What I Wore: Nairobi Cold

I wore this outfit for the Hustlers premiere a couple of months ago. Has any of you watched Hustlers? Epic movie! A great watch for any #girlboss.
Moving along, when it's dull and rainy like it has been the last couple of days, I automatically think of putting on boots. I've always loved boots and this year I've managed to add to my collection (seperate post coming up soon).
These tan boots are higher than I'd wear on a day to day basis but I love the pop of colour they add to my otherwise darker outfits. I paired them with a navy bodycon dress and light blazer for the night. It was warmer when I wore this outfit, otherwise I'd put on a warmer coat.
The clutch bag acted as my hold-all and I added a swipe of red lipstick and statement earrings to finish off the outfit.

Dress, coat and bag: Thrifted (Gikomba)

2ND BLOG ANNIVERSARY

Hi all!! Today I mark two years since I started blogging. First and foremost, I would love to thank all of you for all the support you have given me over the last two years. Over the last year a lot has happened on the blog and in my life that has left me questioning what value I am adding to my readers' lives. I look at some of my previous posts and wonder how I can do things differently. I want to give you all a different experience when you visit Inches To Style. Hence, with the beginning of my 3rd year of blogging, I have re-examined my reasons for blogging and have decided to take steps to bring my original ideas to fruition. My one and obly reason for starting Inches To Style was to give women and men a guide to help them dress well. After carefully observing people's outfit choices in the CBD, I felt that something needed to be done. Someone needed to come out and say, "Hey, leggings are not pants!", "You look like you're wearing a...

WHAT I WORE: Chinos and Lace

Hi all!! I hope June has been going well for you. I don't wear trousers as much as I used to. In fact when i was in college, it was very hard to find me wearing a skirt or dress. But as the years have gone by, my style choices have also changed. I wore these chinos, again, for a job interview. It was for an artsy-related job so I paired it with a lace top and my new wedges. My main purpose of getting box braids was so that I can have a "healthy" looking up-do (read big). And this is what these braids have allowed me to do. Feather earrings and a basket completed my outfit. Outfit Details: Chinos: DIY, originally from Gikomba Market Lace top: Kawangware Market, Nairobi Wedges: Bus Station, Nairobi Basket: borrowed from Mum Earrings: Ngara Market, Nairobi Necklace: gift I have been working on a new Inches To Style which I had hoped to launch at the beginning of this month, but there are still a few technical things to sor...

Style Challenge Day 19 - Belt your outerwear

Day 19 of 30. I confess that I have reached that point in the style challenge where I am quickly running out of new styling ideas hence the multitude of black dresses that I have featured. I love wearing black and now that I need to start coming up with outfits that feature a lot more colour, I have to really rack my brain. Back to today's outfit. Lately, when it comes to outerwear, I have been gravitating towards cropped jackets and coats. But I still have a few longer ones like this army-inspired, khaki green, sleeveless jacket being one of them. I absolutely love wearing it with dresses and this black chiffon midi dress was no exception. Of course I went for black accessories with the black belt worn over the jacket, black patent leather pointy-toe flats and black earrings. What do you think of the outfit? Is belting your outerwear something that you would do? Do share in the comments below. Outfit Details: Dress and jacket: Thrifted Belt: old Shoes: Bus Sta...
