I\u2019ve been feeling pretty dotty lately, and not just from my newfound love of polka dots but also from a mystery illness I returned home from my holiday with! After 3 weeks of pain from temporary arthritis from a mystery virus, likely from a dreaded mossie, I am on my last day of steroids and I am finally feeling like myself again!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

You know when you haven\u2019t been feeling well and you just don\u2019t seem yourself anymore, that\u2019s been me over these last few weeks, I have had very little motivation and after a day at work, even the meaningless task of doing the washing up was becoming too much of a chore, but after having yet again another restful weekend, I finally feel like I am getting some spirit back.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My plans for this fine Sunday evening, are definitely going to be a pamper night, I am feeling like I want a nice relaxing bath filled with lavender and a chapter or two of the secret.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking of pamper nights I have just ordered the Look Fantastic x Neom box which I was hoping would have arrived by now \u2013 there is still time! But I will probably do a little blog post on the contents of this when it arrives, as it looks insane for the price.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So anyway now I am feeling good again, I can bring you my latest Femme Luxe Finery finds<\/a>! I am working together with Femme Luxe<\/a> on this blog post, which means the items featured were kindly gifted, but as you know they are one of my favourite brands, I chose all the featured pieces myself and all opinions are my own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lets get into the haul, so the first piece I chose was this\u00a0Black Polka Dot Ruched Puff Sleeve Dress<\/a>, search Karsyn on the website. I fell in love with this straight away, I am loving the puffy sleeve trend at the moment and something is drawing me to everything\u00a0polka dot<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

They also did this dress<\/a> in white, but I found another white polka dot dress<\/a> I loved, so I thought I would go with the black.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I got this dress in a size L which is a 12\/14. I am very awkward in dress sizing\u2019s as I am a 12 on top but a 10 on bottom, so I wasn\u2019t sure if this was going to be too big, and loose, especially around the hips but in actual fact it came up very small.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As you can see in the photo\u2019s it looks great, and the fit on the hips is perfect, however I couldn\u2019t get the zip up all the way at the back so unfortunately I will have to sew a little extra material on to the back to make this fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I do think this is a great dress<\/a>, but if you don\u2019t want to make any alterations and you want a ready to wear piece, I would definitely recommend sizing up.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next item I chose was this\u00a0White Polka Dot Ruffle One Shoulder Dress<\/a>, search Alea on the website. I feel like this silhouette and in the polka dot print is such a staple, they were in fashion last year, again this year and I would bet anything that they will be back for next summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Throw on with a biker jacket or a denim jacket along with tights and some doc martins when the weather is a bit cooler and you can totally carry this dress into autumn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now again I got this in a size L, and this I would say is true to size, I could have probably got away with getting a medium actually as there is plenty of room around the bust area and of course it has a nice floaty shape, but to be honest, because this has a tie detail waist, I am happy with it being on the larger size, it means it comes up a bit longer, which I love; it\u2019s much more comfortable, and who doesn\u2019t want that in a heat wave and it\u2019s not restrictive for the food baby; always a winner.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The next item I chose was this Mesh Puff Sleeve Top<\/a>, search Louisa on the website. Now I can only find this on the website in a baby pink colour, so maybe the black has sold out, but I stuck to my guns and went for the black, I feel like little tops like this are absolute staples in your wardrobe and you can just throw on time and time again, plus the puff sleeve<\/a> trend, I\u2019m all over, and it just gives a simple black top a little bit of something extra.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I have to say, I wasn\u2019t expecting this top to be as cropped as it is, it deffo needs to be paired with something very high waisted and I would probably belt it too, to be sure I\u2019m not flashing anything when I stretch. But the fabric is thick and good quality, and also quite stretchy, which I love, so I definitely think it\u2019s a great piece. But if you don\u2019t want it too small, I would recommend sizing up in this too. Luckily I already picked this in a M\/L so that was a perfect fit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Paired with it is my camo skirt I also picked from Femme Luxe Finery<\/a> in another haul, but I simply can\u2019t get enough of it yet!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally the last item I chose was this White Plunge Multiway Bodysuit<\/a>, search Marissa on site. Now this is really good quality again, it\u2019s a nice thick material and true to size.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

You will see I am wearing it very differently to the model on the website, simply because I didn\u2019t have the right bra\/nip coves to hand in order to make this plunge; but you definitely could wear it like the model.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

There are literally so many different ways you can wear this, and I am really looking forward to trying them all out and feeling like I have 10 different white bodysuits<\/a>; you can never go wrong with a white bodysuit right!?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Have you had any good finds recently, or are there any trends you can\u2019t get enough of this season?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ps: might be just me, but I am so ready for autumn winter vibes, where I\u2019m wrapped in a cozy jumper and a blankie! But first I have another holiday coming up, so let me know if you have found any new summery bits I should check out!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
