AUDREY'S STYLE: Black and Blue With Animal Print


Hello lovelies!
It has just hit me that I am nearing the end of my pregnancy journey and about to embark on motherhood. This fact has become very evident thanks to the dwindling number of clothes that currently fit my 38 week baby bump. I wore this outfit yesterday for a visit to the doctor's and couldn't help but marvel at how I have been wearing leggings A LOT these days. They are my go-to stay-at-home clothes choice when worn with dress-tops. And the fact that with pregnancy you tend to feel hotter than other people around you, I couldn't help but save my jeans for those days when I need something other than a dress to wear while going out.
 I bought these blue leggings at the onset of my pregnancy (along with this purple top) and I must confess that I have worn them exactly two times and both times paired with this dress-top. When I consider which clothes I want to keep from these nine months, I think leggings (and these blue ones in particular) will NOT be in that list. I feel like I have overworn them and can't wait for the chance to wear real pants again. This top is one of those that I bought some time back (three years to be exact) and I'm still in love with it, even though I rarely wear it and its still new. I particularly like the flower detailing on the collar.
 My hair is still in that stage where I have no idea what to do with it. I am torn between putting braids and cornrows (i.e. lines for us Kenyans) mostly because I want to put something that will last until after the baby arrives. And seeing as I'm running out of time, my lazy hairdo of tying a scarf on my head needs to be amended. I completed my outfit with black sandals and my trusty handbag.

I do hope you are having a wonderful week.

P.S I am selling maternity clothes. Be sure to check out the goods on Facebook.

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?
