Boxing Day – eShaki

You are probably wondering why I’m still talking Boxing Day. Sorry. This is the last post in which I share my Boxing Day scores, I swear.

I’ve shown a few items in wish lists from eShakti but have yet to share my actual purchases. I actually do have several winter staples in heavy rotation already. I’m partial to their cotton jersey knit pieces for warmth and comfort and chic asymmetrical cuts.

I grabbed up this knitted cotton hoodie dress during their Boxing Day sale. Even at it’s regular $49.95 price it’s a great pick but 30% off made it an obvious steal. I plan to style it more as a tunic with my wide variety of leggings…. short hemlines feel a lot more scary at 40 than they did at 30. Who knew.

My second purchase is beyond adorable.

Hemline is a little longer and I feel like this will become a year round piece with leggings in the winter but bare legs come summer! Check it out here.

eShakti is pro at whimsical embellishments. They also have such a varied stock and come in a full size range that I legit challenge you to try and not find something you love. They add new styles daily so…. well I’ve already found like 5 more things I need immediately.

Why do I torment myself?

Anyways, here I am. Feeling extra cute in the new bird dress, about to enjoy a smoothie at our favourite local cafe, The Vic Cafe.

So what’s on your eShakti wish list? Or better yet, what’s in your cart??

Empty Suitcase

I have to travel for work in a little less than a month. A week away seems a bit daunting especially when I look at my suitcase and think… what do I pack?! There will be casual work days, nice dinners and even evenings out and of course I want to look great and feel comfortable in whatever I choose. Plus it all has to fit in my suitcase.

Because I am obsessed with eShakti‘s knit wears, I’ll obviously be bringing along one of my dresses. They pack well, require no ironing and are SO COMFY! This one will likely be the winner…

You need at least one pair of fantastic jeans when you work for a young, hip and casual company. I’m thinking of trying out Charlotte Russe for jeans as they currently have a promotion; Buy 1 Get 1 for $12.50! These ones have caught my eye:

I’ve already got some great tops but I’ve completely fallen in love with Eloquii lately and I think I’m looking for an excuse to buy these…

So what’s left? Night out for dinner or drinking! The most fun of outfits but something I’m sorely lacking. Maybe this is my chance to fulfill one of my Style Resolutions with… a jumper?

The ASOS Curve jumpsuit with rose gold hair might be hip enough for a night on the town! Now the only problem is, with all these fabulous clothes I’ll need a second suitcase for shoes…

Cowl be there

You should probably get used to me sharing my love of eShakti here as my love knows no bounds. Consider downloading the app and signing up for all the amazing discounts because when you check out all they have to offer you are going to start your own affair with them! During their Boxing Day sale I snagged myself a seriously heavy shopping cart with even heavier discounts.

There is a new line of products featuring heavy cotton knits, asymmetrical patterns and some fabulous cowl necks!

Feeling like I might be cold forever in this grey winter, I snagged a bunch of these heavy knits thinking they would keep me fashionable while warm.

I bought the Cowl Neck Top in both black and navy. It is so easy to dress up or just get cozy in. I often pair it with legging for working from home but love it with jeans when heading out.

I paired the black top with my favourite Forever21+ high waisted jeggings and a pair of boots I picked up from their clearance section for under $20. With knee-high socks from Urban Outfitters, presto, perfect outfit for shopping with my GirlGang!

Did I mention this top has pockets?!

It’s also perfect with leggings due to it’s almost tunic length. Here I’ve paired it with my tattoo leggings from Torrid to channel my inner rockstar.

These awesome fake suede red booties were purchased from the  shoeme.ca outlet!
