Trying Some Trouser Styles from Femme Luxe
I’ve been shopping at Femme Luxe since last year and I’ve found their site ideal for going out clothing, as well as chill out bits too. They have a whole range of stylish fashionable pieces with a mix of daywear and casual looks to give a whole range of outfit options. Now that Spring is around the corner, I wanted to update my wardrobe with some new trousers that were not only ideal to wear in different styles but were also thinner material than usual, so perfect for the dryer weather we should be getting any time soon. I always find trousers a bit hit and miss though. I have…

Femme Luxe – Back To Black Clothing
Colours can excite our mind in various ways, and how we react to some of them can tell a lot about our personality. Little black dresses have sparkled men’s fantasies for countless decades, while some women find men in black suits simply stunning. But it doesn’t just need to be a colour worn by people who are self-sufficient and confident. In fact, having this colour preference may hint at a sensitive and even vulnerable personality. Black is lazy and easy. Also, The most common monastic colour is black, as a symbolic of repentance and simplicity. I go through fazes in my wardrobe. Sometimes the colour can just pop all over the…

OSMO Hair Care Range
They say that the hair is an extension of your personality and I think this is so true. I mean, when I’m having a fun month, I’ll tint my hair pink. But then in winter, I’ll go a shade darker, and in the summer, I like to go light. I have been blonde my whole life though. Starting out natural – I have a dull blonde natural colour – but then going lighter as I got older as my ashy locks left me feeling a little boring. At the moment, my hair is really light blonde in a balayage style and is hard to maintain. Going lighter blonde means trying…

Dressing Down The style With Femme Luxe
Some days you just want to wear clothes that are a little dressed down, but still stylish. I mean, I love a good pair of jeans if I can pair it with a nice tee, so I thought I’d talk about a couple of items that can be dressed down this week. Obviously, I had to go for a t-shirt first, and I picked out the Black Heart Lip Print Tee as I loved the pattern on it. This simple tee with a sassy heart lip graphic print is perfect for a simple day out and can work with any outfit. And that’s what I’m here to show off, how you can…

Femme Luxe Clothing Haul Review
A few months ago I wrote my first post about my Femme Luxe clothing haul and how I had loved some of the pieces from them. It’s not often I get to focus solely on myself when it comes to clothing, and so when I do, I like to pick out pieces that I wouldn’t usually buy, to see how they fit, and how they look on me. I’m not usually one for dresses but nevertheless, I decided to order 3 dresses and a skirt that is not my usual style just to see if I could come out of my comfort zone a little bit more. And because I really do…

My Femme Luxe Fashion Haul
Buying clothes for myself is usually something that is last on the agenda. I’m usually a mum-clothes type and opt for leggings and a long top, or gym gear, most days. When Femme Luxe got in touch with me and asked if I’d like to update my wardrobe with some pieces from their collection, it seemed like a great time to pick out some new threads to wear this year. Describing themselves as a ‘current, classy and forward thinking online fashion brand‘, Femme Luxe produce clothing that can be worn for a night out, day wear and on special occasions, as well as just for relaxing in whilst at home. …

My 5 Minute Make Up Routine
As a busy parent, I sometimes don’t have time to brush my hair let alone put on a full face of make up. I used to have good intentions, getting up five or ten minutes earlier each morning and mastering the art of the subtle contour, or drawing the perfect cat-eye, or at least putting on some damn concealer, but I realised that I’d rather have those extra 5 minutes in bed. So I came up with my own 5 minute routine, to give myself a nice day look that is quick and easy to apply, without taking up too much of my time. Here is how it goes… I…

Pour Moi | My Favourite DD+ Swimwear Brand
Few of us can claim to actually enjoy bikini shopping. The stress of buying for a DD+ bust is even worse, as it’s not just a case of scrolling the net and picking one in a pretty colour, you have to look at support, coverage, hold, and whether you actually like the look, once all that is added in. For us bigger busted ladies, flimsy triangles and bits of string do little to support, or hold in, the bust, and ones that come in dress sizes can just go straight out the window as they do not translate to bust size at all. Don’t even get me started on those…
