It's My Birthday!

Happy birthday to me! Getting a year older has me so excited this time round. Don't get me wrong I am always excited when September rolls by knowing that I celebrate so many milestones this month: Elly's half birthday, my birthday and my blog anniversary. But this year, the excitement has gone up a notch. I can't quite explain why but I don't mind.
I am so grateful, first and foremost, to God for getting me through the past year and for allowing me to see a new day. I am also so grateful for the lessons I have learnt in the past year, for the goals which I set which I have achieved and which I am on the way to achieving.
I want to say thank you to my family and friends for being there with me through thick and thin. To my daughter, for giving me a reason to smile each and every day.
Thank you to you who takes the time to read this blog. I know my consistency has not been good. I apologize for that and will work to improve. To all my clients who have had faith in me, thank you.

This dress, which I last wore here, has to be one of my favourites. I absolutely love the fit and I have a thing for shorter hemlines so it's a win win. Pairing it with a blazer and gold belt was my attempt to style this dress differently. I like this pairing better, maybe because the gold and light blue blazer brighten up the outfit.
Outfit Details:
Dress: Thrifted (Gikomba)
Linen Blazer: botique i2s
Shoes: Gift
Earrings and Necklace: Dubois, Nairobi





Here's to another year full of surprises and blessings.

Love you all. xo

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?
