Happy Monday, you guys! I know it’s been a little bit of time, but I finally moved to Chicago!!! We made the trek on Wednesday in a two-seater UHaul truck… with three people. Needless to say we had to improvise with my mom and I sitting on top of a stool with pillows as a cushion LOL! Thankfully that’s over and I’m beginning to settle into my apartment and this new city. There’s been a few hiccups with furniture, but nothing is ever perfect and I’m just taking it all in stride and enjoying my time. I start work today and then school in the next few weeks, so I’m excited to share more of this new journey with you all!
Now, onto this cute little number! The team at eShakti reached out to me a while back for a custom order, and when I stumbled upon this dress after browsing their selection, I knew it would be the perfect piece! I mean, who doesn’t love pineapple print?
My favorite part about the experience, however, is that they offer custom orders!! For those of us with curves and a chest, it’s often hard to find pieces that fit perfectly in both areas. It’s also hard for us shorter girls to find pieces that aren’t too long – so when I placed my order, I specifically requested that it be a bit shorter, and the length turned out perfectly! If you’d also like a custom order, all you have to do is pick the piece you like and fill out a form – it takes two minutes and so easy!
There’s still a few weeks left of summer, so you can believe I’ll be wearing all the fun and printed dresses I can get my hands on! However, I am preparing for Fall, and with me starting my new job, this wrap dress is such a great option for work! I’m also totally eyeing this deep-purple shift dress. In fact, I have the exact same silhouette in navy, but I definitely need to add the purple to my collection – so gorgeous for Fall and I’m obsessed!
Thank you to eShakti for collaborating with me on this post!

Thank you very much Abby, you’re so sweet!! And anything pineapple or palm print – count me in!
Such an adorable dress! I have the exact opposite problem.. everything is too short for me! Being able to customize things would be the dream!

Thanks a lot, Victoria! And that’s so funny! The grass is never greener on the other side for anyone LOL! Customizing is definitely a great option for those of us who can’t find a happy medium!
