This morning, while reading one of my favorite blogs, Stephmodo, I saw a link to a new collection by Narciso Rodriguez. I’m not a designer clothes-wearing kind of girl, but I have always liked Rodriguez’s clothes. (First Lady Michelle Obama wears Narciso Rodriguez all the time, and looks fantastic.) Of course, a cute and simple knit black dress caught my attention, and then I realized, I pretty much already have this dress. Check out the comparison:

Cute dress and cute shoes, but this look will set you back $720.00. Yes, that’s right, seven hundred twenty DOLLARS. Crazy.
For that kind of money, you could buy:
an almost identical dress (from Shade Clothing, one of my all-time favorites), cute shoes and accessories for three separate looks, and still have $300 left over. I have this dress and believe it to be the perfect casual-on-the-verge-of-nice (business casual?) little black dress. The scoopneck is just the right amount of scoop, flattering without giving away the farm. It looks more sleek than it feels…it feels like you’re wearing a dress made out of your favorite sweatshirt. I seriously love this dress, and wore an outfit similar to outfit #1 just the other day.
Trust me on this one, you’ll love this dress. And it’s on sale. What more could you want?

I was looking around Etsy this morning and found this shop, and I think this dress and this top are super cute! (along with many more of her items.) You should check it out!
Dress is $45.00
Top is $39.00
Another really cute dress from Target. Looks like it may be on the short side. Geez, I wish they would just post the length!!!
At Target for $24.99!
At Kohls on sale for $41.30, 40 inches long.
Is it just me, or is this dress really cute?
At Kohl’s on sale for $34.99, 40 inches long.
A new, cute, and modest dress from Anthropologie! YAY! And for Anthropologie, it is pretty affordable…
At Anthropologie for $138.00, 39.5 inches long
Let me clarify, no… this is not affordable to me… it is affordable for being an Anthropologie dress…
So the dress on the left is absolutely perfect… I need it. And when I say need it… this time, I mean it! It is a modest version of the Anthropologie dress on the right that was out last summer. (pictured in this post, second outfit down) And I wanted that dress, but not only was it $178.00, it was also sleeveless, so I would have had to buy a cardigan as well. So yes, this dress is $88.00… but that’s like over $100.00 savings compared to the Anthropologie dress. (haha my husband laughs when I consider buying this dress and tell him that I’m really saving money…)
At Shabby Apple for $88.00
Is it just me or does this look like a perfect swimsuit cover up? Yes, I know… it’s pretty covering for the beach, but I get burned so easily, I tend to lean towards being more covered if I’m not in the pool anyways.
At Old Navy on sale for $10.00! 35 inches long
Another pretty dress from Chadwicks! Length for Misses is 23 inches from the natural waist. Also available in Petite and Women’s sizes!
At Chadwicks for $39.99.
This bright orange is so fun, I love it! Length for Misses is 25 1/2 inches from the natural waist.
Find it at Chadwicks for $39.99.
This is such a simple, yet pretty dress! Length for Misses is 24′ from the natural waist. Also available in Petite and Women’s sizes!
Find it at Chadwicks for $39.99.
This dress is perfect for you taller ladies! I love the sleeves.
Find it at Diviine Modestee for $78.00.
Love the neck link and the twist right in the center of the dress, makes for a very slimming waist!
At b&lu for $48.00, 45 inches long.

I’m pretty sure I’m going to be your best friend after this post! eShakti’s tag line is: We design. You customize! They have several already modest dresses like the ones posted above… but they also have sleeveless dresses that you can customize and put sleeves on! Or if you don’t want a cap sleeve but want a full sleeve, you can do that too!!! You can choose your length, sleeves, neckline, and bra size! Talk about amazing! AND their prices are totally affordable, they range from $39.95-$59.95 (not including the customizing). Okay so I can’t take all the credit! Thanks to our reader Lauren for sending me the link to this awesome store! (seriously Lauren… awesome find!) AND if you buy two dresses, you get 30% off on the second, if you buy by Valentines Day! SORRY, JUST ADDED THE LINK!!!
