LIEBSTER AWARD

By


Last week, Shasie of Live Life in Style awarded me the Liebster Award. This is the second time in less than a month that I've received this award. I feel so honoured to have received it yet again.

A little about the award
The Liebster Blog Award is an award given to bloggers by bloggers that have 200 followers or less. Basically, just a fun way to support each other and show some love for having a great blog. 
When you receive the award, you post 11 random facts about yourself and answer 11 questions from the person(s) who nominated you. 
You pass the award onto 11 other blogs (make sure you let them know you nominated them!) and ask them 11 questions. 
You are not allowed to nominate the blog(s) who nominated you. (To get the button, right click the photo on my page and save to your computer to post on your blog)
My answers
Since I've just received this award, I'll just answer the questions Shasie asked me.

 1. Why did you start blogging?
I've had a love for all things fashion since I was a little girl. Some time in 2010, I came across my first fashion blog, College Fashion and I got hooked to it. I visited the blog on a daily basis and in my free time I would go through their previous posts especially the ones giving styling tips. Then last year, an idea came to me to start a blog of my own. At first I was unsure of it until my younger brother and sister and a very good friend of mine pushed me and told me to go ahead, I had nothing to lose. And so Inches To Style was born.

 2. Who are your style icons?
I greatly admire my mum, she has great style. She hasn't given in to society's demands that a married woman of her age should dress in a certain way. She dresses the way she wants, but at the same time she is both stylish and elegant.

3. Tell us your favourite bloggers.
My fave bloggers are:-
Catherine of Not Dressed as Lamb
Kashara of Undiscovered Worth

4.What's your favourite fashion magazine?
That would have to be InStyle. I'm an addict!

5. What's your favourite item in your closet right now?
My new lace dress and brown pumps.

6.What's your plan for New Year's?
I haven't thought that far. I'm still planning parties for this month.

7.Where do you see yourself in your blogging career 5 years from now?
I want to have established myself as a Kenyan fashion blogger with a wider audience within Kenya. I started my blog to help women in my country to be stylish and elegant so this is very important for me.

8. How did you come up with the name of your blog?
I wanted to incorporate all the things that I believe make up a stylish, elegant woman, who a guy will admire but not lust after. Instead of bombarding women with all the tools that can help them with this, I thought of doing it little by little, moving inch by inch to style and elegance.

9. What is it that you love about fashion?
You mean apart from the colours, textures, styling options, catwalks? It's all so exciting and you can never get bored with fashion.

10. Describe your personal style in 3 words.
Classic. Chic. Elegant.

11. What's your favourite genre of music?
RnB.


Happy Wednesday

My Style: Mad About Denim

By
 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

By
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

By
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?
