Collins also said: ”I get the question a lot of why I call  my store Milk. Well just take a moment and think about all the things we use milk for. A lot of  put it in our coffee to make it creamier.  We may add it to our eggs to make them fluffier.  We all love a good cup of hot cocoa on a cold day or night.  If you are ever in need of a late night snack you can never go wrong with milk and cookies. Me, myself I’m a country girl so I like to add milk and butter to my rice.  Even our babies thrive and grow off of milk the first year of life. Milk for most of us is a staple , be it almond milk soy milk etc it is  still milk. Long story short there’s a velvety smoothness that only milk can give and because of that it can be replaced.”

Collins went on to say that: “At the milk boutiqueI provide the latest styles in women’s fashion for an affordable price.  Sexy , bold , classy and stylish that pretty much sums up the Milk Collection.

I get a lot of ladies reaching out especially for special occasions saying they need an outfit.  Whether they have a date, a big event or just headed out of town. They come in to shop with me.  I’ve never had any complaints about the quality of my merchandise I believe quality is most of all better than quantity.’’

In closing Mia reflecting on her upbringing stated : “I’m inspired by my grandmother Ida Mae Collins owner founder of Mama Collins Daycare, located in North Tulsa.  I watched my grandmother be a boss and I admired that about her.
