amazingly cute dresses

I was sorting through my bookmarks today, and came across this site I had favorited over a year ago and totally forgotten about! eShakti has an amazing selection of adorable dresses -- I've picked my six favorites (which is hard to do when they have dozens worthy of inclusion in my top six!) but I highly suggest checking the site out for yourself, you might just find the most perfect dress in the universe (it does exist, and it is probably on this website.)

perfect staple dress

This is my idea of the perfect staple dress. It has the most adorable sweetheart neckline, and a figure flattering shape that emphasizes your waist and helps hide your hips. (At least, this is flattering for me..)

And it's incredibly versatile. Worn alone with some pearls, an updo and a little clutch this would be an amazing dress to wear for a night out. But add a cardigan, slouchy tote and flats and it works perfectly for casual wear too! And for $26, how can you pass it up?!

It's available in dark purple, dark green and black on Charlotte Russe's newly re-designed and finally easy-to-peruse website. They're currently having a buy-one-get-one-free sale on dresses, but unfortunately this beauty isn't included :(

Need. Now.

Vintage evening gown on Etsy!

If it were not the price of my yearly earnings (well ALMOST! ;-D), I would totally be buying this dress right now!

Masquerade Ball Gown in Black and White

From DarkPonyDesigns on Etsy {$175}

I am MORE than slightly in love with this dress. In fact, I WANT it VERY much. It even comes with the necklace. AGHHHKKK! I must resist it!

come hither dress

This dress is seriously making me wish I had some kind of huge art opening or fancy cocktail party to attend so I could justify shelling out $87.99 to make this gorgeous frock mine, all mine.

Trixie

I want this dress so much, it's painful, but it is out of my price range. :( It's absolutely resplendent in its 1920s-1930s charms though! Can't you just picture it with a matching cloche and a big, funky brooch?

Trixie by reVamp Vintage ~ $175.00

Possibly the finest dress I've ever seen...

Posh Girl Vintage

I MIGHT* be able to live without this dress...

Kellie Eyelet Dress from dELiAs ($44.50)

*MIGHT. But, I'm just not sure. It's just too amazing. And too springy. And too yellowy. And just too spiffy!

A couple of things I really want to steal, er, um, BUY!

Herringbone Tweed Jacket from Charlotte Russe ($38.39)

Trista Stripe Dress from dELiAs ($44.50)

Of course BOTH are too much for me to afford, but I still WANT them...hmm, now here is where I would put my plans to break into the warehouses. But, of course I am an honest, law-abiding citizen and would never even THINK to do that!

...I'll just continue to pine after them FOREVER!

Good news and bad news

Good news: I found the most perfect dress EVER on Modcloth today- it is a combination of some of my favorite colors, has an incredibly flattering cut & lovely mod design.

Bad news: It's $199. I wouldn't even pay that much for a new television, let alone a dress! eek! Unless it's made by fairies with fabric woven from moonbeams, no dress should cost more than a months' worth of groceries! Not even one as perfect as this!!

Of course, if you have $199 to spare (I hate you.) - it's available at Modcloth here.

I need these.
