On Wednesdays We Wear...+ Contest!

Jacket: Zara, Dress C/O: eShakti, Purse: Coach, Shoes: D&G

We have to enjoy the warm weather while it still lasts! I've heard that this winter is supposed to be especially harsh...so if summer bleeds a little bit into fall....I'm not complaining! Although pink has never been a favorite color of mine, I'm coming to appreciate it more and more when I want to add some "lady" to my wardrobe. I'm loving this Audrey Hepburn-ish Zara coat and my custom made eShakti dress.

If you haven't heard, eShakti is a website with the ultimate level of clothing customization. They offer sizes 0-36W and even an option to put in your own measurements. You are given the choice of sleeve length, pockets vs. no pockets, skirt length, and neckline options. eShakti's clothes are amazingly customizable and actually pretty cute!

I ordered this with my actual measurements and asked that the dress be shortened to above the knee length. I'd say it turned out well. Don't you? It fits better than most of my dresses....from larger retailers. Especially from the likes of J.Crew! 

Contest

Now for the exciting part! eShakti offered to sponsor a giveaway for you guys. I have two $25 dollar gift cards here that I can giveaway. Currently eShakti will give you an additional $25 for registering with their site as a new user and will waive the $7.50 fee on your first custom order. That's $50 dollars off your first purchase and a free customization! I'll be giving one giftcard away here and another on my instagram. 

Unfortunately this is limited only to US and Canadian residents.

Reebonz Blog Contest

When I saw this contest on Xiaxue's blog, I couldn't pass up the opportunity to join. You can look at the details below:

Honestly, when I saw this contest my heart started palpitating, but when I saw the white Tod's bag Reebonz offered as one of the prizes I fell in love entirely. The Tod's D-Styling Small Satchel is absolutely perfect. =) 

The size, color and style are all absolutely timeless and divine. This bag's white color detailed with a neat brown stitch running down the middle and along the handles, makes this purse easy to dress up or dress down. It's the perfect size for a working girl or even a student with space to carry all of her essentials: wallet, lipstick, cell phone, mirror, etc. without squeezing them all into a super small clutch and without the excess material of a tote or hobo. Perfectly lovely!

To enter the contest, I decided to model my "entrance" outfits myself, instead of using polyvore or photoshopping outfits together. If I won the Tod bag, I wanted to wear it with clothes I have and because I know it's timeless enough that I'll be able to pair it with anything I buy later. ;) So without further ado...here are my outfits to match the bag:

This first outfit is a party/date outfit: a simple peach dress that's flirty and fun that can be, like the Tod's purse, dressed up or dressed down. Add a nice dramatic hat for a garden party or wear a shawl for a romantic spring date.

Best Dress, Sofft Shoes

My second outfit is a work outfit. With a nice fitted top and loose Calvin Klein wool gabardine trousers, I mean business. This outfit paired with a nice suit jacket and the Tod's bag I'll definitely get   respect in the workplace. =)

Finally, my third outfit is my fun/play outfit. This skirt and top both have shades of dark chocolate, olive, jade, white, and forest green. I can take this outfit and the Tod's purse out on the town for some spring shopping. I'll definitely have a skip in my step. =) 

Thanks for coming and thanks to Reebonz for this opportunity!

+ Love
