♡ Black Milk Adventure Time Swimsuit Review ♡

  BlackMilk Adventure Time Wolfpack Swimsuit Review

Shipping: Free, express post (in Australia)
It arrived in its usual shiny black envelope. This order took a bit longer to process than normal, it took about 5 days after I paid for it to be sent but arrived with in 2 working days of being posted.


Item/Quality/Price:
I got rid of my old bikinis for this series from BlackMilk. Picking a favourite design was so hard but I went for this one because I figured it would look great as a body suit too. It is a light, stretchy material. When stretched it doesn't go see through. I have been swimming in a pool and a lake so far wearing it and it is a great swimming suit. It looks awesome, has a lovely cut so I don't have to worry about popping out or getting a wedgie when I dive into the water haha.


It was expensive, the most I have ever paid on swimmers. But I knew it was going to be and I really wanted it so I was willing to pay for it.

Overall:
A great, flattering swimsuit. It is pricey, shipping was slower than normal but still arrived in about 7 working days after being paid for. I have never been disappointed with the service or quality from BlackMilk.

Black Milk Review #2





Price:
$155, much like the last lot, I've been wanting these for ages. The Tokyo Massacre ones I actually missed out on the first time and they were put in the museum so I thought I had missed out on them completely. Again, I'll say, they are very expensive for leggings but I don't really regret buying them. They are designer, they are made in Australia, supporting Aussie workers, designers and business, they offer free express post to Australia, so I understand the price tag. They were a treat and I won't be spoiling myself like that again for a little while. My wallet can't take it.

Shipping: Free!
Sweet~ They were shipped express post to me, from Brisbane down to Sydney for me. Black Milk offers free domestic and international shipping. They arrived folded up in a black ziplock baggy with the BM logo on the front, safe and undamaged, and they arrived the day after the shipping confirmation email. All in all I had to wait about 3 days to get them.

Extras:
This time I got a giant BM logo sticker...which I have no where to stick it.

Sizing:
I went for the same sizing as before, XS for me, and they fit great, I could probably get away with XXS but I don't want to risk discomfort. These leggings stretch A LOT, they offer from XXS to XL but it's better to go by measurements.

Quality:
Very high. I have worn these so much, I pretty much live in them and they haven't stretched much or faded. They breathe, so I don't get sweaty or overheat in them and they don't let my legs get cold either. You do have to hand wash them though. I soak mine in shampoo and rinse them separately.

Overall:
Love them to bits! Black Milk has made me a happy little chappy once again.

BlackMilk Leggings Review

I’m sorry for the quality of the photos I only have my phone for a camera and so I use instagram as a shortcut to edit them. Also this was an order and review I did back in early July 2013 before I had this blog. 

This is not a sponsored review 





Shipping: Free.
Black Milk offers free international and domestic shipping. It is based in Brisbane Australia so it was shipped express to me in Sydney. It arrived the day after I received the shipping confirmation email. It was packed in a black ziplock packet with the BM logo on it.


Easter Eggs/Extras:
I’d like to mention that you get a few little quirky bonuses each time you buy. I got a little sticker which I put on my 3ds, you get a humorous letter/reciept and their washing instructions were like a little biblical listing of commandments which also gave me a giggle.

Price: $150.
These are a little pricier and sort of a treat for me. I’ve wanted a pair for a while so I saved up. In all honesty I think they are a little overpriced but the quality is great, I’m supporting an Australian business and fair trade workmanship. They are made really well and the fabric is good quality, plus these are designer leggings so of course they are going to be expensive.


Size:
I was a little worried about sizing. From their chart I was between an XXS and an XS. They advise you to go for the smaller size if you are in the middle but not all the designs offer XXS. I just decided to go for XS. I asked for advice on the facebook page and was met with helpful suggestions and was told I could exchange them if they were not the right sizing. The sizing is just fine for me, in fact I think an XXS might have been a little bit too tight for me. The fabric is really stretchy so it would have fit but I think if they had been XXS the colouring would have paled a little from stretching. With the XS I do have a little extra room on my legs but it doesn’t look unappealing or baggy.


Item/Quality/Material:
I love them to bits. I’ve had a few compliments which is always nice. My Beetlejuice leggings, because they have white stripes, I had to buy some skin coloured underwear though. Anything else is visible underneath them. They are a nylon/spandex blend so stretchy, thick and tight..and shiny….and beautiful.

Overall:
I think they are worth every penny, even though it is a stretch for my little wallet I do not regret buying them. They will get lots of wear and I am following the 15th commandment each time wearing them feeling like a ‘hot little boss’. These are the only leggings I have come across where I think it is okay to wear them as pants haha.
