milk doll

Drinking milk puts me on edge. I just don't like it. However, I have always loved milky-toned colors. Eggshell, alabaster, cream, crème, dust, cloud, milk. I have as much milk colored or milk washed clothing as I do the deepest black. It's chic, season-less, and hard to wear; which is a testament to the wearer's own versatility. I'll admit it, I own white jeans, not ski-white, but summer-time-cloud-white with underflecks of the lightest blue suggesting that I wore them from their original indigo shade into their current spectral hue (I did not). Though, all an white outfit is not something to be tried off the runway or outside of Miami/Jersey since the white quickly loses its innocent cast and turns lurid if not lewd. Also, an all white outfit is a bitch to keep clean. Temper the lights with heavier pieces and layers to minimize stains and generally just look awesome.
