Heading into Summer with more Femme Luxe

Hey guys! Apologies for the long delay in posting again. If you follow me on Twitter you may have seen that I’ve had a lot of family things to sort out and help with and such. Nothing bad, but just very time consuming! I’m back today though with another Femme Luxe post which is a fashion based post such as my previous two for the company.

In my previous two Femme Luxe posts I wrote about matching makeup looks to go with the outfits, but thanks to the glorious weather we had last week here in the UK when these photos were taken I wasn’t able to get out to use some nice locations because of the horrible and constant rain.

So unlike my previous Femme Luxe posts I haven’t done matching makeup looks for the same reason as why I haven’t been able to use a variety of locations, but I’m still going to have a chat about what makeup I used at the end. I have used a couple of new lipsticks that I recently acquired so I’ll have a chat about those, but one of them will be featuring in its own post so definitely have a read on for a sneak peek!

If you don’t know about Femme Luxe, they are an online fashion brand based in the UK that designs clothes for women.

They have lots of different styles to suit different people’s fashion tastes so you can usually find something that takes your fancy. For this post, the 4 products that I chose are a button-down denim dress, a snake print loungewear set, an oversized jumper shirt dress and paper bag waist houndstooth print trousers. Each have very different vibes and I thought they would be a nice variety to share with you all today!

Let's jump into the clothes!

My first choice is one that I've had my eye on for quite a while; an oversized, black jumper shirt dress.

I’m just gonna start off my saying that I loooove this jumper. Honestly, it’s just so comfy and even my niece tried to steal it (she got out of the house with it but has now been returned to me. Cheeky sausage). Because of the length it can be worn as a dress or a jumper. I will be wearing it as a jumper primarily with leggings or ripped black jeans and trainers a lot, but for the photos I decided to wear it as a dress, which I will likely do at home when I wear it.

This is one of those jumpers you can wear out for shopping or to lounge in at home, and therefore it’s perfect for me. It’s not too thick either so it’s good for a light cover up during summer but would probably need a T-shirt underneath if you want to wear it in the winter.

If you like the print but not as a sweater, Femme Luxe have also got this one available as a T-shirt too.

I'm wearing the size M (8/10).

For this photo and for the denim dress (coming up below) I’m wearing the brand new Avon mark. Epic Lip Powder Pen Lipstick. I’m planning on writing up a post for this new release so keep your eyes peeled for that! It also means that I’m not going to say too much here as to not ruin the future post but at least you have a sneak peek.

Femme Luxe Snake Short Sleeve Boxy Loungewear Set

Next up I went for another cosy loungewear set in the print of my favourite animal, snake print. 

For this loungewear set I do prefer each of the items separately, which is how I will mostly be wearing them. I think that the trousers will look nice with a black or a white vest top for example, and the T-shirt with some jeans or shorts.

The material feels kind of silky, but it also means that they’re nice and comfortable to wear at home. 

I’m very short and the trousers come to just under my ankles, but they are designed to be ankle length. They sit alright in the photo here because I'm sitting down, but when standing they are a little longer than they should be unless I pull them up higher. And yes, I do know they would look better without the socks but let's just say that I didn't realise I'd left them on for the photos until editing them.

I chose the size S/M (8/10)

In this photo and the next photos of the trousers I'm wearing the Lipstick Queen Nothing but the Nudes lipstick in the shade Sweet as Honey. This lipstick along with the shade Blooming Blush is currently the Latest in Beauty beauty pick of the month so if you want to try it along with a collection of other beauty products in your own customised beauty box then I highly recommend heading over to grab one before they disappear at the end of the month!


Femme Luxe Houndstooth Paper Bag Slim Fit Trousers

For my next choice I went for these beautiful slim fit houndstooth trousers. They're designed to be a paper bag waist but they didn't sit that way on me sadly. Also, it's definitely worth noting again about my height here as if you are of an average height or taller then these trousers won't be as low down around your ankles as they are on myself!

If you are petite like me though then you can also get away with rolling these up, but I didn't for the photos so you can see a proper representation.

These trousers are definitely one of my favourite products from Femme Luxe to date. They’re perfect for casual or smart wear depending on what you team them up with so they’re a great addition to your wardrobe as they’re actually rather versatile. On top of that, they're super comfortable to wear. They're lightweight and cosy, perfect for whatever you choose to wear them for. 

Size of these is a 10.

For my final choice I went for a button down denim dress. 

This denim dress will look fab over lots of different jumpers or T-shirt’s. Obvious one would be a plain, long-sleeved black or top, maybe with a polo neck. It would also look great over a plain T-shirt, or maybe a long-sleeved, ribbed yellow top. I decided to go with a bright orange polo necked T-shirt and I love the cheerful and slightly retro vibe from it.

The dress is a little heavy, as you’d expect from a denim dress, so whilst it’s great for summer it may not be as good for the hottest days where you’re likely to be sweating. Otherwise it's incredibly comfortable and the material is very soft. I'm hoping to get a lot of wear out of this one now that the rain is beginning to subside again... touch wood.

I'm wearing a size 10.

And there we have it!

It’s hard to say which is my favourite item from this bunch as I know I love them all for different reasons. Once again though, I’m impressed by the quality of the items I have received from Femme Luxe. I love the wide range of products that are available too. I don’t think any one person will love absolutely everything available as they have so many things to suit different styles. Therefore I’d say it’s worth going through the whole website to pick out what could be your new favourite pieces. 

If you want to get your hands on any of them or to check out what else is available, head on over to Femme Luxe now.
