MONDAY STYLIST: Tangerine


****In this weekly post I'll be styling different outfits depending on which occasion you could be having. I will also include any challenges that I am participating in. If you wish to have anything styled, please feel free to get in touch with me through the comments form below, email or on my Facebook page. Enjoy!!!
I had posted about how I would style a  leather skirt and leather jackets some of the things on my 2012 wishlist.


It's spring in north India now, more like it will be summer in a few days. The temperatures are rising at an alarmingly fast rate. For the first time in four months I spent the day without socks and a sweater, the water was pleasant to touch and the nights are cool and comfortable. I haven't felt like this since October and early November. Yay!!! One of this year's spring colours is tangerine. I've mentioned more than once that I'm not a vivid follower of trends but I do like to add one or two elements as the seasons change to update my wardrobe. I love tangerine (the colour and the fruit). It's just the right amount of brightness and won't blind people in the dazzling sunlight.

I have a light sweater in this colour but I don't have it with me. I left it at home when I came back to India and now I wish I hadn't. Here are a other few items I like in this colour.





Since this colour is quite striking, I'd wear it with muted colours preferably neutrals like black or beige and dark colours like chocolate brown and navy blue.


Would you wear tangerine?

Hope your week started on  a positive note:)

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?
