{This is a paid collaboration with Femme Luxe}
As we're all spending so much time at home right now, loungewear is definitely the order of the day. My teenage girls have been spending their days in fluffy pyjamas and tracksuits, so when Femme Luxe got in touch and asked if I'd like to collaborate again, the girls were over the moon. Last year they had some great T-shirts from them and they are wearing and washing really well.
I have to admit that as a larger lady it's not a site I've ever had a look at, their clothes are definitely for the smaller and more trendy lady. Some items go up to a 16 but many just seem to go up to a size 14 and it is one of my pet peeves when clothing manufacturers call a size 12/14 an XL. You can't possibly call a size woman extra-large, but I'll save my rant for another day as this post is about the clothes the girls have received and they do actually really like those.
Trendy Loungewear
Miss E went for a classic black tracksuit, or loungewear in modern speak. This one is the Susan design with an oversized fleece front-pocket drawstring hoodie and matching cuffed joggers. It is currently on sale for £23.99, which is very good value for a two-piece set and I see there is a 10% site-wide discount right now, taking it down to £21.59.
It seems well made and checking the cuffs and the seams etc, they are all well-done. The material is very comfortable and feels nice and fleecy inside. Miss E went for the XL size, which is a 12/14 and we think is true to size, as she wears a 12 in most other clothes. At 5ft 7" she is fairly tall and was really pleased these cuffed joggers are a good length.
