DRESSED IN A MAXI AND SEQUINS

 **** This post was meant to be up last week but due to technical issues, I was unable to post it.
Hi!!! It's so cold today and yet I thought we had started the month on a warmer note. Oh well, what to do???
I’ve read so many blog posts on how to wear sequins during the day. I’ve always wanted to try it out but when the sun is shining at its maximum, you don’t want to be responsible for blinding everyone on the streets. Then my sister (I have two by the way), bought this sequined scarf and I couldn’t wait to include it in my outfits.
I wore this outfit to class, a brown maxi dress with lots of blue (turtle-neck, belt, sequined scarf). I added a black blazer for protection against the cold, stocking and flats. I carried a brown hand bag and wore brown earrings. 







Outfit Details:
Maxi Dress: Sarojini Market, India
Turtleneck: Chandigarh, India
Belt, scarf, handbag, earrings: gifts

AWESOME READS THURSDAY
 Next month I celebrate my one year anniversary since I started blogging. In order to prepare to mark this time when I started doing something I love, I'd like to post a few things related to my blog. First off, I'd like to let you know more about the reason I started blogging. It's important to notice things in the society and want to see a change. but that change has to come from you, as an individual. Something I've wanted to see a change in is fashion, style and elegance in the Kenyan society. This is why I started Inches To Style

Shasie of Live Life In Style has some cute headbands that I'd really like to own.

When the weather is as it is scarves can come in handy. They are easy to put on and off and they can be used to add a little something to your outfit. Jenni of I Spy DIY gives a great tutorial on making a fringe scarf.

In my challenge to add colour to my outfits, I found Allie of Wardrobe Oxygen's red and turquoise outfit so inspiring that I'm going to try it out.

Accessories can become overused and uninspiring when used over a long period of time. Finding new ways to mix them up like these featured in The Chic Sheet can be fun and exciting.

I don't follow designers so much but from time to time it's good to see some designs that may be out of reach (e.g. couture) but still give you more reason to dress up. Mikki of Stylish Obsessions picked a few photos of Valentino's show-case that I can't stop thinking about.

Happy Thursday!!!

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?
