diesel skipped, hopped, and jogged all the way home from the park with his arms out, hands in the air, free as a little bird. he's my free spirit.
diesel is wearing a hand-me-down shirt from gap, vintage billy the kid shorts from a garage sale, and moccasins from kaboogie.
remember the other day i mentioned a cool new company called eshakti that allows you to choose from hundredes of dresses and skirts, and then allows you to customize that item specifically to fit your size and style? well here's the dress eshakti generously allowed me to pick out and customize. i requested that the dress hit above my knees and added the wide shoulder straps. it fits perfectly and i just love it!
don't forget to check eshakti out and use this code: LVELYCHS to get 20% off your purchase now through march 20. easter dress perhaps?

another great idea! eShakti is a new online shop that offers lovely fashions for the ladies with the ability to cutomize each item! i was given a lovely dress and was able to customize the length and style of sleeve so that it's perfect for me. (i'll post pics as soon as possible!)
eShakti is giving my readers a special discount of 20% now through March 20 so you can try out this wonderful new shop. use this discount code when you check out: LVELYCHS
here's a little more about the store and what they offer:
"eShakti is 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. We are the only company offering all styles in all sizes: 0-36W & Custom!
eShakti’s custom capabilities allow shoppers to easily tailor any item to their specific requirements ensuring a flattering fit and unique look. Built-in online customization tools allow women to modify original fashions to fit their size, shape and personal style. Unlike traditionally-tailored clothing, eShakti’s incredibly quick turnaround time allows customers to receive their custom-made look within two weeks of ordering!
In addition to the size and style personalization, we are now
presenting, for the first time by any apparel brand - the choice to have
embellishments or not... so one can dress up or down or the way they
like it... personalizing a unique dress or top or skirt that is to one's
style, color, size, embellishment preference. Only at eShakti!
The internet allows us to be extremely customer-centric by enabling
the buying to be inter-active. Shakti means power in Sanskrit. eShakti
therefore means the power of the Net. We believe the internet empowers
customers and helps companies be customer-centered. We ship across the
USA & Canada."

i was recently introduced to lendperk. the adorable star li has created a place where women can borrow dresses they love, wear them for a month, then return them without even having them cleaned! there are several monthly plans to choose from, and the dresses come from stores such as anthropologie, jcrew, asos, bcbg, modcloth, etc.
here's a little more about the site and what they offer:
"We are a "Netflix for Dresses" - rent dresses that you would find in stores like Anthropologie, ASOS, Modcloth, and more.
We have three plans -
1) $20/month - rent 1 dress every month (2 week maximum rental period)
2) $34/month - rent 2 dresses every month
3) $49/month - no limit on how many dresses you can rent
A 9 day free trial is included with every plan for newcomers to test out the service with no financial obligation. You can check out one dress during this rental trial for free! You only pay when you decide to become a member.
We are constantly adding to our collection - more dresses are being added every month in different sizes!"
it seems like a brilliant idea to me! for those who don't like to wear the same thing over and over again AND don't have enough funds to keep replenishing their wardrobe AND are tired of trying to resell really nice items for next to nothing... lendperk is a great option!
let us know if you try it out!

diesel is getting ready to turn two in one month and i'll admit to being a little sad about it. so while i still can, i try to dress him like a baby boy instead of like a toddler boy. it's rather difficult to do! there's just not much available for his size that still looks baby-ish but appropriate.
jay doesn't like it when i dress him like a baby. he wants him to be a man already. but since i dress him, i get to choose! and i think he looks adorable!
