A little while ago I was given the chance to pick & review a garment from eShakti. I blogged about the dress here but will update my review now by letting you know that the dress has been worn on multiple evenings out! It’s soooo comfy , extremely good quality and very flattering on me!
This time I’m back to tell you about eShakti’s new collections AND give you a coupon to use for your very own purchases!

After deciding that I want more tops for my wardrobe, I set out making view C of the 1810. I chose a silky polyester type material… I know…all of my current fabrics are some sort of silky polyester! This pattern appealed to me because it’s the style of top (& dress) that I like to wear – not figure hugging but drawn in at the waist.
