DEDICATION TO ALL THE LADIES

Today being International Women's Day, I'd like to dedicate this post to all the women in the world who are going through different phases of their lives. Those who have already lived through it all, those who are just beginning to find themselves and those who are a source of inspiration to women of all walks of life.
To all the mothers without whom none of us would be here today. They brought us into this world, taught us how to be self-less human beings and never shied away from any pain or discomfort that they were sure would bring us joy. They are our source of comfort when we are troubled and  always manage to get us out of the scrapes we get ourselves into. They always want to ensure that we get recognition even when they made al the effort to help us succeed.
To all the sisters, biological or otherwise who have been our companions through thick and thin, when we are sitting down to do something serious or when we are getting into mischief.
To all those women who stepped out of their comfort zone and dared to enter a male-dominated field, setting the pace for the rest of us. You showed us that it is good to dream and fight to make your dreams a reality. You also taught us that we should not wait to have things handed to us or for others (men) to do things for us. We should always be independent and command respect from our counterparts, male or female.
I'd like to pay tribute to those women who sacrifice their lives daily in order to provide the basic needs to their loved ones. Those who deny themselves any comforts and toil just to get a little money to feed, clothe and educate their families.
To all the women in the world, be strong, independent, loving, caring, daring and hardworking. Be proud of being a woman because you have been given the opportunity to do so much good in the world and without you their would be no world, right?

Happy Women's Day!

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?
