seasonless nautical stripes eshakti striped dress pewter high heels fall 2017how to use eshakti

wearing: bold blue earrings / Bobbi Brown lipstick “Plum” / nautical stripes dress c/o eShakti / stainless steel watch (sold out, also love this one) / Chloe bag / LondonTown nail polish “Black Thorn” / pewter block high heels (on major sale!!)

Have you ever wondered how to wear nautical stripes in the fall? Or perhaps, during any season? When I first spotted this dress from eShakti, I instantly fell in love! My only concern was that it had nautical stripes! How could I rock this in the fall? Would my accessories play well with it? As soon as I started playing around with my fall accessories, I realized you can wear nautical stripes any time of year! They don’t need espadrilles or boat shoes, this classic look can be paired with fall colors, and fabrications. Love that!

Have you ever shopped at eShakti? I have a few pieces in my closet from eShakti, and I love them! The website is full of different types of styles, to suit any taste. You can hate the neckline, or the length of a dress-and still ending up ordering it! This is due to the fact that you can customize just about everything on a piece you find at eShakti.

I love v-necks, and tend to think they are the most flattering necklines on me; aside from turtlenecks. So when I first spotted this nautical stripes dress, I knew the first thing I would do is change the neckline. I clicked into the dress, and then scrolled down to customize it. I changed the neckline to a v-neck, picked out flattering sleeves, left the length; and voila! I ended up with a really flattering, nautical stripes dress which transcends seasons.

You can customize anything you find on eShakti.com. The necklines, the sleeves, the hemline; you can even customize it for your measurements! This is a godsend for me. I am a petite on the bottom, and regular size on top. This makes dresses too long, or jumpsuits ill-fitting. With eShakti, I can shorten the hem if I need to, or adjust a full piece. Love that!

wearing: antiqued silver statement earrings / lipstick c/o Bobbi Brown “Plum” / light blue scarf / houndstooth coat c/o Sosken Studios / black v-neck tee / boyfriend jeans / Givenchy bag / nail polish c/o Londontown “Black Thorn” / bold antique silver ring / silver booties

The cooler weather is finally starting to arrive! This means we all need a fabulous winter coat! When I shop for my winter coat, I always look for something which is both fabulous and classic. My coat needs to integrate seamlessly into my wardrobe without clashing. Nothing is more frustrating then reaching for a coat on a cold winter day, and it looks horrible with your outfit!

This is what I love about Sosken Studios coats, they are all fabulous, and timeless. Their silhouettes work well with both casual, and dressier ensembles. This is a coat I can reach for anytime I am cold without being concerned as to whether or not it will work with my outfit. It will definitely work with my outfit! Love that!

Sosken Studios makes the most luxurious, fashionable, and comfortable coats I have ever experienced. This coat is soft, easy to move in, and lightweight. It adds so much warmth, without adding any bulk. I don’t have to worry about looking like a balloon while bundled up in this coat. It can be layered without adding thirty pounds to my 5’4″ frame. Love!

This will definitely be my go-to coat this fall/winter season. I can’t wait to bring it to New York with me when I attend fashion week in February. It will be the perfect coat!

Sosken Studios has so many beautiful coats for fall and winter. I am eyeing this faux fur number, this quilted down jacket, and this tailored topcoat. Aren’t they fabulous!

You can find this coat at SoskenStudios.com
