OUTFIT: Blue Skies

This morning the sky was so blue and there was sunshine!!! Oh the joy of knowing I can get a little bit of warmth after a very cold couple of days :-) Anyway, I had to go and see the doctor today, a good excuse to continue my comfort streak (Like I said, I put comfort above everything else when I'm dressing ).


I put on a pair of black cotton trousers, a denim shirt worn here and a brown sweater. I layered the shirt with a turtle-neck.



I covered up with this black jacket because even though there was sunshine it was still quite chilly out.


To accessorize, I tied my multi-coloured scarf which I had worn on this day. I tied it using a tutorial from Already Pretty which shows different ways to tie a scarf. I wore a pair of stud, pearl earrings a small ring (another like this one worn here that I bought in India and I find to be typically Indian). I kept the jewellery subtle so that I can let the scarf stand out.


I carried my brown bag to bring out the colour of my sweater and some parts of the scarf that are brown. I also wore my blue shoes which I hadn't put on in such a long time. They inspired this outfit.


I really like this bag. The chocolate brown colour is versatile enough for me to carry it with almost any outfit, I can carry it as a cross-body bag or as a hand-held bag and it's large enough and has many pockets that allow me to carry many things.



 I bought this sweater at a thrift store. I was drawn to the detail around the collar and down the centre-front. After I had bought it, I discovered that it is made with a combination of silk and wool.



 I chose this scarf because it not only adds a pop of colour to my outfit, it also has all the colours that I am wearing and I think it brings all the elements of my outfit together.


 This is my second attempt at styling this denim shirt. I can't wait to style it in other ways!!!

I hope you are having a wonderful week.

My Style: Mad About Denim

 I feel like I have put up soo many denim-related outfits of late but that's because I live in jeans. I can't help it. Let's talk about these particular jeans. They are high-waisted and have a zip that runs half-way up the calf and the fact that they stretch a little really adds to their charm. I paired them with a blue multi-layered top which I found to be so cute and feminine and topped it all off with my striped blue blazer. I love the cropped style and fit of this blazer. It instantly smartens up any outfit that I pair it with. For shoes, I opted for my grey sneakers which I first appeared on the blog here . Pops of red, in the form of lipstick and a necklace, added some more colour and brightness to the outfit.   Outfit Details: Jeans: Borrowed from my sis (Thrifted, Gikomba Market) Top and Blazer: Thrifted, Gikomba Market Shoes: Bus Station, Nairobi Earrings: Gift Necklace: Thrift Away (Instagram) Thank you for stopping by. xo

ABOUT

Hi, I'm Audrey. Welcome to Inches To Style☺ How it started I fell in love with fashion at an early age. In fact, I wanted to be a model and when I realised that I wouldn’t make the cut because of my height, I decided that I would become a fashion designer. I’d been making clothes for my dolls for years so I knew that was a career path I would love to pursue.  I didn’t study fashion nor did I become a fashion designer but my love for clothes and putting outfits together stuck with me.  On September 12, 2011 I wrote my first blog post, after I discovered the world of fashion blogs and got hooked. I thought to myself, “I can do this! I like writing and I like fashion, so why not?” And so Inches To Style was born. What to expect from the blog At first, I wanted this blog to be a source of inspiration for anyone looking to up their style game. As time progressed and my personal style and lifestyle has evolved, I found the name of my blog quite fitting as I’m moving inches (closer) ...

HOW TO: Wear A Pencil Skirt | With a T-Shirt and Statement Necklace

Hello lovelies! My quest to learn how to style a pencil skirt continues. I was selling this skirt ( on Botique i2s ) some time ago but I didn't get someone to buy it. So I added it to my arsenal. I have worn it twice since. I previously paired it with a white button down shirt. For last Sunday's Church outfit, I wore it with a chocolate brown t-shirt and added a statement necklace to dress up the outfit a little. My tan brown wedges have finally made a reappearance on the blog. A lime green and brown turban completed the outfit. Outfit Details: Skirt: Botique i2s T-Shirt: India Wedges: Bus Station Necklace: bought from a friend Head-wrap: India  I must say that I prefer this combination of colours more than with the white shirt. What do you think of it? How would you have worn this skirt?   Have you checked out my online store yet?
