AUDREY'S STYLE: ASYMMETRICAL DRESS


Happy new month lovelies!
I hope February has started off well for all of you. There are times when your wardrobe just isn't working for you anymore. Do you sometimes lose the feeling of excitement that came when you initially bought that dress or shirt or even shoes? I do. There are mornings when I find myself struggling to decide on what to wear even when I have mountains of clothes to choose from. I have realized that the only way to counter these feelings, is to get exciting clothes i.e. clothes that have some detail of interest.
 When I bought this dress, I was 50/50 about it. In fact my sister insisted that I buy it. And with the current heat that we are experiencing in Nairobi, it is so easy to hit a slump and wear just about anything in an effort to keep cool. I wore this to Church two Sundays ago. I paired it with low-heeled wedge sandals and a purple patent leather handbag.

 I have a backlog of posts. I just got my laptop back and I'm soooo happy. I am also going through a transitional phase at the moment. I moved house so there is so much to do. Even as I type this, there are boxes waiting to be unpacked. And to top it all off, I went for my doctor's appointment yesterday and I was told that I have water retention that is causing my blood pressure to increase. I have been given medication and I'm trying to take it easy, something I don't have much of a choice seeing as my finger joints are very painful. But as the baby is coming soon, I am hoping that everything will be OK by the time I am going for my next appointment.

Wishing you a fantastic week!

Thank you for stopping by.

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?
