eShakti online fashion giveaway!
THIS GIVEAWAY IS NOW CLOSED. The winner was announced here.
Yup. There’s more. Remember when we were doing the Shabby Apple giveaway, and I felt really bad that there weren’t options for more than like, five sizes, and I did that annoying thing where I apologize a lot? Well, then Melanie, one of the readers of this blog, recommended that I check out eShakti.
eShakti describes itself as “…a unique women’s apparel store online that allows custom changes in the style of the garment – sleeve, neckline, length can all be changed by the customer to her preference.” They offer the full size selection from size 0-26W, as well as custom sizing. You can basically design your own stuff, but a lot of what I saw on the site didn’t look like it needed to be changed.
I wrote to them and asked if they’d do a giveaway with ETDC, and they said yes. Because Cake is delicious 🙂
(it could be yours! I really, really love this one…source)
So here’s the deal.
What you win: ANYTHING under $60 on the site (except stuff in the Overstock section). That’s a lot to choose from. Whatever you choose can then be custom sized and styled (also for free).
How you win it: To be in the running to win, like eShakti’s Facebook page here and then comment under this post. All comments count, unless they say “I DO NOT WANT TO WIN. I HATE WINNING.” You can say, “Hey, what’s up?” you can say, “I love polka dots.” Or just hi.
(my version of polka dots. you could own it! source)
The sad part: You have to have a U.S. or Canadian shipping address.
How long this will run: from today until the 30th. I’ll pick a winner (by using a random number calculator, like last time) on the 31st.
That’s it! I love giving stuff away. It allows me to thank you for reading this blog without getting all gushy. It makes me feel like some kind of mutant girl Jewish blogging Santa Claus. Not my best image ever, maybe, but I’m gonna stick with it for now.

Unroast: Today I love the way I look in browns, grays, and cream. Winter!
P.S. Special thanks to Melanie!!

THere is nothing like a giveaway to spark incentive to finally comment. I love your blog– you always write in such a funny, heart-wrenching, “that is it, exactly!” kind of way. Thank you!

Oh, I love eShakti! I’ve been shopping there since they actually sold salwars and saris. They do custom fit clothing very well, which is great for different body shapes and sizes. ^_^
