The Perfect Fit Mid-Length Skirt- eShakti Review

I think we’ve all been in the situation where you find something you love, then you try it on and you can’t find a size that works for you.  It’s either too big, too long, too short or too tight.  If you really love it, you could buy it and pay for alterations, but who wants to go through all the hassle of finding a tailor and then waiting weeks before you can wear it?  When I found out that there was a website called eShakti where you could order clothes at an affordable price and they could be sized to fit your body type, I was excited.

I don’t share my husband much on here, but this I don’t share my husband much on here, but this trend felt like a fun way to look back at our story! I had to dig deep on Facebook for some of these photos! 💕

He was the one who told me that shopping wasn’t a hobby and I needed to find a free hobby to keep me busy when we were first married. 😅 So I started a blog about living life to the fullest and dressing my best on a super tight budget.

Little did we know that “free hobby” would not only one day turn into my job, but it would also be a way to fund my shopping habit. Even helping me become a smarter shopper along the way! 😉

Fun fact: The name “Thrifty Wife, Happy Life” came from him. When making big decisions, Kevin always said “happy wife happy life”. So when I was brainstorming a name for my blog that popped into my head and I decided to do a little play on words. The original name I was going to pick was “Katie’s Closet”. I’m glad I went with the name I did!
