Holiday Season Ready

by Daisy Rosales | Oct 27, 2014 | Wardrobe | 117 comments

[Sponsored Post] I can’t tell you how much the onset of the holiday season excites me. My favorite holiday is Thanksgiving, so there’s no doubt that I’ve already begun testing out recipes. Only the best will be served on the big day!

I know it feels a bit early to start talking about dressing for the holidays. But once mid-November rolls around, there’s usually a ton to do. In fact, I’ll have very little time to think about what I’ll actually wear to the gatherings and events that come with the holiday season, which shortly follows Thanksgiving.

Thankfully, I’ve got a dress already. Furthermore, I was able to customize this dress to my tastes and make sure it fit me perfectly. Because eShakti, a women’s clothing business, specializes in beautiful customized designs, it’s incredibly easy to make sure each piece you buy is already perfect for you.

Why do I love eShakti? Because they understand that everyone is built differently. When you order a dress from eShakti, you can customize any number of things including sleeve length, dress length, and proportions. You can even submit your measurements to the site! So rather than producing cookie-cutter shapes and designs that you then have to alter yourself, eShakti does it for you. So all you have to do is customize and enjoy!

Ready to check out eShakti? They’re giving readers of Simplicity Relished (that’s YOU!) a special discount of 10% off for almost a whole month! That’s plenty of time to find your perfect holiday dress. Use the promo code simplicityrelished for your discount, valid for full-priced items until 11/24/2014!

Other ways to connect with eShakti: Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest. [This was a sponsored post. The dress pictured here was provided for my review.]

Have you started shopping for the holiday season yet? What are your go-to pieces? I’d love to know!

Oh my goodness NO– really?! Another polar vortex?! That is not good news…
Lauren C. on October 29, 2014 at 1:47 pm

It was actually 75 degrees yesterday, so I’m starting to doubt that winter will ever come! (Just kidding… apparently the Farmer’s Almanac is predicting “Polar Vortex: The Sequel” this winter.) I have family in Pasadena though, and they’ve been hoping for cooler weather for a while.
Daisy @ Simplicity Relished on October 29, 2014 at 11:06 am

Thank you so much Lauren!! Yeah, and here in LA it almost feels like winter isn’t coming at all 🙁 But I know it will get cold out where you are!!
Lauren C. on October 29, 2014 at 8:34 am

That is a gorgeous dress! I love the color and the embroidery. I haven’t started shopping for the winter season just yet… I will probably get some long sleeve tops, and maybe a new sweater and skirt/dress. Just a few simple edits to my existing wardrobe. 🙂
Daisy @ Simplicity Relished on October 28, 2014 at 10:41 pm

Thank you SO much Amanda!! You are so sweet 🙂 Let me know if you do find something there that you like!!
Amanda C on October 28, 2014 at 6:47 pm

The detailing is just perfect! I’ve heard of eShakti before but have never shopped with them. Now that I know they can customize the fitting of the dress for you, I will definitely be looking into buying from them!

Gorgeous color on you, btw!

Thanks girl! Yeah– the cool thing about this dress in particular was that I could decide how long I wanted the sleeves to be. If I were still in New England (instead of CA), then I would have sprung for long sleeves!! I never understood how girls could go out in tiny cocktail dresses when it was below freezing!

That dress fits you great! I love the sleeve length too. I find it annoying when dresses available in the fall are sleeveless. Winters in Chicago were cold!

This dress is so pretty! I love the colors. And I’m SERIOUSLY being drawn towards eShakti more & more! I love Holiday dresses, and I do feel like I start early…. It’s the only time of year I feel like I can get away with sequin everything. I love looking like a disco ball. Haha
