackets, jeans and more. Their products are available a wide variety of fashion-forward designs, trendy patterns and colors that fit women of different shapes and sizes. The vast majority of their pieces are offered at deeply discounted prices under $50, with over 100 priced under $10! It's time to shop for your fall wardrobe and GearBest is a great place to get started.

After browsing GearBest's latest collection, I set my eyes on this classy Sweetheart Neck Printed Dress, which I received for review. The dress exceeded my expectations with its perfect and flattering fit. The fabric is soft, comfortable, elastic, and breathable. My favorite parts of the design are the 3/4 length sleeves and the a-line dress that goes above the knees. The color and pattern make it easy to match any cardigan, coat, or leggings, when you need an extra layer for cooler weather in fall. I look slimmer and taller in this dress and I've already received tons of compliments from family, friends, and even strangers. The dress normally retails for $77, but is now on sale for just $47.88.

The Giveaway

GearBest has generously offered to give one of my lucky readers their very own Sweetheart Neck Printed Dress free of charge! They ship worldwide. Be sure to visit their online store to browse all their collections and shop the incredible deals while they last.

Holiday Gift Guide Giveaway: Shabby Apple Dress!

Fashion-related items always rank high on my holiday wishlist. Filled with parties and celebrations, the holiday season is the perfect time to dress up and to reward yourself with a fresh new look. If you're still looking for a holiday gift that will brighten up a woman's day, check out Shabby Apple, an online boutique well-recognized for their unique collection of dresses, skirts and women's apparel for different occasions, along with fashion accessories like jewelry, shoes and handbags. I adore many of their vintage-inspired designs that never go out of style. I'm also impressed with their use of vibrant colors and creative incorporation of ruffles, bows, frills and lace into styles that address the needs of different body shapes.

One of my favorites is this sleek and flirty Tiber dress. Bedecked with a tailored bodice, boat neck and elbow-length sleeves, the empire waisted frock hugs close to the body for a figure conscious shape. The knee-length skirt has just a bit of flare which is accentuated by the variegated bands of the Sarah Hansen-designed fabric.

A simple shift takes on a new form with a lei of tucks, folds and petal-like ruffles along the rounded scoop neck of the Bali Ha'i dress. Princess seams and careful tailoring keep the shape classic, and the cap sleeves and deep orchid color make it summer's perfect stand-alone piece.

Put on a sunny, sophisticated look with the Pineapple Princess dress. The woven cotton poplin/spandex blend fabric combines with a fitted skirt and bodice to create a sensuous silhouette. An eight inch ruffle at the waistline adds the perfect feminine flare.

I love the playful bird-and-vine print of the Cecily skirt. Blending colors of buttery yellow, rosy pink, and deep fig, this designer cotton woven offers easy and flattery fit with its vintage-inspired pencil cut design.

Want more inspirations for gift ideas? Shabby Apple has put together an exclusive holiday gift guide to help you make a smart choice. December is the best time for Shabby Apple fans to stock up on some beautiful dresses because lots of styles are on sale and shipping is free all month long! Don't miss these great offers!

Shabby Apple Dress Giveaway!

I love dresses. I love vintage-inspired styles. I love simple yet timeless fashion. That's why I heart Shabby Apple, where I can find the best presentation of all the things I love! Striving to offer "great dresses that make dressing simple", Shabby Apple boasts a huge selection of uniquely designed women's dresses that will help you look elegant and fabulous for almost any occasion.

Here are a few examples:

Spanish Steps

In celebration of spring, Shabby Apple has added quite a few new dresses to their collection and Spanish Steps ($88) is one of them. It pairs a soft, cotton jersey with a gorgeous skirt that swirls just below your knee. It looks comfortable and cheerful. The satin sash and the appliquéd, ruched flowers and leaves make the dress stand out.

San Gabriel

I'm a big fan of ruffles. The ruffled cap-sleeves and high ruffle collar of San Gabriel ($86) really appeal to me. The light grey color creates a cool and refreshing look while the gold metallic buttons gives the dress a slightly military inspired feel. Love this trendy and exquisite design.

Nine To Five

Do you work nine to five? Whether or not, this beautiful apple green Nine To Five dress is sure to make you shine and smile with confidence. The tie collar, along with ruched sleeves and seams, adds incredible femininity to this simple knit dress. It's a great buy too--only $62.

Moon River

Last but not least, the stunningly elegant Moon River dress ($92) is one of my favorites from Shabby Apple (I find it extremely hard to select just one favorite). Carefully constructed from stretch sateen, the dress features a high, wide boat neck, fitted bodice, cap sleeves, and a slightly tapered skirt descending from four flouncy ruffles at the low waist. It's perfect for a date night or a cocktail party.

These dresses look fantastic on the models, but will they look the same on a woman who doesn't have a flattery figure? To address this common concern, Shabby Apple provides handy style tools on their website to assist you in choosing the style that best fits your body type. I love this statement: "Shabby Apple celebrates the short legs, curvy hips, straight waists and flat chests in all of us."

Are you ready to shop? Use coupon code icefairy10off to receive 10% off any order. I also found this free shipping code ROMEFREESHIP from Living Modest (good until 4/15). Besides regular dresses, Shabby Apple also offers adorable little girls dresses and maternity dresses. Don't forget to check out what's on sale and dresses under $50!
