I can't justify shopping for "out" clothes in this lockdown because the logic doesn't make sense. I am probably looking at putting on a few quarantine pounds in the next few weeks, so anything pretty or especially tight for summer days/nights outside probably isn't going to fit.
I was yet to upgrade my wardrobe with new loungewear especially for this work from home season, so when FemmeLuxeFinery gifted me a few pieces from their LoungeWear Set Collection, it was a dream come true.
I have bought from Femme before, sticking to their "dress up" pieces so was intrigued to see if I'd like their "for the chill only'' options.
Black "No Bad Vibes" Oversized T-shirt - Hannah (Size 10-12)

I got this in a 10/12 and it ended up fitting like a standard tee, rather than oversized, which makes me think that their sizing might run slightly differently on different pieces.
To resolve this, I just added a front knot which makes a great staple to throw on underneath layers in winter, but a great statement for summer wear. Even though this is in the loungewear collection, I am definitely more likely to be wearing it outside.
I wasn't expecting the quality to be too good, but it ended up having a really soft slightly stretchy cotton, with a little weight to it as well!
The slogan is so fitting for the current climate - they have so many other inspirational quote T-shirts on their site to choose from, mainly in black and white.
Dusty Pink High neck cropped Loungewear Set - Ella (Size 8/10)
I don't usually go for cropped but crop levels vary from store to store so I wanted to take a chance with this set. The crop on this is standard ribcage fit, so I realised it's me, not the crop, so won't be leaving the house in it.
The pink colour is very attractive without being too in your face "girly" (they have tons more of this pink colour across the loungewear collection) and the material is some kind of heavy wool blend. I was sweating within a few minutes of wearing this, so I'd recommend it for the colder lockdown days or to save it for the cripsier Autumn months ahead.
On first impressions/ try on, this set just didn't fit me very well. I didn't (and still don't) like the roll neck top, it seemed too long and I ended up stuffing most of it inside the top.
The elasticated leggings waist band keep twisting and bulking on my waist which might mean that they too small as they keep giving me the awkward front V.
But looking back on pictures, it doesn't seem to bad and made me look quite photogenic.
Khaki Ribbed belted Loungewear Set - Asia (Size 8-10)
This set is definitely my favourite out of the three and was also my most wanted piece.
*Secret* - I had actually added this to my Wishlist tab on Chrome before receiving it from Femme, but it kept selling out - God must love me loads at this time because I now have it in my collection. When Femme sent me the pieces, I was beyond happy to finally get my hands on it.
If you don't know where to start in your pending loungewear collection, this is it. The colour. The style. The material (great stretch, perfect for those binge "are you still watching" Netflix marathons with lots of pizza and rosé!) The fit.
I have no negatives for this set and am likely to pick up the Beige version in the near future.
I think this khaki green looks great on every skintone so again, is a great safe colour when you start building your collection (other khaki styles can be found here).
I just hope the material keeps and doesn't go fuzzy after a couple washes, because I will be wearing this ALOT!
I've loved trying these pieces from Femme, felt so good to lounge in style!
Thank you to FemmeLuxeFinery for the pieces!
