We have always been big fans of the Real Living Magazine and as subscribers from way back we always wait eagerly for that monthly delivery. That little run to the letterbox was even more worth it this time, as hidden between the pages is a little Milly and Eugene gem. We could not believe after such a short time of launching our site, being asked to be a part of the Real Living September issue. This months addition features our lovely little 20cm neon orange Buddha.
WOW! No words... we are totally, utterly, completely overwhelmed by the reaction we've had to our very first competition. Hailey and I launched our online home wares just shy of a month and wanted to give all of our friends that, like, comment and follow our posts on instagram and Facebook, a massive thank you for the support you've shown in such a short time. So talking yesterday, we thought why not give away something beautiful!
Well the chill of winter has finally set in. As I sit, in bed, under my doona in my warm winter woolies, I can’t help but think that Spring is just around the corner. Spring is such a lovely time of year, when the stillness of winter bursts to life with warmth and vibrancy. It seems to bring a sense of hope, new life, and fresh starts. For me Spring is best represented through gorgeous bright colours, so it’s time for a big ‘Spring clean’ of our home and to add some splashes of colour.
Lee Jake Mariano Photography is some of the most beautiful, artistic work you will ever see. We maybe a little bias in judgment, because he is our official go to guy. But his work truly inspires us.
Not super selective about his subject, though scrolling through his tumblr, his work features a lot of people, Lee’s photographs have an aura that screams simplistic beauty. He is able to capture a mood that translates through the image, and puts you there, as if you were part of the scene.
We love Bali, it was one of the major factors for inspiration to start Milly and Eugene. Bali is, among other countries in the Asia pacific area, where we source some of our great product and it’s no wonder.
Bali is not the cheap, bogan tropical holiday it once was, though there are still some aspects of bintang singlet’s and all bearing beer bellies, displayed to the locals and tourist alike.
