blogmilkshop

Hello, everyone! It feels like ages since I've posted on the blog. As you may have noticed, we've been making lost of changes to our brand and slowly but surely things are taking shape.

Before I get into the "very, very" interesting stuff let me just mentioned a few things that might make browsing through this site and our shop a little easier. We are hoping to make further changes to our brand so you will find that Blog Milk is now our homepage. My blog address has changed, so please feel free to update your RSS or sign up for the Newsletter. I have a new Twitter handle too: @theblogmilk - This is an effort to allow me more freedom to post tweets blog/shop/personal related.

Now on to more interesting things. As I mentioned last week, I'm incredibly grateful for your help and your support and I promised a giveaway will be coming soon. After a lot of thinking and asking for advice, I realized that many of you would like a redesign for your personal blogs, and so I decided to give away one sample of each of the themes available in the shop. That means 19 of you have a chance of winning. There are 10 Blogger Themes and 9 Wordpress Themes available.

In order to participate:
Simply, visit the shop and tell me which is your favorite theme

The winners will be picked randomly and announced on February 28th via Facebook.
Good luck and Thank You for your support!

  1. you've always been my favourite blog designer! Cant be any happier to find out that you're having a giveaway!

    My favourite has to be Booklet but I realised there isn't the categories list because it's not long enough :( probably good for portfolio but not a personal blog!
    my another favourite is definitely going to be Cinza! would be lovely to have it for the blog :)

    ps- stay awesome!

    ReplyDelete

  2. Gosh. I can't decide which one I like the most, because I like them all! My top 3 favorites are Structure, Cinza and Rose. I love how clean and simple they all are - so sophisticated!

    ReplyDelete

  3. I love COLORKEY! Honestly, it's hard to choose though. All of the designs are so clean, appealing, and wonderful :)

  4. Ana, congrats on such a gorgeous redesign! It all looks wonderfully effortless, and yet I know the hard work that you put into your designs and everything that you do. The Blog Milk brand is becoming so distinctive and the new collection is especially stunning. My favourite is Moss. but since I already purchased it (how can a girl resist?), my runner up is Booklet. But Emma is pretty sweet too :)

    Thanks again for everything; for doing what you do.

    ReplyDelete

  5. Moss is my favourite! I'd start a blog if I could afford that perfect theme. I love the minimalism. Thank goodness you exist to cut out/remove the bore of 99% of blogger blog themes <3 Love from Estonia

  7. hi Ana! thanks so much for allowing your devotees a chance to win an awesome cool blog theme.

    as soon as your site went up live last week i purchased the Structure theme for my blog as I loved the large post area and of course, the elegant and simplicity of the theme.

    but my all time favorite is the Frolic theme you have available for wordpress - i can't seem to get enough of that one .. :)

    cheers!

    xoxo, kiki.

    ReplyDelete

  21. Hello Over There!

    I just want to say how much I love Blog Milk's blog themes! I love the new layout you have going for the shop as well!

    I would say my favorite would be MOSS. I really like how it feel like a landing page when you first arrive, and the blog title are categories off towards the top left and right. It feels to me like it expands the page! and with a nice amount of white space I am immediately attracted to it! Very Well done :)

  35. What a coincidence, the reply above me is using your Folio theme I wanted to see 'live' somewhere..

    I would LOVE to get my hands on the Booklet theme (blogger), I see it has a lot of that simple design I love. Thanks.

  36. My favorite theme is Booklet for blogger! It's so gorgeous!

    ReplyDelete

  37. Fantastic! I've been anxiously awaiting the new themes, and they are amazing! Colorkey is just what I'm looking for to start up a new, fun, cheerful food blog! I recently stopped posting over at my personal blog (Create*Loves) and have been planning to start a food blog. I've got journal pages full of ideas, and when I saw Colorkey, I knew that was going to be the theme for me!

  38. I love Rose and TALULAH LULA! Your layouts are wonderful and elegant. Keep up with the good work!
    Thanks :)

    ReplyDelete

  39. I don't know how you do it, but your themes get more and more stunning with each set you release...Keep on keeping on, Ana!

    It's a reeeally close call between BOCH and TALULAH LULA, but I think BOCH would win if i had to choose ;) It resembles a lot of my favourite magazines to read - simple but elegant. Best of luck to all!

My favorites are: BOLIG, ELLE, and STRUCTURE! Hopefully I'll be a lucky winner of one so I'll have to choose!!

    ReplyDelete

  82. I love all of them and it was very difficult to choose, but my favorite is structure. All your themes are great. I love the simple modern aesthetic you have, yet at the same time your themes definitely stand out from the crowd. I am starting a thriftstyle/diy blog (tiffisdiff.blogspot.com) (currently using instagram to test out ideas right now) and your themes would be perfect!

    ReplyDelete

  83. The shop looks great! It is so easy to navigate. I think my favorite template is Structure although I do like Rose as well! So many lovely templates to choose from. You are very talented!

    ReplyDelete

  87. First of all, let me tell you how excited I was to find your shop yesterday! I've been blogging since December 2008, and it's truly amazing how difficult it is to find a beautiful, minimalist theme. I was so happy to find your site and see the beautiful array of gorgeous themes :)

    I would absolutely LOVE to win the Wordpress "Urban Theme" - it's gorgeous and I'd love to use it on my blog ZarnasRunway.com.

    Fingers crossed!

    ReplyDelete

  88. ELLE is definitely my favorite! Simple and beautiful.

    ReplyDelete

  89. I love "urban theme" for wordpress. so clean and elegant. they are all lovely. it is hard to choose just one!

    ReplyDelete

    ReplyDelete

  91. SO CUTE! i've been trying my hand at redesigning my own blog but it's harder than i thought. i'm a graphic designer and the web part is killing me.
    but i'd probably rock the hell out of structure. or booklet. i kinda can't decide BUT they're wonderful.

  93. Hi Ana,

    I really like your blog designs - they have always been what I wanted for the look of my own blog. I have been running a fashion blog, Naked Glory, that's based in Singapore for 2 years now! I know the name Naked Glory raises some eyebrows, but I named it as such because I wanted people to be able to dress whatever they want, however they want it, without being self conscious.

    I would really like to have Structure because I love the fixed nav bar and the wide width - perfect for my photos.

    Thank you so much Ana!

    Xx Vera
    PS I'm @nakedgloryvera on Instagram - I hope you accept my request I would really like to be able to see your photos.

    ReplyDelete

  94. All your themes are unique, and divine! If I can only choose one as my favorite it would be "MOSS", although "Booklet" is a close tie. Beautiful work, and thanks for the opportunity! :)

    ReplyDelete

  95. I love them all!! But I definitely love the structure theme for blogger.

    ReplyDelete

  96. before I even found out about this giveaway i was already in love with your designs. all of them quite frankly, even the wordpress.org ones even though i am on blogger. I have them committed to memory as I have not been able to stop looking at them.all.the.time. I have them imprinted on my heart for some reason and last night I dreamed i was flying through the beauty of your design and templates...your gorgeous photos were woven in and out of my sleep as well. By far my two favorites are 'booklet' and 'talulah lula'. Those are the ones that haunted my steps all day yesterday. xxoo

    ReplyDelete

  97. I absolutely love the BM designs, they're so edgy and unique!

    If I have to chose one, I think Moss is my fav.

    ReplyDelete

  107. I love all your new designs! They're beautiful and simplistic as always. Hell, I want ANOTHER one. :) Right now, "Booklet" is my favorite. I love the way that the sidebar stays precisely where you put it. I love it.

    ReplyDelete

  108. I obviously can't choose just one theme because I love them all (amazing design work that I aspire to by the way!), but I would choose Mod for the clean layout!

    ReplyDelete

  109. Wow. Great giveaway. I just looked at all of the themes twice if not three times. I love MOSS and EMMA. Thanks so much. Fingers crossed.

    ReplyDelete

  110. My favourite would probably have to be Bolig - simple and puts the focus on writing, just as it should be! (Cinza is also nice, but I'm a Wordpress fan through and through.)

    ReplyDelete

  111. thank you for hosting such an awesome giveaway. I am a fan of Mod (for wordpress). Keep up the amazing work.

  116. YAY, ANA! Thanks so much for the giveaway! I was just thinking of getting a theme for my other blog :D I absolutely love these new changes, you've done it beautifully <3 I think I've already told you, but Structure is my favourite, yet I also adore Booklet :) Structure is so functional and clean, and Booklet's scrolling thing is very unique.

    Thanks again!
    Much love,
    Kirthi
    P.S. I haven't got a Facebook, so would you be tweeting the winners tomorrow? I'd love to congratulate the winners!

    ReplyDelete

  117. What an amazing giveaway - thank you!
    My favourite theme is Urban for wordpress, closely followed by Bolig. Such gorgeous designs!
    Also, I love your blog redesign, it looks fab!

    ReplyDelete

  118. I'm in LOVE with the Marie theme for Wordpress! I adore what you did with the dashed lines! It's so unique and classic! I would totally use it for my blog!

    I've been putting off launching my blog because I can't seem to get the design to my liking, and when I get close I get slammed with other projects. Then I come back to my design and I hate it haha (im sure you know how that goes, life of freelance haha) I would use this in a HEARTBEAT!
