Is it?

Just a quick question..
Is it realistic planning a trip to Hawaii leaving straight from work and coming back super late Sunday night?
Granted,my budget most definitely wouldn't stretch that far..and,obviously,the outward flight alone would take a minimum 15 hours.That doesn't include change over time,waiting around time,travel time or duty free shop needless spending time.And it's also from London.And I'm not in London.So there's travel time to London. 
Then double that for the journey back.
Oh god and I haven't even thought about the fact that I am no where near ready to even be in the same room as a bikini,let alone wear one..
(..cappuccinos,cakes and crisps (a.k.a The Three C's) definitely not helping..)
It's not really realistic is it?
Ah well,a girl can dream. 
And I'll dream surrounded by shirts like this,inspired by my Hawaiian dream.


A day dreamy Milk.it

Got dat feelin'

We've definitely got that Friday feeling here at Milk.it HQ. 
And an array of cakes and coffee is what's helping us get through this afternoon.I think even the weather is feeling happy today - the sun is shining down on our offices...does kind of suck that we're stuck inside but hey,ya can't win em all!
We're putting a load of stuff on our asos store this afternoon so it's on there for you guys over the weekend. Things like this.. 


Or this..

Things to come...

Afternoon all. 
It's only bloody payday tomorrow! We know what we're going to be doing...Celebrating payday..obviously.
Does anyone else do that thing when you're window shopping online and you add things into your 'bag' or 'basket' or whatever in anticipation for the time that the money you've earned that month goes into your account..however little it may be..even if its a few days before...Yeah we do that quite a lot here too..If they were real baskets boy oh boy would they be breaking our arms and overflowing!

I don't know what it's like where you are but over at Milk.it HQ it's still way grey and rainy and it shows no signs of stopping. Apparently the weather man said that apparently it's going to get warmer by the end of next week and we might start getting weather that actually reflects the month..I don't think I believe him...He's lied one too many times and he's lost my trust..
SO, if where you are is anything like where we are then you're weekend will probably be spent nursing a postpaydaycelebrationhangover on the sofa,while the rain pours down outside your window,with multiple cups of tea and food that you know is wrong..all the while browsing the interweb for clothes that you really really want.no clothes that you really really need.
As fellow hungover weekend internet shoppers we understand that sometimes you can get caught up in the excitement of shopping online from the comfort of your sofa and get a bit unnecessarily carried away. We know that in the excitement it can become hard to draw the line. Sometimes it's hard to hear that your budget just will not stretch to cover multiple dresses,a bag,a pair of shoes, a few beanies (for those days when you really can't be bothered to wash your hair...or errr...it's cold..),a new phone case and some kind of fancy mug..
You gotta give yourself a limit (Learnt the hard way)
 We also understand that sometimes, in the kerfuffle,some things may get over looked.Some staple pieces. For example...

(please excuse the haziness of these pictures..we don't know why this has happened) 


 
From our new reworked collection this little clutch would be great with a little black dress.Or a long black dress.Whatever floats your boat.


These two black dresses would be great with the above bag. 

The dress on the left is a lovely little fitted black shift dress.
Would look great with a cute pair of heels and a big jacket.
Think Jane Birkin on a night out in London in the swinin' 60's
The dress on  the right is a suuuuper cute black velvet dress.
It's fitted on the arms and a little loosely fitted on't body.Love it.


This green leather rucksack was really hard to see go.We all wanted it.Alas,we are devoted to the cause and we know that it would have a very happy home with one of you lovely people. 
(p.s. how super cute would this bag look with that black velvet dress,a pair of white socks and some Dr Martens?!)


Right,hear us out.
Forget all the stupid things that are associated with pleated tartan skirts and think about things like Clueless..

( Oh Britanny,we heart you) 


Either of the above are the kind of Dr Martens we were talking about earlier.Cuuuuuuute.

While we're on the subject of Clueless,we might as well bring in these bad boys. Bit of tie dye and some dungarees.Hollaaaaa



We know that perhaps wearing a tie dye top underneath either of these dungarees is pretty daring so you could always match them with a cute black or white t-shirt.or crop top.everyone loves a crop top. 


The above two items come up quite oversized on a girl but we love a bit of 'boyfriend fit' over at Milk.it HQ - so comfy and super cute! 
Alternatively both of these would look great on a guy.So snap these up fo yo man and make him look good.
Or,if you are a man,do yourself (and us) a favor and make yourself look good.


The above is another example of some of the stuff from our reworked range. 
Looks great as a dress or paired with skinny jeans. 


If there's one thing I like (I say 'I' but I mean all of us here at Milk.it HQ) it's a vintage denim jacket with a sh*t load of patches on. 
We know that you can literally never go wrong with even a plain vintage denim jacket..and,granted, in certain situations, nothing else will do. 
It's just that there's something about the addition of these random patches over an extended period of time, a time spent with it's previous owner/s, a time that we have never known or seen and a time that we can only hope to adhere to, that makes these jackets so special. Sometimes, obviously, the patches themselves (and even the jacket itself) are sh*t. 
Like,total shit - linkin park patches on a 2 year old jacket from a high street store kind of shit.It's not even real denim for gods sake.
(yes,we know everything is down to personal taste and opinion blah blah blah)
But other times you get come across a good one.Like this Lee Storm Rider denim jacket with these patches on. Memphis Red Sox.
That's cool right?
..not if you're the White Sox..

Please note that the items we've spoken about aren't on our store yet.So keep your eyes on it or you'll miss 'em.

One thing

 I would like to bring your attention to something. It's something that,yes I know,was mentioned not too long ago...8 posts ago to be precise...
BUT, regardless of this, it's something that is very nice indeed and I don't think that it's previous post did it enough justice. 
Ladies and Gentlemen, may I introduce you to this little number




It's from the new range of reworked stuff that we're doing and it we like it alot. It's a big red thing over the top of a stringy black thing.How can you go wrong with that?!
Ya can't,that's how.

Tuesday treats

Morning all!
We hope you all had a good weekend.Luckily for us it was a bank holiday so we got an extra day of playtime this weekend.BUT now it's back to the daily grind..We got shooting straight away this morning so we're uploading new stuff to the asos store as we speak.(shooting the camera.at clothes.vintage clothes.for you..not guns obvz.)
Here's a few little examples 


This little beauty above is from our new reworked collection. We absolutely love it and it looks super cute on - it was definitely hard to see it go and a £45 it's a steal! 


We love this shirt so much that when we saw it we died,went to heaven,spoke to several pretty cool people,thought we discovered the meaning of life ( and also the formula for glue ), we then saw ourselves in some kind of strangeoutofbodyshirtlovingexperience, we then came back down into our bodies, had a cup of tea and a biccy and then listed it..because we were at work.and we're sensible adults. 
Anyway yeah its £38 and we're all total jelly bellies about whoever gets this shirt. 


This jumper is really good and cool. 
Its Lee.It's all comfy and oversized. It's got a boat on it and an anchor on the back. It's £48. 

Grool.
