Ace of Spades

When you think of spades, your mind likely goes to childhood memories playing BS and square. I, however, think of this Ace of Spades tea-length skirt from eShakti.com. The moment I spotted it, I knew it was the one. Surprisingly, I got to personalize it to my body — something I’d never done before.

Knock knock knock . . . the package floated onto my doorstep 16 days later, and I unwrapped the card-inal number. My expectations met reality. Pleats and pleats of thick cotton fabric fell by my sides as I zipped up the skirt. ‘Twas as though it was made for me…

If there were to be a soulmate for this skirt, this top would be it.

I slipped into these white leather shoes — perfect for twirling like a ballerina in.
