eShakti Sweetheart Style Bird Print Dress

When eShakti, a customized clothing retailer, approached me about their product, I felt that they secretly knew my frustration with finding clothes that fit correctly. eShakti follows a philosophy of real fashion for real women, by allowing each item to be customized to a person's specific measurements and preferences (such as neckline, sleeve style, and dress length). This attention to detail and wide selection of products is what initially drew me to their website. 

I had difficulty choosing just one piece, but I fell in love with this sweetheart style bird print dress. I decided to keep most of the specifications the same as the sample dress when I placed my order, but I did use the custom tailoring to match my sizing. I also chose to have the length of the dress fall at my knees. 

I love this dress for a variety of reasons. First, is the vibrant orange and pink pattern which is what caught my eye on the website. It seemed perfect to wear for summer, and in person, the cotton and silk material keeps the dress light and flowy. I also love the vintage flare of the dress, and the custom matching belt that it comes with. Besides being customized to fit me, each piece on eShakti's website is unique for every kind of woman and would fit with anyone's personal style.

Secondly, when you receive the product, you notice that it is beautifully made (you can see the stitching and they did an amazing job matching up the pattern!)

You can purchase this dress off of the eShakti website by clicking here! It is also on sale right now!

Since the dress is so vibrant, I wore subtle nude heels from Clarks. 

I then added a bit of contrast by wearing this cross-body bag in a robins egg blue.

And I topped the look off by wearing vintage earrings.

The eShakti experience is really amazing, and unique of its kind. They have great customer service, and a high quality product. I would definitely recommend ordering a custom dress from their website, but make sure to give yourself at least 3 weeks before you need it due to time for modifications and shipping.

And the best part is that right now you can get 10% off all of eShakti's full price items by using the exclusive coupon code 'chelseasglossary' at check out! This code is valid from 4/1/2015 thru 5/1/2015, so stock up on your dresses for summer!

Favorites from Lilly Pulitzer + Target Collaboration

The Lilly + Target collaboration look book came out yesterday on Target's website, and it definitely exceeds my expectations! Colorful prints, metallics, kitschy and chic pineapple and sea creature embellishments, and lots of tassels. There was some controversy when Lilly for Target was first announced, but I have always been a fan of Target's creative direction when working with iconic designers. The official collection is in stores and online April 19th, but here are some of my favorites from their preview.

Floral Chiffon and Tassels

It is still cold, but at least the sunshine is making days outside more enjoyable.

This weekend I broke out some of my new spring clothing. One of my favorite items that I am wearing is this chiffon floral shirt from H&M. 

I love this shirt because the pattern has a 60's vintage flare, and it has some bright and fun spring colors. Plus it was only $10! This shirt adds a little bit of a boho look to my wardrobe. 

I have also being having a major obsession with tassels. This gold tassel necklace is simple and classic, with beads in a neutral grey (which blend into my shirt). I love how versatile this necklace is, and it was under $25 at TJ Maxx. 

To stay warm, I wore my green surplus jacket from American Eagle, and I cuffed my favorite jeans from The Gap. 

I have also been having a major obsession with oversized hats. They are typically out of my comfort zone, but I found this vintage oversized fedora and I knew that this would be a fun piece to include in my wardrobe. I am still experimenting on how to style it, but I think it goes well with some bohemian inspired looks that I am looking forward to wearing.

You can never go wrong with wearing a nude flat, and this pair is from Target. 

I am also breaking out my Kate Spade shoulder bag for the season!

I have decided that you can never have too many colorful bracelets. My anchor and rope is from Kiel James Patrick, the pyramid gold is from Aeropostale, and the two beaded bracelets are from Aid Through Trade. I wanted to pick up the colors in my shirt through my wrist accessories, and couldn't limit myself to just one!

I hope you are enjoying some sunny days! What are your favorites in your spring wardrobe?

Anchor & Cable Sweater with Chambray

It has been a crazy week catching up with school after spring break, which is why I haven't had a chance to post in awhile. 

 

This in-between cold and hot weather has made getting dressed confusing. Currently my closet has all of my winter jackets in preparation for a snow storm, and spring clothing incase it gets to 65 degrees. 

I typically wear a lot of layers when the weather doesn't want to commit to being cold or hot. This army green surplus jacket has been great to wear for this because it keeps you warm, but is still light and neutral enough for spring time.

This jacket is from Target, and also has a removable fur collar. 

I purchased this cable sweater with anchors because the color and pattern was fitting for spring, while still being warm enough for these transitional colder days. 

I was surprised when I found this sweater while passing through Talbots. I typically never go there, but when I was with my mom on spring break, we stopped in and I noticed they had a few really cute things. This sweater just happened to be on sale, and you can get your own by clicking here!

I added a little sparkle to the boatneck of my sweater by wearing a chambray button-up with beaded detailing on the collar. This shirt is from Hollister, and has been extremely versatile in my wardrobe. 

For accessories, I wore these two pyramid bracelets. The red bangle is from Target, and the gold one is from Aeropostale.

You can never go wrong with a classic brown boot, and these are from Clarks.

Hopefully it begins to get warmer and I can rely on not needing a coat when I leave the house!

Varsity Sweater for Spring Weather

Happy Monday!

Even though there is snow on the ground, it is supposed to go up to 50° this week.

This varsity sweater is one of my favorite purchases that I recently bought from The Limited during their sweater sale (which you can still get for 30% off the sale price). I love the classic and preppy v-neck, and the navy and red contrast.

I have been interested in varsity sweaters for awhile, but have been hesitant because of the low-cut neckline (and because I already own quite a few sweaters). After I tried it on, I thought the v-neck was alluring without being over the top, making it easy to dress up for going out on a colder night.

Since this is such a dramatic neckline, I wore daintier jewelry. This silver ship necklace was actually a flea market find. 

This Notre Dame cable knit hat has been my go to this winter. In the spirit of St. Patrick's day, I feel that I can continue to wear it through March.

Since there still is snow on the ground, I am wearing my Hunter Boots. 

 I wore my pearl and silver bracelets as finishing touches. My infinity bracelet is a friendship bracelet from an Etsy shop. My friend Sam got them made for our friend group so that each of us has each others initials attached to it

I am also wearing my pineapple Alex + Ani bracelet.

I hope you are enjoying some warmer weather. I am going to try and spend some time outside during my spring break, and enjoy being with my family.
