MID-WEEK REFLECTIONS: February Edition


Hello lovelies!
It seems like just the other day I was writing the January edition of Mid-Week Reflections. I like to use this post to talk about key things that have taken place in my life and here on the blog, all in an effort to make this blog as personal as possible.

On Life
The short month of February has practically flown by. A good part of it has been spent carrying out various preparations for the baby's arrival both psychologically and materially. Getting baby things is so much fun and I can't help but marvel at how small we are when we begin our lives. The psychological preparation has been a bit daunting. One might argue that I have had nine months to be mentally prepared but I'm not sure there is any amount of time that would prepare one for such a momentous occasion in one's life. But with the help of God, family and friends, I am certain that the fear of the unknown will be conquered.

On The Blog
This month, I have tried my best to put up posts as often as possible, three days out of five is not so bad. My excuse for not posting on all five days can be narrowed down to lack of planning ahead. I usually plan a week's worth of posts over the weekend and I even write them down in my diary. The biggest challenge I am currently facing is actually putting up said posts on the day they have been scheduled. I could put the blame on Kenya Power (yeah, I have succumbed) but I feel that with a little more planning I could beat them at their own darkening ways.

On Business
As much as I would love to run my online shop fulltime, I am unable to due to these last few months of pregnancy and all that comes with it (exhaustion being paramount!). I intend to do more extensive online marketing, something I am currently working on. At the moment, I am mostly based on my Facebook Page where I post photos of my stock (maternity clothes, official clothes, perfume and jewellery) and take orders. Be sure to stop by:)

Thank you for stopping by.

Happy Wednesday.

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?
