Happy Tuesday all!

My relationship with eShakti is like on/off again boyfriend. First we’re  together, then we break up for awhile and then we eventually find our way back to one another.  Our latest “break up” was nearly a year long because the last dress ordered fit so poorly I swore I would never buy from them again.   For the most part I was maintaining  our “break up” until this lovely dress jumped at me off the screen.  I knew I had to reach out and reconcile with eShakti.   As with any relationship there are issues and the source of mine was the fit of their clothes.  I always felt like I was playing roulette when ordering an item.  Sometimes the item would fit okay and other times not so much. Luckily this  time around the fit of the dress was right on the money.   It feels like eShakti might have addressed their previous fit issues and made necessary improvements.  If you’re not one for standard sizing, eShakti offers custom tailoring for an additional $9.95 to fit your body measurements.  If you’re going to do custom sizing, I would highly recommend getting a seamstress or tailor to take your measurements to ensure you get the correct numbers.

While eShakti is not perfect, they are and have always been committed to size inclusion with their clothing . All their clothes (and I mean ALL) is offered in  sizes 0 to 36. They don’t false advertise stating their clothing will include plus but then backtrack by picking and choosing a few items to be offered in plus (yeah Target x Who What Wear collaboration I’m looking at you!). By being inclusive, they are acknowledging that PS women want to look good and feel amazing too!

If you want to give eShakti a whirl, click here to sign up to get $30 off your first purchase (sorry this offer is only open to new eShakti subscribers).

Have a wonderful day!

    You look like spring perfection, love the dress and bag! Eshakti have always been on my radar but I’ve never bought anything from them yet!

    I’ve had the same problem with eShakti too (I thought it was just me)! I love their clothes but don’t always get the best fit.

    I’ve had issues with them as well. Years ago I ordered a pair of leggings. One of the questions was my height: 5 ft, 0 in. Zero inches. I received the leggings and they had an inseam of 32″ or 33″!!! That’s not an inseam for a shorty! I was mad because at the bottom of the leggings were buttons that I thought were cute, that’s why I got them in the first place. I had to wear them all bunched up until I just got tired of them and donated them. I haven’t been back since.

    That being said, I think the striped dress looks cute on you. I’m glad this time it was a hit for you!

    Love this dress on you! I want to try eShakti, but I make my own clothes, so…I doubt they can beat me at my own game, haha!
