Surprise Haul: Femme Luxe


Yes!!! First clothes review after the longest time. I have been feeling a lot more energetic and has been eager to review some fashion. So this came at a pretty apt time because I am looking for new clothes. I am however into slightly baggier clothes lately, so please don't be too shock if you see less curves. And yes, I am still trying to figure out what is a good size for myself for my new look.

My great haul came from Femme Luxe. They have a great variety of clothes for curvier women, which is great cos I am moving in that direction. I was initially sceptical about the quality but when I ripped open my package I am totally sold! I totally can't wait to show them all to you. 



This piece really caught my eye because of its unique colour. And I liked it had a flap at the side to show some legs. I think I might have been a little too ambitious in the sizing. I wanted it to look oversized so I picked a size bigger but the sleeves are way too long for me. But as a winter wear it would be alright because you would need to pile on layers of clothes inside. If I am wearing it as a lounge wear, I would probably pair a shorts with it, otherwise I think tights would look really good with it. Quite keen to try another piece in another colour at a smaller size.



This is one of my favourite piece in the collection. Generally, I don't look that good in cuffed clothes cos it makes me rounder than I am. But I really wanted a pair of joggers. I bought one previously but the size was so wrong, it became my hub's piece. And he always looked so comfy in them when we are overseas/ in our bedroom (when the aircon is on). I guess I want a couple piece. So I snagged the pink one. I was surprised that the cuff at the legs doesn't even feel restrictive at all. I am really digging this piece and I think I might even wear it when I go to the gym when it reopens!



This was my absolute favourite in the collection. I didn't expect it to turn out so well because it is my first glittery piece. Also, it was tight fitting and wrap the curves snuggly. And you know sometimes the wrong parts get accentuated. I initally intended for this fancy piece for my friend's wedding. Now that the wedding is postponed, I don't have any grand celebration worthy of this dress. A bit bummed that I have no occassion to wear this for now, but I am also relieve I now have a nice piece that can accomodate my curvier body. 



Generally, I avoid pieces that might have a wardrobe malfunction. But I caved in to this piece because it had a cute, retro vibe, so in it went into my cart. I don't thnk I will be wearing as a dress but I will definitely be using this as a top and pair it with either a pair of shorts or tights. The sexy little gap in the chest area is still quite worrying for me so I think I will be wearing a tube inside. #Safetyfirst. I am pretty satisfied with this round's haul. And it is time for more fashion LOTD...woots woots woots.
