Trends To Try | Flared Jeans

It's no secret that I love a good pair of jeans. I am a huge fan of the skinny variety because I think they are a great way to show off your legs without baring any skin. However, I have always been in love with flared trousers and for this post, jeans. I remember when I was about 12 years old, I had these flared toursers (circa 1970) that I was in love with. Of course with puberty came changes in body weight, etc. so I had to let those go. Then, just before I had Elly I ventured out and bought three pairs. One had lace trimming and I had to give them up as soon as there was news of a baby. The other two saw me through my maternity period.
With that in mind, I have been looking for ways in which I can wear flared trousers without a #throwback moment coming to mind. I want to wear flared jeans in a chic way that says 2015 and not 1999. So off to Pinterest I went and I came across these gorgeous outfit ideas that I had to share with you.

Style Tips:
~Wear flared jeans with fitted top or shirt tucked in for a sense of proportion.
~They look great with platform wedges or platform heels although you can dress them down with flats.
~Try a  Boho-chic look with a loose fitting shirt or kimono, hat, lots of necklaces and bangles.

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?
