Black Milk Clothing Flatlay

I've never been one to flatlay anything but it's really a fun way to experiment with outfits and accessories. The only reason why I started was because Black Milk Clothing have a competition on to win a prize pack including a $100 voucher - which is an awesome prize in itself. The theme is Princesses but most girls are placing their own spin on it rather  than following any specific Disney Princess theme. You can enter here

Here are my 2 entries with more ideas spawning right now:

High Tea Princess

So I labelled this entry as "High Tea Princess". This to me is something I would wear to a nice picnic, girly date or high tea. It's just dainty and girly and I love it. The feature piece is Black Milk's Watermelon skater skirt which was AUD $50 though is no longer available. The majority of the items shown are from Singapore - the bag, cardigan and shoes. I couldn't tell you the price of the bag as it was a gift but the cardigan was approx $15 and shoes $25. The make up is standard pharmacy items like Maybelline lipgloss, Revlon lipstick and Bourjois blush. The pink turtle neck top was approx $10 at some random store in Perth

Gamer Princess

This second entry I labelled "Gamer Princess". The skirt was actually a limited item by Black Milk clothing with 8 bit hearts which aren't clearly visible in this picture. I believe it cost AUD $50. Shoes I bought from Solestruck on sale for US $80 and they are still available but at US $159.95. The geek beanie was $10 from Cotton On Clothing. The bag I bought from Philippines and can't remember how much but i wouldn't say more than AUD $20. I bought the crop top from Forever 21 though can't seem to find it on their site. I also bought this top from Philippines and judging by the price of their general floral crops, it wouldn't be more than US$20. Another item worth noting is the Lime Crime Velvetine lipstick which costs AUD$24 in shade Suedeberry - a vegan friendly product.

So I'll probably fill my Instagram with more flat lays and then come here to post my creations.

Will see what creations I come up with :)

Nyan Cat OOTD

Who doesn't love Nyan Cat? Really...

Well why not wear them? I love Cher and the work she does with her company Poprageous

I have been one of her first few hundred customers from early stages. I feel privileged that she would take on board ideas us girls might have in designs that we would want to see printed. When she did a Nyan Cat print, I just knew I had to have them:

Nyan Cat leggings

Of course my feature piece is the most expensive: US $80. But for eternal happiness, this is sooooooooooooooo worth it.

Do I need to mention all the other pieces? Well $5 flats by Rubi Shoes. Pink Singlet from Supre for $10. The navy blue chiffon top was also $10 from Supre. $5 white scarf from Cotton On. And, lastly a cardigan from Temt for $15.

As always, my most expensive piece is the most important piece on display based on quality of material. Everything else is way fractioned to compensate. Of course, with better quality clothing, I could make this into a $500 outfit but approx $125 is fine to me ^_^

But go support Cher and her company and go buy her Nyan Cat leggings

Mucha OOTD

So many outfits I have gone through in the past 9 months. What to show first? Well searching through Instagram, there have been many OOTD pics I've shared, but I guess I want to share what's still relevant and available for purchase.

The feature piece obviously in this picture are the Black  Milk Mucha black leggings

It's artwork on fashion. For those that don't know, the piece of artwork is by Czech artist Alphonse Mucha - more information can be found here: http://www.muchafoundation.org/

Lucky for most people, this pair of leggings is still available at Black Milk Clothing for AUD $75. It really is an easy pair of leggings to wear. I feel dainty when I wear this piece. Here is a pic of the model wearing the leggings:

The top I bought on sale for$5 or $10 at Supre and it's just a sheer chiffon light flowing top. I can't find the exact top on their website but you can easily find a top like this on websites such as BooHoo, Forever 21, Asos, MissGuided... Basically any women's fashion website.

The shoes are not worth mentioning. This was at a time I just moved to Melbourne and had hardly any belongings so was limited to these old flats that were the only creamish coloured shoes I had ^_^ They probably only cost $10

The pearls are easily available through accessory stores like Collete Accessories, Diva or Lovisa.

You can easily have a complete outfit under $100 whilst having one feature piece be of great quality material :)

So here is my first post since a very long time. More to come soon!

Black Milk meet up - Victoria

For those of you that don't know, I moved to Melbourne. Some major things happened in my life and it was a spur of the moment decision. I moved to a new city where I don't really know anyone and no one really knows me - which is perfect for a new beginning!

One of the first nights in Melbourne, I decided to go to a Black Milk Clothing meet up. I knew no one and decided to take a chance and take this opportunity to meet the creator and his main PR guy. Major fan girl moment!! It was so exciting and I was pushed out of my comfort zone but it was so worth it! Here are my pics with the creator jL and handsome cam - the main PR rep:

It was amazing for a company and designer to say you look great and that he loved your outfit. It was a special feeling for him to say thank you for supporting him and thanks for making it to the meet up. I feel proud to be part of a community where girls and guys are supportive of each other. Very happy to be a customer of a man who genuinely cares about his community.

To make the night even better, everyone went into the raffle to win some upcoming products. I was lucky enough to win some cartoon owl leggings and it made me feel like Melbourne was a great choice to live in - it made it positive ^_^ Here is a pic of what I won:

I can't wait to meet more girls and make new friends. If you've ever thought about buying Black Milk Clothing leggings, you should do it! The benefits you reap from fabulous nylon and making new friends makes it all worthwhile!

Thanks for stopping by!
