Mid-week Reflections: January Edition

Hello everybody! I hope the first month of 2015 has been good to you. I have so much to share in this month's Mid-week Reflections.

On Work
First things first, I have managed to put up a post every day (Monday to Friday) this month. I am so happy to have accomplished this. At the beginning of this year I mentioned that I had made a resolution to be more regular with my blogging and so far so good! I had intended to have posts up by 7:30 a.m. I managed for most days but on some I put them up a bit later, but they were still up.



When I launched my new website, I mentioned that I was working on something new and exciting. I have not been able to share it with you until now. I will do a full post on it next month but know this, it involves this matching set outfit.

As you can probably tell from the posts I have been putting up this month, I have taken a different route with the blog this year. So far I have gotten a good response and I am happy to finally see my site take the form I have long yearned for. I will continue this thread and add more fashion and beauty related topics as I try to cover all bases.



Another exciting this is that I have now categorized my shop and created a Maternity Dresses Kenya Facebook page dedicated to all things maternity from dresses for sale to advice I collected during my own maternity to celebrities maternity styles etc. Please like and share the page with your friends.

On life and family

I am counting down the days to Elly's first birthday. I have already started planning her birthday dinner and party. I know this sounds a bit control-freak of me, but when I am excited about something I can't help myself but plan, plan, plan!



Just recently, I read an article that spoke about new opportunities and having the courage to pursue them. I have just discovered that I am afraid of change. I do everything in my power to run a way from it and then I get bummed out because life is too boring and predictable. But after reading that article, I started to really think about my life and all the things I want to accomplish: being an awesome mum to Elly, be a good support to my better half and meet my life goals that I cannot afford to be afraid of change. I have to see the new, exciting opportunities knocking at my door and be courageous enough to go into the unknown. I am so happy to have learnt this life lesson and to have shared it with you.

Thank you for your support this month!

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?
