CJ'S FASHION FAVOURITES
Hi guys and girls I am here to tell you all about an Australian label called Black Milk Clothing. Black Milk was created by Australian father of two James Lillis, I came upon this label last year while scrolling through my Facebook news feed. My favourite thing about Black Milk is that they have licensed collections from Star Wars to Harry Potter and Game of Thrones. Now I absolutely LOVE everything Game of Thrones, so seeing that there was a range done by Black Milk made me really happy. This leads me to the point of this post, I recently made a few purchases from Black Milk's Game of Thrones and I would like to tell you all about my experience and what I thought of the items I brought.
Team Targaryen & Team Stark GFT(Girlfriend Tee)
 |
My main allegiance in Game of Thrones is to House Targaryen which was one reason why I plan to try and buy all related pieces! These pieces caught my eye, not only because they were Game of Thrones themed, but because of the print and colouring. They reminded me of volcanoes and fire and all things hot, as well as mountains and snow and all things cold. My second allegiance is to House Stark. This design is the complete opposite of the Targaryen tee. Whilst the Targaryen's are all heat and fire, the Stark's are cold and ice.

As you can see from the back view this style of tee is quite long which makes it perfect for pairing with leggings. The tees are made from 100% Polyester, when you first get them they feel kind of like a new polyester quilt cover does when you first get it. Like all Black Milk the washing instructions are hand wash only, which in my opinion is a little bit of a pain, I am sure alot of people agree with me on that!
There are two style cuts in this print, the GFT(girlfriend tee) and the BFT(boyfriend tee). The style I chose was the GFT because it is more fitted and a more feminine cut than the BFT which is looser and can be worn by guys as well as girls. The sizing of the tees goes from an XXS to an XL, what sizing you get all depends on your measurements and how broad your shoulders are. I am normally a size 10 in tops and I got a size L because I have broadish shoulders.
I absolutely love both of these designs, the colouring, the logo's, the fact that they are great pieces to add to my ever growing Game of Thrones collection. They are so comfortable to wear. The one thing I have heard that many people dislike about the cuts is that they don't really have any shape and don't suit some people. They are a little loose on the bottom, but I don't think that it is anything major. Another gripe that people have had is that they don't think they are worth the $60 price tag. I am kind of on the fence about that, I do think that they could be a little better in terms of quality. But for what they are I love them. There are a few more tees of this cut in the Game of Thrones collection that I plan to purchase sometime soon.
