Trial By Sapphire

Those who know me well know that I do not go out on New Year's Eve.  It has always been celebrated with family game night instead.  There is nothing like ringing in the new year in the comfort of home with those I love the most.  However, if I were to go out, I would want to wear this dress to some swanky party:

Wood Blosson Brocade Dress c/o eShakti

I am in love with this dress!  We saw the touring company of Shen Yun over the weekend, and it was the perfect opportunity to get gussied up for the theatre.

The nice people at eShakti sent this dress to me, and believe me when I say that I will be shopping there for unique, custom-made clothing from now on.  No matter your shape, size, or height, they will create a beautiful piece of clothing for you!

The embroidery and beading on this dress are stunning. Those are my late grandmother's pearls which I wore as a wrap bracelet on my wedding day.

eShakti provides customization for all women at a modest cost.  Their unique business concept allows you to order by the standard sizes listed (0-36W or XS-6X) or by the measurements you provide.  

Not only can pieces be made according to your measurements, their website has a simple 3-step design & fit page where you can increase the size of a bust, shorten the length of a skirt, and modify sleeves or a neckline!  I'm going to order something with puffed sleeves just because I can.  ;)

Mr. TBS is not one to compliment clothing, but this dress?  He loves it.  He loves it so much that he even touched it, because it looks so stunning in person.  We both agreed that eShakti is high quality.  I felt like I stepped out of a 1940s gala.  This dress is oozing with vintage charm.  Though I'm a casual girl through and through, this dress made me feel so special.




So that's my New Year's Eve dress... that I wore over the weekend.  Have a safe and fun time tonight, friends!

Bundle up tonight.  It's cold out there!
