Leather Skirt + Double Headwrap

By
Leather anything has been high on of my wishlist this year. I have been looking to add a number of leather pieces to my closet. I got a leather jacket from my mum which I want to repurpose. This leather skirt has been around for a while. I bought it for my sister some three years ago when I got a cobalt blue leather pencil skirt. Three years down the line, a baby and numerous body changes have us exchanging our clothes and this skirt was quickly added to my arsenal. I remembered that I had  it a few Sundays ago and since the weather permitted it (I can't bear to wear leather in the heat) I brought it out for a spin.
I paired it with a lace top, trying to mix hard and soft textures, dark stockings, pointy-toe flats and a double headwrap. A black bead necklace and pink lip completed my outfit. I chose this pink scarf for my headwrap because I thought it brought out the shades of pink in the skirt. I added the black and white scarf for a little bit of interest. I had seen this idea of a double headwrap on Pinterest and had been planning to try it and this outfit proved to be the ideal time.
I hope you have all been well. I am really enjoying being back to the blogging world. I will continue putting up posts, I'm thinking three times a week, for now, as I work on my schedule. I hope that in time I will be able to post a few more times a week, let's see.

How do you feel about leather clothes? Is a leather skirt something that you can see as a staple in your closet?

My Style: Mad About Denim

By
 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

By
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?
