bohemian summer

{What I Wore: maxi dress c/o eShakti {now on sale for under $40} // Steve Madden bow flats // boutique heart necklace }
When I saw the braided back and detailed embroidery on this breezy maxi dress, I knew that it was meant to be hanging in my closet!
{Other adorable eShakti maxi dresses herehere & here}

Please excuse the wrinkles on this gorgeous dress... I got so super excited to see this package from eShakti on my front steps that I couldn't wait to throw the dress on and head out for a summer evening with friends... easy maxi dress and girlie flats, done and done!
The dress certainly doesn't disappoint in person... so gorgeous (but seriously, stop staring at my wrinkles!)
Have you heard of eShakti? With a mission statement that reads: 
"To make you look and feel fabulous by giving you uniquely classic styles in a wide variety of fabrics and color choices in sizes from 0-26W AND customized sizes & styles too" you know that it is a site you NEED to check out!

You read that right, eShakti offers something that is very much absent from boutique fashion: customizable clothing! Petite and want a maxi dress that doesn't get caught under your feet when you walk up stairs? 
(what, that hasn't ever happened to you... awkward...)
eShakti is the place for you... in fact if you have the opposite problem of being statuesque, you too can order clothes to rock on your mile long legs 
(can you tell that I dream of being tall!?)
Today I am linking up with Long Distance Loving's Friday's Fancies for her "Euro Trip" linky fest.
Plop me in any European country right this second, and I would love to sightsee in this breezy dress (complete with pockets for my lipgloss and money!)
Need something to sweeten the deal before you get to shopping? 
eShakti offers first time shoppers $20 off their first purchase
AND they have created a special promo code (MY26ZCA) for Here&Now Readers to get 10% eShakti off orders (valid until July 31st, can be used in addition to their existing up to 40% off sale, but not Overstock items) 
BAM - you're welcome!

  1. Gorgeous dress!! It would be absolutely perfect for strolling around Europe. I'm pretty tall, but somehow maxi dresses are either too long or too short for me haha.

  2. LOVE this dress on you! The back detail is so cute plus it has pockets... win and win!  And yes, that happens to me all the time, maxi dresses being too long for my short body. Have a great weekend! :)
