An Eshakti Christmas - Part 1

Hello and a late Merry Christmas to everyone. I hope you all had a wonderful day. It was a landmark one for me; I cooked christmas dinner for the first time in my life! I thought it would be super stressful, but I channeled my inner Nigella and planned ahead and delegated some of the work and it all came together. It was a little tiring though, I ended up falling asleep on the floor by the christmas tree afterwards!

Today I'm going to feature the woman who taught me how to cook a roast dinner in the first place; Ann Price, my beautiful mother. I know we don't look alike, I take after the women on my dad's side more than anyone else, but we're very close and we make each other laugh a lot. For our christmas presents we each chose a dress from eShakti this year.


My dress is, in my opinion, the perfect new year's eve dress - but I'll write about it next time. For today though, I'm going to share my mum's review of her eshakti dress.



My mum chose the Surplice front shirt-dress in charcoal. I think it looks really cute on her and is one of those dresses she can dress up or down for lots of different occasions. I also love that the cute bow belt is detachable so she can wear it with other outfits.


Here's what she had to say about it:
"The material of the dress is heavier than I expected but it is very well made and I love the style of it. The neckline plunged a bit low for my liking so I had to pin it at the collar because I don't like to show so much cleavage. I'm looking forward to wearing this to all sorts of places; it's very versatile, I love the bow and I think I will be very comfortable in it. They should come out with a dress in the summer that is like this but in a crisp cotton and a 50s retro print!"


Isn't she fabulous?

My parents are heading home today so it's going to be awfully quiet in our little apartment. I'll miss them a lot but I'll see them again soon! Safe travels to you if you're also traveling back from christmas visits.
